I've been learning Logic over the past few months, & your great videos have been SO helpful. Your strength is in explaining technical stuff in way that makes total sense to a guy that just wants to play & record music. You are much appreciated, Colin.

Awesomeness!!!🤘🏼🔥 appreciate the lables in the EQ window.

Ever since I got the principles explained for EQ in the mixing course, it all clicked for me. It's fun to work with EQ now knowing what I am doing but also understanding in what frequency to boost or cut. Once again Colin, thank you for being able to explain all the technical theory in a language that is easy for us to understand.

Thank you for this video

I cannot tell you how grateful I am for these videos about vocals. I am trying to Master the compositions of my late wife which had been recorded about 15 years ago with terrible mobile phones. I was able to separate her vocals from the melody via Bandlab. I am cleaning them up from clicks and noise with audacity I will play the Melodies again with my keyboard and try to remaster the songs in Logic Pro. . But being a mezzo soprano, her voice still sounds like a vinyl recording from 1900s. I will try to give her voice some body and presence with the help of this video. I want to thank you very very much for this, and I am open to any suggestions.

Loved your video Colin. Is there any equivalent of the vintage tube plugin you have used at the end for GargeBand users?

This is all new to me. I'm just starting to record vocals so thank you for the great explanation on how to EQ them.

Great video love the way you explain the eq process. Thank you again💯💯💯💯

Excellent video Boss! Thanks to you i have improved the whole mix in my music and yes Eq is such a powerful and important tool. And to clearify the steps for how to use it the way you do makes it easy to follow and that is gold worth. Great work as usual 💪👍

Muy buen trabajo Colin. I am about to change to Logic but I'm still having some issues mixing lead vocals in garageband for final work. this video is helping me to see better my work.thanx

Thank you for the vids, you have helped me a lot with my music

Great video, Colin! Your explanations (and demonstrations) are so clear and helpful!

you really are the gold brick champion of EQ tips!

Thank you for this video, lots of help.

You should make a video about distortion, what it is, how it works, how to use it on vocals . This would really help me so plzzz if you see this. This would really mean a lot!!!

This could not have been posted at better time! Literally mixing vocals tomorrow!

Great video with great information. Thanks for sharing the different frequencies and how it changes the track

Great explanation of the main elements of vocal EQ. I pretty much always do the high pass and boost somewhere between 3k and 5k and do the rest as needed. I am finding myself using Pultec type EQ a lot, it does wonders to an incredibly wide range of tracks. I use Tunca's Rare-SE which I find great sounding. I'm sure you too use the Pultec magic trick of doing both boost and attenuation on the low frequencies resulting in amazingly useful curves.

Thank you. Never hurts to freshen up. I have enjoyed all your tutorials. Hey, here's a question: how do EQ bands interact, i.e., when the high pass filter is up around 150 and the next on-board band definer (the orange shelf) is left of that (say, around 90), is the orange band obliterated by the "red" cutoff? I assume the high pass prevails. But am I wasting energy and head room by not turning the orange band off altogether?
