    Attempting to answer 4k vs 8k. Like I believe you stated in a different video, human speech mainly resides in 1-4k. Because of this the human ear is shaped and sculpted in a way (evolution/god/different discussion) that acts as an amplifier for these frequencies. If you look at an EQ on master track, the bass side of the spectrum is usually physically a higher amplitude, but we still hear the mid spectrum more so even though it's technically quieter. Its the shape of our ear that's boosting those. And the shape of our ear won't boost 8k the same as 4k. 4k is also the very top of that sensitive zone, and 8k being the (not super boosted) octave of the very top of our sensitive zone = Noice 😎👍

    Useful tips - been putting most of these in practice when I mix/create drum kits on my electronic drum modules' Master bus. I find adding 1-2dB of 4Khz or 5Khz at a Q of 3.0 or 4.0 on a drum bus as a "5th" EQ boost adds a smidgen of bite and cut to the drum kit. All personal taste. I believe CLA and Adam Getgood subscribe to that practice at times in their drum mixes too.

    Yes and no. The difference with live eq moves is that you’ll be limited by what you can do based on the room. You might normally boost 100 hz but the room fundamental is 100 hz so you’ll find yourself maybe cutting this frequency instead.

    @JST, the problem with these tips that suggest doing certain things to certain frequencies, is that it all depends on the source material and what type of sound you're aiming at. Some snare might need boosting at around 200Hz, some might need cutting. Some might need no adjustment at all. The only way to know is by listening. I'd like to see a video where you divide the _whole_ audio spectrum into different frequency ranges and define what qualities the sound has in each, and what impact they make in the mix. For example 150-300Hz: punch, muddiness etc. Too much of X frequencies and the sound might become A, too little, and it might become B. Things like that. This way your viewers could learn what to listen to when mixing, and make the decisions themselves, instead of thinking they should do specific things just because.

    Dude, if you want the kick to stand out more in the mix, you have a volume knobe for it, or you should. When you boost EQ on an auxiliary with various individual instruments inside, you will bring up ALL of the frequencies. In that case, you bring up not only the kick drum, but all the low noise from the other instruments who also interact inside that range of frequencies. If you boost eq for a kick drum to stand out more on a master track of a mix, you must be correcting a mistake previously made I guess because it's not the best way from what I know. Yes, boosting eq can be done in many cases with volume knobs, so thats why many profesionals nearly never use or use just a little bit of boosting for general correction.
