This is EXACTLY what I was thinking would make IntuitQ perfect--Being able to stretch a highlight over the area it should work on.HarBal wrote:I did think about that and I think it should be available to the user. However, I didn't pursue it as I wanted to get something out pretty quick and a user adjustable option would require a GUI interface that would have slowed he release. Actually, I think I'd invisage the Gui for a "semi-manual" intuitQ along the lines of a click and drag frequency selection followed by the intuitQ smoothing when you release the mouse button.
Thanks for the ideal!
Paavo.
There are 2 common scenarios that trick the current IntuitQ:
1) A lot of rock mixes have a bump at about 100hz. IntuitQ tends to raise, say, 200hz to smooth out the hump. But that makes it sound woolly.
2) If a mix lacks treble, IntuitQ sometimes makes the problem worse by dragging down what little treble there is to smooth out an otherwise sharp roll-off.
Being able to command IntuitQ to ignore these tricky areas would be useful.
Of course, it isn't difficult to work around as it is. Just turn on the gray analysis of your original signal and put back any areas IntuitQ over-corrected.
So time would be better spend on making the Mac version so that I could use this through my proper monitors instead of through cheap 1" Dell speakers.
BTW: This is one of the best audio software programs in my arsenal. What you SHOULD invest time in--for your own deserved benefit--is beautiful graphics and "skins". Then you could easily charge the naive public much more money. Why else do you think T-Racks (with nowhere near as many well-thought features) costs 4x as much as Har-Bal?
