Are you using dynamic EQ? Want to know the differences between a static EQ and a dynamic EQ? Dynamic EQ is a new innovative type of EQ that allows for more precise control over the frequency response of a track. Dynamic EQs adapt dynamically to changes in the audio signal.

In short, a dynamic EQ is acting like an equalizer and a compressor almost in one. It can be set so that the dynamic EQ is analyzing the incoming audio and reacting to the signal based on the parameters set. For example, the threshold, just like a compressor, will initiate when the EQ starts to boost or cut. So you can have the EQ dynamically boost or cut based on the parameters set including attack and decay. This type of EQ can provide greater control when looking to surgically fix issues in the mix.
