It's not that it produces a different curve from one section, e.g. verse, chorus, to another, rather that within the same small section of a track it will produce different results based around the specific 6 or so seconds it samples, so according to that logic one would have to break an instrument track down into multiples of 6 second sections. So I would argue there really should be a way to sample larger sections or whole tracks. If it's correcting for unpleasant resonances or suchlike, then these ought to remain consistent over entire tracks.
not necessarily at all but if you want something for that then get Zynaptiq's Unfilter

In practice I dont find any problems along the lines you mention. Works great for me.

Yeah, there's no doubt that the group unmasking feature has a significant effect, and can either do a decent job on certain material or bring some things to light which could be manually adjusted. I found that on well-mixed material it can still cut some very specific frequencies to increase clarity, which is interesting. I just think it could work near perfectly if there were more choice in how the analysing works.
Every day takes figuring out all over again how to f#ckin’ live.

I have smarteq, maybe I should test it more often just to compare.
It's actually a good idea to test it on every track of a complete mix to find out what it does.
I am going to do that, it could be done easily and quickly, maybe even a video,I will let you know

ok, I tested it and made a video.
I used smarteq3 on every track of a pop dance mix. The results might surprise you!?

Well, it obviously sometimes works and sometimes not, why doesn't it always work?

Who is using this ? What do you like most about it ..? Workflow ?

Is it worth the money ? The group hierarchy feature looks promising.

I have Pro Q 3 , but maybe they compliment each other ?!

Hoping for a black friday sale :)

Could someone point me to a list of the currently available profiles in eq 3? There's none in the manual and I did not find one on the sonible website. Have there been any updates?

Thank you. Appreciated! :)
However, that's a bit of a downer. I remember having read they wanted to add a lot more profiles. Almost a year ago. Sigh.

Why don't you just create your own profiles from your favourite reference tracks ?



Explains pretty well how to make them

This.
I have two of their products. I bought them to use for times when I am lazy or need to work quick.. But for neither of them, one being Smart EQ 3 have they added any new profiles.
