What you’ll learn
audio engineering: EQ and Compression for beginners – Free Udemy Courses
- understand how to use an eq
- understand how to use a compressor
- understand what an eq and compressor does
- learn what bands are on an EQ
- learn the controls on an EQ
- learn the controls on a compressor
- Learn what the range of an EQ is
- Learn when to use EQ

Requirements
-
nothing is needed for this course, but a daw with a compressor and EQ plugin is highly recommended.
-
Having a DAW with a compressor and EQ plugin will allow you to practice everything I’m teaching in this course
-
If you want to use the DAW I’m using it is called Presonus Studio one. The free version does not come with a compressor and eq but a free demo version of the version that does come with a compressor (artist and up) is available to be downloaded.
Description
Eq and compressors play a very important role in controlling and shaping music, movies, and TV shows. So it shouldn’t be a surprise it’s the most used tool in audio engineering. Eq is widely used even outside of the audio world. Anything you do to adjust the bass or treble of a sound is using eq. Car stereos, iPods, smartphones music players, and computers, all have eq controls. Even when you adjust the sound presets on your TV you are using eq. With the EQ spread use of EQ in our everyday life, you can see why it’s so important to get EQ right when we are engineering. After completing this course you will see just how powerful EQ can be.
Compressors aren’t widely used as EQ outside of audio engineering but are still very important to learn. Using compression is the most understood tool used in audio. And because there are so many different compressors it’s no wonder they can be confusing.
This course will teach you the basics of EQ and compression. Two tools are vital to becoming a good audio engineer. After this course stay tuned as I will have more courses coming soon. Since Compression is always a hot topic in audio I have a few more courses on compression planned out. This course is for beginners, but even if you are past the beginning stages of engineering I encourage you to still subscribe to this course. You may learn something you didn’t already know. This course will take one hour to complete and will be followed by a quiz. If you want to further your knowledge about compression checks out the Basics of Compression course. Any questions my contact info will be provided in the course.
Who this course is for:
- anyone wanting to learn the fundamental of EQ
- anyone wanting to learn the fundamental of compression
- anyone who has begun audio engineering and needs an introduction to eq and compression
- If you’re an audio engineer and you have been introduced to compression but want to learn more then check out my basics compression course
- no matter what kind of audio engineer you want to be (recording, mixing, mastering, post-production, live sound) this entry course to compression and eq will benefit you if you struggle to understand them
