EQ Primer

[DarkFriend]

Can anyone recommend a tutorial on basic EQ tips/tricks?

I have a great handle on panning, levels, compression, and how to make each track sound the way I want. My final mixes sound good, but I know that there are a number of overlapping frequencies. If I could tweak these, I think my mixes would have more "space" and the individual instruments would come out of the mix even more.

Thanks!

Saw that post, but the first link doesn't work. Thought I'd inquire about new primers/guides as that post on this forum is from 2002. Thanks.

I have a 30+ page word doc on my computer that I could email ya. It's too big to attach here, and I don't feel like breaking it into smaller files. It's got a lot of recording stuff (not just EQ) but I think it would help. Just let me know.

Actually, I have 2 such documents. Both are good.

Edit - it turns out I have about 5 such documents! You know, I probalby should read this stuff myself again. I coudl definitely use the refresher...

If anyone else wants this stuff, just PM me your email addy, and I'll send them too ya.
