All demos from “Mastering FabFilter Pro-Q3: Top 5 Techniques for Pro-Level Mixing”

1. 0:161:10Notching out frequencies with FabFilter Pro-Q3Matty demonstrates how to identify and remove 'muddy' frequencies around 500Hz in a vocal track using the notch filter and solo audition mode in Pro-Q3.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Editor
2. 1:382:38Dynamic scrubbing and multi-band dynamic EQThe creator shows how to use the frequency spectrum to identify peaks, drag down multiple bands, and convert them into dynamic EQ nodes to clean up a vocal without losing its life.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Enhancer & Noise Reduction
3. 4:570:53Creating a filtered delay effectCurrentMatty uses steep low and high-cut filters in Pro-Q3 to isolate a specific frequency range for a parallel slap delay effect on a vocal track.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Editor
4. 7:100:48Broad stroke EQ for mix presenceThe demo shows using a wide Q setting to boost the brightness of a sample in real-time, helping it cut through a dense mix.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Editor
5. 8:322:14Mid-side EQ for width and low-end controlMatty demonstrates how to use Pro-Q3's mid-side mode to remove low-end from the stereo sides of a bass and how to add width to a master by boosting the high-shelf on the side channel.Fabfilter Pro-Q 3· AI Audio Editor

1. 3:361:26Adjusting Dynamics and Gain ParametersThe narrator demonstrates adjusting threshold, ratio, and gain structure across Pro-DS, Pro-G, and Pro-C 2 instances directly from the list view.FabFilter
2. 5:231:08EQ Polarity and Output BoostThe demonstration shows toggling auto gain, inverting polarity, and using the temporary 6dB output boost button to check channel clarity.FabFilter
3. 6:311:12Editing EQ Nodes and BandsThe narrator shows how to drag EQ nodes, adjust Q values, change filter types, and solo specific bands within the Pro-Q 4 instance view.FabFilter
4. 14:170:59Frequency Collision DetectionThe demo shows setting a bass guitar as a collision reference to identify and fix frequency masking in rhythm guitars using a high-pass filter.FabFilter
5. 2:160:55Applying Spectral EQ with FabFilter Pro-Q 4The presenter demonstrates how to use the new spectral mode in Pro-Q 4 to lift the vocal presence while simultaneously taming harsh frequencies, similar to the functionality of Soothe.Streaky
6. 3:111:21Dynamic EQ and Mid-Side processing in Pro-Q 4The user performs a side-channel cut to mono the bass and applies a dynamic EQ boost to the kick drum so it only triggers when the kick hits.Streaky
7. 5:560:25Taming low-mids with Spectral EQThe user demonstrates applying spectral EQ around 300Hz to manage low-mid resonance and improve the feel of the track.Streaky
8. 2:581:04Testing phase modes in Pro-Q 4The user switches between Zero Latency, Natural Phase, and Linear Phase modes in both FabFilter plugins while phase-inverted to see if any residue appears during playback.MixbusTv
9. 4:162:03Comparing shelf and notch filters in Pro-Q 3 and 4The demonstration continues by applying low shelves at 120Hz, bell filters, and high-frequency notches to both plugins to verify they still null perfectly under different filter types.MixbusTv
