We have no idea what you are talking about, and that image makes it even worse.

Being honest here.
Your other topic rang alarm bells because of the way you asked questions, but we tried to help. Youve now posted something about EQ, but we have no idea how to respond. Please have a think about how you ask questions. We cannot help if we are scratching our heads trying to work out what the posts mean? Chat, explain, question and think how we will read them?
 
I looked up 'equalizer apo', and found it is just a brand.
Isn't that picture at the top a frequency analysis?
 
I got stuck with the first line.

If he has APO, then the display shows a signal in it? So it seems to say which analyser works with the APO analyser? Clearly the first post shows a frequency curve, so it must be working already? My head hurts.
 
I don't have a clue how you are using your Equalizer plugin, but if you are using a DAW, then you can put in your VST EQ plugin, then add the BlueCat Frequency Analyzer. As long at the analyzer comes after the EQ, it will show what effect your adjustments make.


If you are using it as a system adjustment tool, much like the sound enhancements in Windows,, there's no way to add anything to the program. In any event, it would have no purpose in that situation unless you are measuring sound from the speakers, as with REW with a calibrated reference microphone.
 
Not a "Real Time" analyser but I have used Right Mark Analyser for many years to check for hums and other noises.
One restriction is that it only works* with 16bit .wavs but that is hardly onerous. If printing out the graphs, invert page colour. White on black uses toner up PDQ!

*That might have been change. I have not checked for updates for ages!

IT PLUGGED it in but it doesnt show the curvature
Are you talking about visual analysis? An O-scope? Thats where you see the music in real time , amplitude vs. time, at a range.

O scopes(oscilloscopes) are sometimes integrated into the synth equipment. Korg uses them. Seeing the square wave or sine wave to then match another's design.

You have to play something to get any analysis. You can't analyze silence.

Put a track in your DAW and hit play. You'll see a cumulative data curve as well as the instantaneous information.

You can put some white noise on the track which is simply noise with sound with the same level at all frequencies. Then you should see something like this. Then as you adjust the EQ, you can see the curve dip or peak.

Now, my question is that if you don't understand how something this basic works, what are you going to do with the information other than to look at some meaningless picture on a screen?
 
Your screenshot shows the standalone app, where is your daw? Show us your daw screen with the app running from an nsert point.
