CORRECTION: I said I sang an A at 440 but I actually sang an A an octave below 440 at 220 so the harmonica are above NOT below!!

I’ve got a pretty good understanding of EQ, but I’m watching this anyway because…hello, it’s Nathan James Larsen. Who’s to say he can’t teach me something new?
-
Your videos are all very clear and really helpful, just wanted to let you know that I appreciate it very much! cheers mate

I also use EQ modulation to make a nice high pass low pass filter that changes in lead melodys. By moving the bell up and down the spectrum and recording the movements. It's best to have a second bell modulation moving around to reduce peaks that might clip. I do it in nearly every song I make to a greater or lesser extent.

Love the way you explain things! Very helpful😄👌 I always look forward to new videos!
-
Ok, Nathan, you've got me. My EQ'ing totally looks like a topographical map with all the "surgical cuts" I've been making due to sweeping and boosting to find "bad frequencies :) I might need to cut back on the sonic surgery haha. Really appreciated this, even as I've been working on this stuff for a few years now.
