    2 awesome features you forgot: 1) click the little 'cog' icon next to the Q and it will slightly narrow the Q automatically as you boost, like an API EQ does. 2) The 'A' next to output volume auto-adjusts the output gain to be the same as you boost or cut frequencies. 👍

    Remarkable. I bought this plugin a couple of days ago and have been flummoxing and floundering around - being totally amazed but almost totally lost at the same time. Though realising that Pro-Q•3 is head and shoulders above Logic Pro X's pretty good - but basic EQs. Now, thanks to you sir, I am even more amazed at what this thing can do. I suspect that FabFilter has increased the intelligence level of the human race through the implementation of some highly intelligent and creative R&D. Wouldn't that be good.

    Dude just watch this video. It was really great. Thank you for taking the time to post something really formative. But you have a moment for a quick question?
    I honestly just got a hold of the software moments ago. I was going to email the company, but it just occurred to me that the pros, such as yourself lol might have the answer? Just for example purposes. If I am mastering a track and load pro q on the master channel for adjusting parameters in stereo and the sides only. Do you know if the plug-in has to be loaded once for both of these areas of adjustments (stereo and sides?)
    Or might I have to load it twice? With the parameters made for stereo on one plug-in.
    And the second pro q plug-in added for the side parameters. Basically separating the plug-ins for the separate areas of adjustments.
    Thanks for your time man. Cheers

    Hey dude great video. I had a question maybe you might be able to answer if you have a moment.
    Let's say I have pro Q3 on snare track. And I am creating two dynamic bands that I am going to set up as a side chain to two different instruments within that 1 pro Q3 plug-in I have on that snare track..
    I've noticed when I try to do this. And try to Side chain the two bands to two different instruments. They automatically default to the same one.
    Do you know if I have to have separate pro Q3 plug-ins on the snare track, one designated to the different instrument that I am going to side chain to?
    I thought I would be able to side chain multiple bands to any instrument for side chaining within the same one pro Q3 plug-in on the track.
    Hopefully I didn't confuse you.
    Anyway thanks again for posting such a great video

    • @samsmyers
      @samsmyers  2 года назад

      yea you can only have 1 sidechained instrument. So you would need to put 2 Pro-Q3s on your snare track with each one sidechained to a different instrument.
