Question

Audio EQ anybody?

Am I being fussy - as a trained sound man? - but I am sure users of Zoom could benefit from the option of an easy-access Tone Control.  Or EQ if you prefer. 

Why?  Some people in a group chat will use poor mics or even poorer technique - so they sound muffled or boomy.   Quick EQ is totally everyday in a broadcast studio, taking varied calls from correspondents and listeners.

One flick of bass or treble, cut or boost, makes all the difference.   Indeed it is an Access issue that Zoom should by now be aware of. 

And, invented by Peter Baxandall in 1954 for radios and record-players, it is user friendly.  C'mon Zoom techs.  It's so simple!

hi @Howdie 

There are many third party tools, software and hardwarew for audio controls and you can use those to process the audio before putting it into Zoom.  I think they offer more options that we could put into Zoom

All the best

John

Thankyou John.  Shall explore, keeping in mind it's the incoming audio that's in need, rather than the outgoing.
