    IDK what that actual Dutch word was, but based on the context and your delivery I'ma say the best translation would be "obstinate". "Stubborn" has more of a negative connotation, like you dig in just to be defiant. Obstinate is more of a resistance born from a confidence in what you know, and being willing to stick with it even when pressured from the outside 😊

      i had tried Frei:raum and Proximity a while ago but couldn't get the desired results… but i have to admit that, at the time, the acoustical problems in the recording booth might have been to severe (just foam absorbers and some diffusion). it took my a stunningly long time to realize that the cure was to not spend more money on more plugins (i had bought soothe2 and others already) but to save some bucks and gradually upgrade the acoustic treatment :-)
      now, with vastly improved room treatment, smart:EQ3 does a good job for me. i had paid €49 for V2 in the april sale and now €29 for the upgrade to V3, so i also saved a few euros compared to the V3 intro offer of €89 (at least that's what the email i received yesterday said). i get better results now with V3 than with V2, but maybe i didn't try hard enough with the earlier version.

    so here's my thing, and it's just a thing that works for me in getting results i can live with. if i have to do massive corrections in EQ (lots of moves and/or big moves) then i probably screwed up the sound. now yeah, i'm working on my own garbage, and that when you work on a client session, you probably don't have that kind of opportunity. but i just finished mixing an EP and i fully adopted that thought process that if i find myself fighting the sounds with EQ, then i should find a better sound, get a better performance (out of myself) etc. so..... while this plugin is very clever, it kind of goes counter to the way i (and many others) think about EQ, in making sure to get the right sound (that works in the mix with only minor adjustments) at the source.

Working on a template for my streaming jamsessions, this looks like it could help out with that...!

  • @sammiller9855
    @sammiller9855 3 роки тому +2

    From my testing, it appears the universal preset profile in Smart EQ3 at 100% is close to -4.5db/oct noise, with some slight differences. Eyeing it approximately, I see a slight 2db bump in the lows up to 400hz, a slight 2db dip from 1.5hz to 8hz, then another pump starting 8hz and peaking 3db at 15hz. I suspect this was determined in part by analyzing the spectral profile of a large number of pop songs. Unfortunately, as of April, Sonible is not no longer offering their simplified auto EQ plugin Balancer as a free download. Although lacking almost all the customization features, besides the level of mix, there were a couple of things I like more than the full version--less Cpu intensive and the ability to easily choose Warm, Neutral, and Bright spectrums.

  • @UltromanTheTacoman
    @UltromanTheTacoman 3 роки тому +6

    The A.I. is used to find the best mix for each waveform, by comparing your waveforms to the waveforms it was trained on, and for each of their waveforms they've made presets which it blends once it has found the waveforms it resembles. That's the simplified version and there are many ways to do it. Some A.I. is literally a black box that's trained to categorize things, while others are more adjustable, and each have their own strengths and weaknesses. This, I expect is a black box, but it is used in layers, so its usefulness is multiplied.

      It’s only scary when you mystify it, believe it has some kind of it’s own consciousness. But it doesn’t. When you know that it’s built by humans and how it works, that it’s just a smarter way of putting together code, comparing frequencies and how the results turn the knobs, its just another plugin. In 10 years you will say “lol this is a joke” but at the moment it’s advanced. It doesn’t make decisions on its own, based on feelings, like humans. Its just a complex calculator. The only thing that’s “smart” about it is the people that made it.

  • @nodaysback1

    The *listener's* EQ curve will be influenced by the frequency response of their speakers and by room acoustics.
    Where as, the plugin will generate a curve based on analysing the data not the actual audio. If you compare the two EQ curves, they shouldn't look the same because they're not actually correcting the same frequencies.

      Nope! As the name suggests, Soothe is more about "rounding out" a buss/ track. It's meant to kind of throw on at the end, or mix after/into if your source is harsh. This is claiming to actually be an EQ in terms of surgical, automatic eq'ing.

    Hey guys, I'm fairly new to mixing but was curious if anyone thinks this would replace the multiple eqs you'd usually use for a vocal chain? Could you get optimal results with this eq only? I know everyone's ears are different and this is subjective but I'm curious as I'm considering getting this to speed things up.....

    Spectral EQ can help a lot in genres like Industrial or experimental Electronica to combine sounds, that generally won`t fit to something new. But I think, that's more a goal of Spectral Layers or else. Think about 20 Hz by Capricorn, a record you could't remix in another smart way.

I expect after add of the EQ and after learn it reduce 1 khz noticable. but i can hear no diffrence. it seem snake oil with the AI learning and frequency correction. it use eq curves that normaly let sound RAW sound better
