Fabfilter Pro-Q 3: Reduce vocal sustain with Dynamic EQ

All demos from “Fix Boomy Vocals in 3 Innovative Steps (2025 Edition)”

1. 1:380:23Identify boomy frequencies with a high-pass filterThe creator demonstrates how to use a high-pass filter on an EQ to sweep through low frequencies and isolate the specific range (100-300 Hz) causing boominess.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Editor
2. 3:050:33Reduce vocal sustain with Dynamic EQCurrentThe narrator demonstrates setting a dynamic EQ with a slow attack to let the initial vocal transient through while attenuating the boomy sustain in the 100-300 Hz range.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Editor
3. 4:310:21Isolate tonal signals with Eventide SplitEQThe creator demonstrates using Eventide SplitEQ to target and remove specific tonal parts of the signal in the frequency spectrum.Eventide Spliteq· AI Audio Editor
