when they say narrow bandwidth (Q), what number fall into that category and when they say wider bandwidth (Q), what numbers fall into that category.

Narrow BW= high Q number
Wide BW = low Q number

Ford Van said:By the way, not all eq's follow that formula.
Checking the eq's that I usually use, or might use:
Sonalksis 517 does
Sonitus does
Waves Q and Lin Phase does
Paris EQ does
Steinberg QMetric does
Sony Track EQ doesn't
Timeworks Mastering EQ doesn't
Steinberg Q doesn't
So really, one should check and use their ears.
I find it interesting that Steinberg does it both ways! Talk about confusing things!
Also, I generally find that the "numbers" that represent Q on an eq is absolutely meaningless to use as a "comparison" to the Q of another eq. 2 on one eq might sound like 4 on another. You know what I mean?
