    So happy to see a piano on there... Every video I'm coming across is for bands / drums / vocals / midi etc... As an acoustic pianist, I'm pretty clueless as to even what DAW would be best, let alone what to do with the EQ once I download one. 🤔

    to be fair, 30-50Hz is pretty valuable in dance music, especially when it comes to clubs & huge sub woofers. but in metal & pop punk & stuff, i agree.

    what are your thoughts on clip to zero method? you prob know but if you don't it's clipping each track individually so there's little to nothing to clip/limit at the end (master). so curious to hear your thoughts

    Now I just need a company to make an EQ int the manner he was showing the freq. ranges lol Literally blocked off into sections. Would make EQ-ing so much more helpful at least for me when using Parametrics. Also, with footnotes describing what the ranges do: power, warmth, etc. Just as he described in the video.
