Equalizers in Logic Pro for iPad
An equalizer (commonly abbreviated as EQ) shapes the sound of incoming audio by changing the level of specific frequency bands.
Equalization is one of the most-used audio processes, both for music projects and in post-production work for video. You can use EQ to subtly or significantly shape the sound of an audio file, an instrument, a vocal performance, or a project by adjusting specific frequencies or frequency ranges.
All EQs are specialized filters that allow certain frequencies to pass through unchanged while raising (boosting) or lowering (cutting) the level of other frequencies. Some EQs can be used in a “broad-brush” fashion, to boost or cut a large range of frequencies. Other EQs, particularly parametric and multiband EQs, can be used for more precise control.
The simplest types of EQs are single-band EQs, which include low cut and high cut, lowpass and highpass, shelving, and parametric EQs. See Single Band EQ.
Multiband EQs such as Channel EQ or Linear Phase EQ combine several filters in one unit, enabling you to control a large part of the frequency spectrum. Multiband EQs let you independently set the frequency, bandwidth, and Q factor of each frequency spectrum band. This provides extensive and precise tone-shaping of any audio source, be it an individual audio signal or an entire mix.
Some EQs, particularly vintage units, are known for the distinctive sonic coloration they impart on the sound. See Vintage EQ collection.
Other EQs allow you to analyze incoming audio to capture a sonic “fingerprint” which you can then apply to other audio material. See Match EQ.

User Guide conventions
Logic Pro for iPad plug-ins have two primary views:
Tile view, which shows a few key parameters in the Plug-ins area
Details view, where you can access all plug-in parameters
Throughout the guide, parameters available in Tile view are indicated by
