Matching EQ Settings between Audition and GoXLR

EQ Settings

Low-Pass Filter

• Set the low-pass filter to -5dB at 30Hz for an approximately 40Hz 18dB/octave cut (standard for Mixpre interfaces).

EQ Bands

• The EQ bands use a normal bell curve, not a proportional one.
• Set the EQ bell Q to 1 (instead of the default 2 in Audition).

High Shelf Settings

• Setting the high shelf below 8kHz causes a weird 5dB dip around 4.5-5kHz.
• For a linear brightness boost, set the high shelf above 10kHz.
• To boost the 9-10kHz range by 2dB, set the high shelf to 12kHz +4dB.

Matching Audition Settings in the GoXLR

Low Cut EQ Matching

• To match the Low Cut found in the Audition EQ, set the low-pass on the GoXLR 10Hz lower (set it to -5dB to match the curve of Audition).
• For example, if setting a low cut at 60Hz in Audition, set the low-pass filter to 50Hz on the GoXLR.

EQ Shape Matching

• To match the GoXLR EQ shape in Audition, set the Audition EQ Q to 1 instead of the default Q of 2.
• The GoXLR EQ values round to hundredths past the first 3 bands, it doesn't remember anything less.
  • For example, if you set a band to 1240Hz, it will round down to 1200Hz.
