Option to incorporate HPF into EQ curve

I’d greatly appreciate the option to view the slope of the HPF as part of the EQ curve.

This technically possible already by using the LF as an HPF…but that’s a waste of the LF band in my humble opinion.

I don’t know, what model you’re talking about. The Qu5/6/7 have the HP on the EQ page.

On the level of the electronic circuit, the HP has to come very close to the input to avoid distortion because of low frequency noise. So it is tecnically not part of the EQ. But i agree totally, it belongs on the EQ page.

Yeah, having it on the EQ page is not the problem. It’s the fact that the HPF curve is overlayed on the EQ curve so it doesn’t show any changes to the actual EQ curve.

IE: an HPF set to 200Hz @ 12db slope, but if you have your LF band doing something at 150Hz, it shows a bump from what would otherwise be a flat line. If you’re trying to make a subtle manipulation in the HPF slope by boosting a certain frequency within that curve, it would be nice to see the actual HPF curve change since it is effectively part of the EQ.

Picture from another mixer of mine showing what I mean. Blue line is the HPF curve, white line is the HPF slope effectively modified by my LF setting.

Definitely +1 - but not just for QU, also for SQ (Link) and all the others.
David Schumann demonstrates in his “Mixing Station”, how significantly the resulting frequency response curve changes when you enable the HPF - even in the mini-view.

Just wanted to upload the comparison of Qu5 and MixingStation - too slow :wink:

I agree, in the lower end its important to see the effect of the HP on the total frequency response.

Yeah, seems like something that should be available across the lineup.
