the type of music and your audience. Fatten the bass, sweeten
the highs, brighten the mids. Since you are starting from a
“tuned” system, your ear will not be fooled into thinking bass
is too high when actually mids are too low, or that highs are
too weak when really the mids are too strong.
Fact: analyzers don’t have good taste—people do.
Analyzers consistently and
accurately “tell it like it is,” but
ultimately, personal judgment
determines what sounds good or
appropriate. In fact, final optimum
EQ settings, made after analyzer
testing, will vary greatly depend-
ing on the type of music, sound
pressure level, size of the venue
and disposition of the audience.
Conclusion: To consistently
obtain the best sound from your
system, use an analyzer and then
your ears, in that order. The
analyzer supplies the consistency
and calibration while your ears
supply the good taste.
