Excellent idea! There is one on my way to where I am going right now!
Medium chocolate dipped cone for me!

Why not - He was asking - that's all. I assume for some sort of aural experiment.Farview said:Why would you want to equate a parametric to the controls on a graphic?
It doesn't make any difference what the numbers say. Twist the knobs until it sounds right, then look at the numbers and write them down. Not the other way around.

The Sonic Foundry parametric plug is set up the same way where they don't use "Q" values, but rather spit it out straight as measuring the width in decimal increments of an octave. It sure is a more intuitive way of looking at it than "Q" is; I'd actually prefer reading that value by octave, because that directly relates to my ear better than an abstract number like "Q".SonicAlbert said:That's similar to how Klark-Teknik designed their DN410 parametric. Each Q control has a range of 1/12th of an octave to 2 octaves. So you can eq individual notes or broadly over 2 octaves. The marking are from .08 to 2 on the Q knob. The next markings up from .08 are: .3 for a third of an octave, .5 for half an octave, 1 for an octave, and 2 for two octaves. A really well set up eq if you ask me, and it sounds good too.
