Welcome to EQ Made Simple

Its great to have you here

Thanks for taking this next step with me and Im pretty excited to get started

You know what, EQ is probably the most powerful tool we have to transform our tracks

If you just think about it, all the favorite songs that you love to listen to, theyve all gone through a ton of different EQs to get where they are

But as powerful as EQ is to transform for good and make things sound really great, it can equally do the opposite and transform things for the worse.

So its a really powerful tool if we know how to use it

If we dont, then things can go wrong pretty fast

Its like giving a teenager a Ferrari to practice their driving

Not the best idea in the world

So I just want you to know that no matter how frustrating or confusing you found EQ perhaps in the past, thats all about a change.

Were going to start at the beginning, were going to go over the essentials, were going to cover all the basics, youre going to know exactly why we use EQ, what its for, the different controls, all that stuff, and Im going to show you practical sessions where Ill show you how I approach using EQ for all the major instrument groups, drums, vocals, bass, guitars, that kind of stuff.

And not only that, but Im even going to give you the session files so that you can load these up in your DAW and you can practice the same things that Im showing you

Because something happens when you actually put this stuff into practice and you see and you hear for yourself that you know what, I can do this

Its not that difficult.

So, Im just going to give you a quick tour of the program now

Im going to show you whats inside, whats installed, how were going to go about this, and then well get right into it.

So here we are inside the EQ Mate Simple program

By the way, Im just showing you around the downloaded version

If youre watching this online in your members area, exactly the same thing, same video, same everything

Its just a little bit quicker for me to jump around this one

So youll find a couple of things in your main folder or your main menu

Youll find the EQ Mate Simple Summary, which is a summary of basically all the key points in the whole program

Youll find this video, which is the one youre watching right now.

Youll find part one which is EQ essentials and basics, two is EQ mindsets and principles, three is examples and practice, four is using EQ in a mix, and then fifth youll find your resources folder

So Ive just numbered them over here to make sure that they stay in order.

So starting out with part 1, youll find the essentials and basics of EQ

Video 1 is called EQ Essentials and in this one youll find out what EQ is, where it came from, what its for, the reasons we use it, all that stuff

I really want to make sure that we cover the absolute essentials.

So thats the first step

Then in video two, weve got the EQ basics, and here Ill just be showing you EQ practically in a session, just take you through the different controls and how those work and stuff

Now, it is very, very, very basic, so if you are a little bit more experienced, you might want to skip this one, but I just want to make sure that, you know, if youve had doubts about some of this stuff before, I just want to make sure that were on the same page moving forward.

Then in the third video, weve got the five major reasons for using EQ, which Ill tell you about in the EQ Essentials, but in this video over here, Im just going to give you some practical examples of that

For example, one of the reasons is to fix frequency spectrum problems

So what does that mean? Well, Im going to show you practically a couple of examples.

And then finally, weve got the three simple EQ methods

And these are the three approaches that I use when using EQ throughout a mix

So just three simple things that you can follow

Yeah, just really useful

Then in part two, weve got the EQ mindsets and principles.

And here Ill be sharing with you my 16 laws of EQ

These are just the kind of things that, you know, no one tells you but you wish that someone had down the line

So theyre kind of just 16 nuggets of wisdom, ways of thinking about EQ that I think will really help you.

Then moving on to part three, weve got the EQ examples and practice

And here Ill be showing you actual sessions and how I approach EQing the major types of instruments

So bass, drums, guitars, keys, vocals

And Ill be taking you through kind of the key zones to look out for and where and how to EQ different instruments

Ill actually be showing you the EQ cheat sheets, which you can find in your resources folder.

And Ill be taking you through each one of these kind of zones and showing you how this affects that specific instrument

Ive also included practice files, so practice sessions over here, which you can actually follow along and do the same things that Im showing you

So I havent included the entire mix because that would just get messy and it would be extremely large to download, so Ive bounced down the mix, so youll find, for example, in the bass folder over here, mix without bass, and then youll find the bass without EQ, so you can use that one to practice on, and then Ive got the one that Ive already EQed so you can pair to that, and Ive even included the of the EQ so that you can review back to that and model that if you want to

So Im really just going to show you all my best stuff

Everything I know about EQing all these different instruments, Im going to show you.

Then in part 4, weve got using EQ in a mix

And here Im just going to take you through a mix session and kind of give you a broader approach to EQ

So Ill show you how I approach using EQ throughout a mix on all the different instruments together

And so here youre just going to see all the concepts, the techniques, the principles all come together and youre going to see how it actually applies practically in a mix.

And then finally, weve got the resources folder over here, which just has a couple of things inside it

I already told you about the EQ cheat sheets and the practice sessions

And by the way, the practice sessions are separate downloads

So if youve just downloaded the program, you wont see those in your resources folder

Youll need to download those separately.

Then first up weve got this EQ comparison video over here and here I just wanted to give you an idea of how different EQs actually sound

So Im going to play them on the same track and compare them one to the next so that you can actually hear for yourself, you know, this is the different character and the different colors and tones that each one of these has.

Then theres an EQ controls overview, just showing you all the main controls

Theres a printer-friendly version of that as well

And then theres the sonic consistency EQ chart, which I mentioned in the program

This is just going to help you balance the overall frequency spectrum of your mix and make sure that it sounds great no matter what system you play it on

And then finally, theres just the sound terms glossary over here.

You know, when we try and describe sound, we use all kinds of funny terms and things, so I just want to make sure that thats clear, so that when Im describing a kick drum as fat, for example, Im not saying that its morbidly obese, Im saying that its got good low end, the bass response is good, it sounds thick, that kind of thing

Now that ones pretty obvious, but some of the other ones might not be quite as obvious, so you might want to check that out.

And thats it

I hope you get a ton of value out of this program

If you go through this, if you put these things into practice, it will help you to dramatically improve your sound

Because EQ really is the most powerful tool we have to shape the way our mixes and our songs sound

And when you learn to use it the right way, it really is amazing what you can do with it

And with that said, Ill catch you in part 1 and session 1, the EQ essentials.
