If you are reading this, I may be in danger.
I was working on a super-secret EQ project with REDACTED CLASSIFIED and it's dangerously close to blowing up...
I'm hiding in a cabin in the mountains at the moment and I am currently ok, but every strange noise brings the paranoia back.
Every time the floorboards creak outside, or the wind rustles the pine trees a little too harshly, I worry that it might be the end.
I wish I could tell you where I am, but I don't want to disclose my location for fear of extraction. I don't want to get kidnapped and thrown into a black site before I share this with you.
Needless to say, I can't share much, but I managed to salvage this information before the capsule self-destructed.
The piece of paper is torn but I managed to put it back together and I think it hits all the right ranges that you should know about.
They wanted to keep it to themselves and I couldn't let that happen...this needs to be public information!
If I help even ONE person fix their frequency issues with EQ so that they can confidently finish and release their records, I will know my life's work has not been for naught.
They wanted to keep these frequency fixes away from the world, but it's too valuable to be kept secret by a shadowy sound corporation.
I only hope this got to you in time...please make sure you put it to good use!
- Boom - 50 - 150 Hz range
- Mud - 150 - 250 Hz range
- Boxy/Honky - 300 - 600 Hz range
- Cheap - 700 - 900 Hz range
- Nasal - 900 - 1,500 Hz range
- Harsh - 2 - 3 kHz range
- Piercing - 4 - 6 kHz
- Sibilant - 6 - 8 kHz
- Hyped - 10+ kHz
This is the secret sound formula they wanted to keep hidden but now you have the power to transform your mixes into balanced and clear records.
With the limited time I had left before I went into hiding I managed to put even more EQ information into EQ Strategies - Your Ultimate Guide to EQ.
Lieven messaged me on my burner phone recently and told me that the guide was helping him "avoid boominess and muddiness," and helped him "bring air and presence to make my mix sound better in general."
He told me he had no negative comments on the course and called it an absolute must if you want to learn how to deal with cutting and boosting frequencies in the different layers of the music spectrum.
He ended his message asking me to share this message with the rest of you, "If you want to make progress in mixing your music, check this out! You will love it!!"
Get the guide here before they get into my servers and take all this information down:
