Use the Output EQ graphic display in Final Cut Pro for Mac
The graphic display shows the current curve of each EQ band. The color of each band matches the corresponding button above the display. Each colored band (and corresponding Frequency, Gain, Order, and Q field) is highlighted as you move the pointer across it.
In the Final Cut Pro timeline, select a clip with the Space Designer effect applied, then open the effect’s settings in the Audio inspector.
To add the effect and show its controls, see Add Logic effects to clips in Final Cut Pro for Mac.
Click the EQ On/Off button to enable the EQ, then click one or more EQ band buttons above the graphic display.
Do any of the following:
Click a curve line segment, the (center frequency) node, or anywhere in the colored space between the zero line and EQ curve to adjust the band.
Click the node to select a band for editing. Once a band is selected, no other band node that falls within the active (colored) area of the selected band can be selected.
Click the graphic display background (outside a colored band) to deselect the selected band.
Press and hold the Command key while performing any of the following operations to limit dragging to vertical or horizontal movement.
Drag anywhere in the colored band to adjust gain and the center frequency.
Use a two-finger vertical swipe with a trackpad, or a single-finger vertical swipe with a Magic Mouse, to adjust the Q value of the selected band.
Drag the node to adjust the center frequency only.
Horizontally dragging the node in band 1 and band 6 adjusts both the frequency and Q.
Press and hold Option-Command to adjust the Q and center frequency simultaneously.
