Anyone using an Alesis DEQ830 digital EQ?
For the price it seems a good deal, 8x30 bands EQ.
Does it sound good? Ease of use?
Another question, is it better to compress an EQed signal or to EQ a
compressed signal (drums)?
TIA
Depends...What price are you getting on the Alesis? It is a digital
graphic eq...it isn't a Pultec EQP with tons of musicality...heck,
isn't parametric...do you like the intervals and the Q on each...do
you think theywill work for you. On your follow up post, get the room
as good as you can get it...trying to "eq" a bad room to sound "good"
is the equivalent of polishing a turd...yes you can do it...but why?
I'd be more inclined to say that it will make a bad sound into a different
sound. You basically can't fix the sound of a bad room after it's been
recorded, but if it already sounds like crap and you have time for turd
polishing, then go for it and hope you get lucky. You may find something
interesting, or you may just waste more time.
