Matthias Richter Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 Is it possible (internal switch smwhere?) to have the prefade Directouts of a CS208D V1 pre EQ? Want to use the EQ in the mix but not on the Isos. Found nothing in the manual btw. Matthias Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPSharman Posted December 15, 2014 Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 From what I recall, no... If you use EQ in mix but not in ISO, then every time they need to use your ISO, they'll have to somehow recreate your EQ in order for it to match. This might be fine if they're remixing everything from ISOs, but if they're pulling a word or a line from an ISO, it won't match your mix. Then they'll have to remix it all so it matches. Better to not use EQ at all if there's post sound on the project. What you can do on set, they can do better and more accurately with better tools and monitoring. If you do use a TINY bit, better that it follows in the ISOs. If there is no post, then make it sound how you want, and it makes no difference if EQ is pre or post. My opinion, and based on lots of chats with post. BTW - the wrong EQ is much harder to fix, so they prefer a flat recording whenever possible.

Matthias Richter Posted December 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2014 I wanted to play with the EQ for perspective. Not on dialog but an exterial plant for background with reduced high freq. Not too important but made me think. I am with you on EQing dialog.
