No matter what instrument you are recording, how it was recorded, or what hardware it was recorded with, you will always capture unwanted frequencies. That's what this entire series on frequency has lead to, identifying and properly removing unpleasant sounds. While there's more to it than this, one type of very unpleasant sound is a resonant frequency, which is simply defined as a build up on energy in a located area on the frequency spectrum. There can be several of these resonant frequencies in a recording, and once we know they're there and have the tools and abilities to properly identify them, we can transparently remove them, leaving behind a more pleasing arrangement of sounds. In this episode we define in greater detail resonant frequencies, why they're bad, how to identify them, and how to remove them. Full show notes with graphics and illustrations available at my website. JOIN THE FUN ON PATREON!
