HI

•My name is Constant

• I’m 27

• From France

• I have a very slow internet so I can’t upload video but I will try to entertain you with this keynote.

I’m sure you saw “Sound City”(if not you should it’s a great movie), so I wanted to set an EQ like the Neve

Board they had there, but I could not found the settings of this EQ so I will

show you how to set up the EQ of the more recent 88RS Neve Board in

Logic.

This board can be found in Ocean Way, Abbey Road (in the picture), AIR, The Village, Sony Pictures, 20th Century Fox and Skywalker

Sound.

From the manual I found that the EQ is in 2 parts.

First we have an Input Filter with a low pass and a high pass filter.

Then we have a Channel Module with 4 bands.

I re-used the project of week 3 and inserted an EQ

This the default setting of the Channel EQ in Logic

First we want to turn off everything, you don’t want unnecessary band, it will

decrease your CPU usage

First band we want is a High Pass filter. On the board we have a 12 dB/Oct reduction with frequency ranges from

31.5Hz to 315HzThis will get rid of noise

Then we want a Low Pass filter. Again we have a 12 dB/Oct

reduction but with frequency ranges from 7.5kHz to 18kHz

Next we need a High Shelving Filter with a range

from 33Hz to 440HzOn this board the 4 bands can cut or boost by 20dB. But you should avoid to boost too much.

We also want a High Shelving Filter with a range

from1.5kHz to18kHz

Next we need some Low Mid-Band EQ with a peak range from120Hz to 2kHz

and Q from 0.4 to 10

Last band on this board is an High Mid-Band with a peak range from 0.8kHz to 9kHz

and a Q from 0.4 to 10

To save this EQ click on the arrow and select Save As

Just an example of setting of this EQ
