Avid Site EQs

AvidTip
Written By Jeff Greenberg

I'm a big believer in EQing nearly everything; Speakers (goodbye everything under 80hz, as well as a rolloff above 3k), Music (reverse that - take out where speakers ranges are in the music), etc.

And in Avid, the EQs are real time. ​

I tend to use the same ones over and over and over again. Sure, I could save them in a bin. But why not save them in Avid's own EQ bin - making future reuse faster/easier.

​Open the following "bin" called Site_Effects (from the location below) and drag your EQ into it - for access as a preset built into the Avid tool.

Add to the site Eqs: 

(Windows) drive:\Program Files\Avid\Avid editing application\ SupportingFiles\Site_Effects 
(Macintosh) Macintosh HD/Applications/Avid editing application/ SupportingFiles/Site_Effects

Avid tips like this will be in sessions at NAB/Post Production World​

This is my really short bio. Once upon a time, I was a premed student who foolishly took a film class (and I was over 25 at the time!) I now teach the technologies involved in film/video. Feel free to ask me anything you'd like!
