Before using equalization, try changing the microphone or changing the position of the microphone to see if the desired sound quality can be obtained. This is more original than the sound effect obtained by equalization. Many recording engineers who pursue natural sound avoid using balance.
They complain about the excessive phase shift or bell effect caused by the use of equalization, so they usually use extremely meticulous microphone placement technology and high-quality microphones to obtain natural tone balance without using equalization.
Digital audio characteristics
1, the signal-to-noise ratio is high, the digital recording form is binary code, and only 0 or 1 is needed for playback. Therefore, the noise of the recording medium has little influence on the signal-to-noise ratio of the reproduced signal. The recording form of analog audio is a continuous sound signal, which will be affected by tape noise when recording and playing, and will be superimposed on the sound signal to make the sound quality worse. Although noise reduction measures have been taken in analog audio, they cannot be eliminated fundamentally.
2. Low distortion. In the process of analog audio recording and playback, the nonlinearity of magnetic head will introduce distortion. Therefore, measures such as AC bias magnetic recording must be taken, but the distortion still exists. In digital audio, the magnetic head only works in magnetic saturation or non-magnetic state, that is, 1 or 0, and there is no linear requirement for the magnetic head.
3, good repeatability, digital audio equipment after repeated copying and playing, the sound quality will not deteriorate. In the traditional analog cassette tape recording, every time the tape is re-recorded, the recorded noise will increase, which will reduce the signal-to-noise ratio by about 3dB. The sub-band is not as good as the master band, and the solar band is not as good as the sub-band, and the sound quality will gradually deteriorate.
