I always asked myself how the average curves compare to accurate curves. Of course I always have the pre ringing in mind and check for it, but for the most part I can use the linear phase eq without hearing its pre ringing. When swapping the eq for a linear phase eq, the kickdrum didnt change character when EQing the basstrack. I heard that a kickdrum would change its character when I EQed a basstrack with a "normal" minimum phase eq. Boom 2 is an award-wining volume booster and equalizer designed for Apple devices. You can use a linear phase eq when you need to combine some tracks that are in the low mids and bass spectrum. On a whole song I rarely hear that pre ringing is an issue.Īnd yes if I am tracking and monitoring through it, I will use the minimum phase setting for the lowest latency. The biquad filters like peak filters are just too fast to have issues. Using the channel command is alright but this only has an impact when using Graphic EQ. As your voice is louder than the noise, the noise isnt hearable.

Only when your voice is above a certain level the gate is opened and your voice gets through. Especially in the lower frequencies, the pre ringing can be quite prominent. In all the 8 years Im supporting Equalizer APO and developing/supporting the popular Peace interface, these kind of filters dont have any issues. Either by recording a noise profile and subtracting this from the mic input (so all noise frequencies are removed). When I solo Drums and Percussion, I will switch to mixed phase or minimum phase. And raising the volume in those areas with an EQ will also make the distortion more audible as well. And raising the volume in those areas with an EQ will also make the distortion more audible as well. But you are right in some situations there is pre ringing.
