[groundcontrol]

This is why this technique is called : "frequency concious dynamics control".

Same idea when :

- you boost the harsh SS or SSH frequencies in the compressor detector so it keeps them under control. (deessing)

- same thing but boost the boomy freq of an acoustic guitar. (deboom)

- instead of boosting, cut a lot of low end out in the detector, so the compressor doen't squash an instrument or the mix.

- cut the low's and hi's in the sd gate detector. This way the bd and hh don't cause false triggers.


There are units that let you dynamically apply varying eq boosts or cuts to the signal depending on level fluctuations. They are dynamic equalizers.
