Using Equalization Filters in Final Cut Express
All of the Final Cut Express EQ filters use a combination of three controls. This example
looks at the Parametric Equalizer filter:
 Frequency: This slider lets you select the audio frequency you want to boost or attenuate.
The lowest available frequency varies from 10 Hz for the High Pass filter to 80 Hz for the
3 Band Equalizer. The highest available frequency for all EQ filters is 20,000 Hz.
 Q: This slider adjusts the bandwidth of the filter resonance, whose frequency value
has been set with the Frequency slider.
 Gain: This setting controls how much you’ll be boosting or attenuating the specified
frequency range.
