Match EQ parameters in Logic Pro for iPad
Match EQ offers the parameters described in this section.
Match EQ parameters
Current Material Learn button: Start or stop the process of learning the frequency spectrum of the project you want to match with the source file or input.Reference Material Learn button: Start or stop the process of learning the frequency spectrum of the source file or input.
Crnt/Ref Actions pop-up menus: Choose and execute commands from either the Current or Reference Actions pop-up menu.
Clear Current Material/Reference Spectrum: Clears the Current Material Spectrum or Reference Spectrum.
Copy Current/Reference Spectrum: Copies the Current Material Spectrum or Reference Spectrum to the Clipboard.
Paste Current/Reference Spectrum: Pastes the Current Material Spectrum or Reference Spectrum from the Clipboard.
Match button: Match the frequency spectrum of the current material to that of the template (source) file.
Phase pop-up menu: Choose the operational principle of the filter curve.
Linear: Prevents processing from altering the signal phase, but latency is higher.
Minimal: Alters the signal phase (slightly), but latency is reduced.
Minimal, Zero Latency: Adds no latency, but has a higher CPU overhead than the other options.
Channel Link knob: Change the way the EQ curve is applied to stereo channels.
When set to 100%, both channels share a common EQ curve.
When set to 0%, a separate filter curve is applied for the left and right channel.
Settings between 0 and 100% blend these values with your filter curve changes for each channel. This results in a hybrid curve.
Note: The Channel Link parameter is unavailable when you use the effect on a mono channel.
Smoothing knob and field: Set the amount of smoothing for the filter curve, using a constant bandwidth set in semitone steps. A value of 0.0 has no impact on the filter curve. A value of 1.0 means a smoothing bandwidth of one semitone. A value of 4.0 means a smoothing bandwidth of four semitones (a major third). A value of 12.0 means a smoothing bandwidth of one octave, and so on.
Note: Smoothing has no effect on any manual changes you make to the filter curve.
- Apply Amount slider and field: Determine the impact of the filter curve on the signal.
Values above 100% magnify the effect.
Values below 100% reduce it.
Negative values (−1% to −100%) invert the peaks and troughs in the filter curve.
A value of 100% has no impact on the filter curve.
Limit Boost/Limit Cut buttons: Activate to set and adjust boost and cut limits with the corresponding faders.
Max Boost fader: Drag to set the maximum positive value (boost) the EQ curve can’t exceed.
Max Cut fader: Drag to set the maximum negative value (cut) the EQ curve can’t exceed.
Ease-In/Ease-Out button: Activate the following four parameters: Ease-In Low, Ease-In High, Ease-Out Low, and Ease-Out High to adjust the EQ curve based on those settings.
Ease-In Low/High sliders: Drag the left and right handles to set a frequency band. The EQ curve is adjusted so frequencies below its low frequency mark result in a flat 0 dB curve (no EQ effect), and frequencies above its high frequency mark are processed by the actual EQ curve. The range between the low and high frequency mark represents the ease-in area where the EQ curve is gradually increasing from 0 dB to its actual values.
Ease-Out Low/High sliders: Drag the left and right handles to set a frequency band. The EQ curve is adjusted so frequencies below its low frequency mark are processed by the actual EQ curve, and frequencies above its high frequency mark result in a flat 0 dB curve (no EQ effect). The range between the low and high frequency mark represents the ease-out area where the EQ curve gradually decreases its actual values down to 0 dB.
