HR AUDIO — DYNAMIC EQ

Stop guessing which frequency is wrong.

Ask it why. It actually answers.

Press one button and HR Smart EQ explains your mix the way an engineer looking over your shoulder would — not a frequency readout, an actual diagnosis.

Low-Mid buildup — Energy around 300Hz is sitting well above the mid range, which reads as mud and reduces clarity.
Limited presence — The presence range (2–5kHz) is being masked or underrepresented, so the vocal feels like it's sitting behind the mix.
Masking detected — Vocal is competing with the synth's energy around 2.8kHz. Duck the synth dynamically there while the vocal is active.
Harshness — Presence energy is spiking sharply relative to its neighbors, which often reads as harsh or fatiguing on vocals and cymbals.

Every band means something specific.

Not six identical parametric bells. Each one is tuned to a region mixers actually talk about, color-coded so you can spot it on the curve at a glance.

BAND 1 — 80Hz SHELF
Sub
Low-end weight and rumble control.
BAND 2 — 300Hz BELL
Low-Mid / Mud
Where boxiness and buildup actually live.
BAND 3 — 800Hz BELL
Mid / Boxy
The honk that makes things sound closed-in.
BAND 4 — 2.5kHz BELL
Presence
Cut-through, clarity, vocal intelligibility.
BAND 5 — 5kHz BELL
Harsh
Sibilance and fatigue territory, tamed dynamically.
BAND 6 — 12kHz SHELF
Air
Openness and shimmer without brittleness.

Make room, automatically.

Tell each track what it is. HR Smart EQ instances quietly compare notes across your session and duck whatever's fighting a higher-priority element in the same frequency range — no sidechain routing, no manual setup.

Lead Support Background

Set your vocal to Lead. Leave everything else on the default. Lower-priority elements get out of its way wherever they actually clash — automatically, every mix.

35 real starting points. Not 100 gimmicks.

Every preset is one specific, motivated tonal decision — which band, how much, and why — organized by what you're actually mixing. Shape from here by ear; no preset can replace your source or your ears, and none of ours pretend to.
