pro q display change/option request
hello,
I typically sweep the EQ for every track when mixing and definitely before final mix down to find the sweet spots of each track, and then apply subtractive EQ appropriately. i do this by raising the eq's gain to about 10-13 db and narrowing the q to about 30 or more and then sweeping across the diff frequencies listening for what sounds good to me for a slight bump and what sounds harsh, bringing it down. However, I've noticed a problem several times when I get to the high end around 20000 hz or higher is that my finger hits the 30 db gain button under the help button in the menu. or for that matter, i end up hitting the menu anywhere in the frequency range where the gain is close to 13 db. The 30 db button Is the one where you can choose either 3 db, 6 db, 12 db or 30 db. Is there a way I can make that disappear or make menu inactive or disappear so I don't keep hitting it when I do this process? Otherwise forget sweeping the EQ in the high end because I always hit that button or menu. If I reduce the gain, it makes it harder to use my ears.
Thanks in advance

I suggest posting this suggestion on the FabFilter forum, as they make Pro-Q, and would be able to incorporate changes like this:

Hi Rim,
FabFilter doesn't let none pc/Mac customers to register or post on their forum.
I once emailed them that I bought several plugins via Auria and they answered me that they can't provide me a user for their forum and that I should use email to ask questions.
Thanks,
Shay

Re: pro q display change/option request
I am a forum member of Fabfilter and I registered with no problem, simply sign up with an email and password. If you check the forum you will see a post by myself and another Auria user thanking Fabfilter for their great apps they ported to Auria. I have also emailed them and received great responses. So just go to their site and click my account, then click Forum then in the search type in Auria and all the posts regarding Auria pop up. Then you can reply to a post or you can create a new post with nothing more than your email address. . cheers.hope this helps.

Re: pro q display change/option request
Yes as it says you can post on their forum without and account. If you want an account which shows the purchase cart then you need an account with a purchased plugin but if you just want to post a problem or question on the forum than you don't need an account. You only need an account if you want to purchase plugins from their site. cheers.

Re: pro q display change/option request
Hello all I also like to sweep with the proQ. Unfortunately I can no longer
hear anything a good ways from 20000hz but if I could I'd use the frequency
control knob for that point. Also I've noticed if you hold on the control
point it will pass behind the gain menu without bringing it up. I also use a
stylus but that's a whole other story. Best of luck with your sound engineering!
I could use your ears!

Re: pro q display change/option request
Well, as long as you don't release your finger, you can sweep "behind" the gain range button. Otherwise we'd suggest to use the Frequency knob to get the curve out from behind the button.
