A piano’s highest note, for instance, lives at 4,186 Hz (around 4.2kHz). Sounds called overtones (harmonics) extend above each fundamental pitch across the spectrum, and an EQ will affect them, too.

However, the human ear is only capable of hearing sounds between 20Hz and 20,000Hz, so that's the range covered by a standard EQ. The audio spectrum is usually represented as a graph, which you ...

Now when we place a boosting band in our visual EQ spectrum, we see that it only applies the boost to harmonics in the scale we’ve selected. Then if you apply an attenuation band, ...

Early EQ units like the Pultec are often unintuitive to modern producers, but the standard ‘parametric’ workflow got going later with units like the GML 8200 (which we’ll discuss later), establishing ...
