Sampling EQs

In this video, I explain how to clone or copy EQ settings using impulse responses. It's a straightforward process, and I'll walk you through it. While I use an EQ curve analyzer to demonstrate, it's not necessary.

The key is using tools like the Ozone 8 EQ to capture and replicate the settings, either with a rolling sampler or an impulse signal. I also show how to work with zero-latency and linear-phase modes and how to use convolution reverb to replicate the EQ. Let's dive in!

- Start with an EQ curve analyzer and Ozone 8 EQ.

- Zero-latency mode affects phase, while linear-phase keeps it flat but adds 64ms latency.

- You can clone EQ settings by sampling them with an impulse response.

- The rolling sampler is the easiest method to capture the EQ output.

- Alternatively, use a Dirac signal to sample and bounce the result.

- Convolution reverb replicates the EQ settings by loading the sampled impulse response.

Let me know if you have any questions!

pro tip: Enable "Trim Silence" in the rolling sampler, to automatically get the right size of the sample.
