Solve Problems and Create a Clear and Present Mix With EQ

What is the difference between a mix that sounds muddy and undefined and a mix that sounds crystal clear with definition and intelligibility? It's in the EQ. While often misunderstood, equalizers are the bread and butter of good sound reinforcement. Knowing the basics of EQing is one of the most critical aspects of running the mixing console. EQ lets you correct problems and/or enhance the sound, making your mix cohesive, clear and defined.
