EQ & Compression: Tone Shaping Fundamentals Workshop: June 13

$300.00

To Be Scheduled, 10am-2pm
EQ and compression are powerful tools. Used poorly, they can wreck a mix. Used well, they elevate everything.

This workshop is ideal for artists mixing their own work, early career engineers, and producers ready to refine their ear. You will work on real session material, apply subtractive EQ, shape tone intentionally, and learn how compression actually behaves.

You will learn:

  • How to read and understand the frequency spectrum

  • When to cut versus boost

  • How threshold, ratio, attack, and release change feel

  • How to avoid over processing

You will leave knowing when and why to use these tools, not just how to turn the knobs.


Overview

A practical deep dive into EQ and compression using real session material.

Participants will:

  • Understand frequency ranges

  • Use subtractive EQ

  • Apply compression intentionally

  • Recognize over-processing
