Fairlight Track EQ and Dynamics Presets

PostThu May 13, 2021 7:33 am

Most of the time, my audio post-processing is quite similar. I tend to increase the eq on voice tracks between 1 and 2khz range and adjust dynamics accordingly to normalise the volume. In most instances, I use very similar setups in all my timelines, so I would like to suggest to introduce presets in the popups for track EQ and dynamics. This will save a lot of time when editing.

Save and recall presets via the EQ and Dynamics module windows (like Fairlight AFX) as opposed to via the Presets Library only?

What's the Presets library?

What I am suggesting that the popups should have a uniform behaviour. At the moment, if i add a track effect, for example Dynamics -> Fairly FX -> Multiband Processor, here is what the window looks like. Note that the 3 dots button in the top right-hand corner has a submenu item to load preset.

The EQ and Dynamic sections that have popups when clicking in the track mixer area do not have the same options

Here is the EQ popup window, and the 3 dots don't open a menu

And here is the Dynamics window, which doesn't even have a 3 dots button

Thanks for mentioning this. I didn't know it existed.

I wonder why there are two distinct what's to apply presets - one for effects and a different one for other things.

I still think that adding the presets header to EQ and Dynamics could improve usability and quickly switch within the windows to a different preset.
