Toronto, Canada – Aspiring sound engineers and musicians need to look no further than their iPhone or iPad to hone their equalizer (EQ) skills. Today, a major update to “hearEQ: Ear training for musicians and engineers” launched for iOS. It’s a simple app with a powerful promise: if you learn the qualities of each frequency band – for example, cutting 4 kHz puts sound in the background – then you can make equalization work for you, and truly transform your live and recorded sound into something professional and beautiful.
Features:
* Build practical, real-life audio mixing skills by practising on your own tracks
* A special Learning mode lets you explore different EQ settings and learn about each one
* Custom exercises allow you to train on just a couple frequency bands to start, and then work up as your skills improve
* Learn using a 10-band equalizer, just like you’d find on many professional sound mixers (and iTunes too)
New in Version 2:
* No tracks on your device? No problem. A built-in practice track is now included with hearEQ
* An advanced 30-band EQ is now available as part of the Advanced EQ module
* Fully responsive across devices and portrait/landscape orientations
“Whether you’re trying to make the vocals rise above the mix at a show, or mixing two similar guitar parts on a record, EQing can have a profound effect,” said Alex Andrews, hearEQ’s creator. “hearEQ builds the practical skills you need to identify which frequency bands you can harness to transform your sound, whether for a live show, a new recording, or even your home stereo.”
Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch
* Requires iOS 9.3 or later
* 40.6 MB
