Hi, my name is Ismael Pacheco. Im from San Jose, Costa

Rica.

Today, Im going to try to explain you how the EQ could

manipulate the timbre throughout the frequencies.

We can explain that the Equalization is the process of

adjusting the balance between frequency components

within an electronic signal. The equalizer tends to

strengthen (boost) or weaken (cut) the energy of specific

frequency bands.

On this example, you will notice how I can manipulate the

timbre of the sound using a 3band EQ without affect its

wave form but at the same time, giving it a different color.

As you can see, on this video I decide to use a square wave

form. What Im going to do right now, is modifying the

timbre using the low freqs knobs, but also changing the high

freqs knobs.

On this moment, had seen how the low and high freqs

altered the sound by itself, Im going to bypass them and

manipulate the mid-range frequencies, obtaining a whole

different result.

Varying the perception of the humans ear on the same

sound, same waveform, just altering the frequencies.

With this, I want to show you that a good balance, a good

mix within the EQ can obtain different results and apply to

diverse genres, based on our ears and how we perceive

them.

Something that I call, musical taste

At last, the most important on how we use the EQ,

wherever a live performance, an audio track, or like on this

example, a sound, is to transmit our very personal

perception of sound, since the frequencies are present each

day of our lives.
