Let's find and tackle resonances! [video]

I hate resonances.
But I love taking them out. It's part of my daily living, literally.
In this video, I show my favorite four tools and how I fight resonances.
All for the smooth-as-possible sound!

(I do admit some of the cuts I do on the video are too deep, but they're just so you can hear what is being taken out)
I would also offer Smooth Operator as a potential alternative to Soothe

Oh snappity snap! Great that you found that out!
I think that for purely resonance work, I use Soothe a bit more, as it's grrrreat for overall resonances, even on the master (I often use two instances of Soothe 2 on the master for overall smoothing), but when it comes to surgical resonance sniping, ProQ3 with its freeze feature is just too useful.
Lemme know how to Slate one works for ya!

Oh shiet, Slate's Infinity EQ actually has the freeze view on by default lol. Will defo try using it next time I'm doing this kind of work

This, to me, is one of the most enlightening Patreon post of yours, thanks for the detailed video. In most cases I'm able to get away with the basic Live EQ, but hunting for resonances with that is a nightmare. The Pro Q freeze feature seems super useful. Will probably buy it, unless SlateDigital suite offers something like that, gotta dig.
Soothe does look like a nice magic one button solution, but I'm not sure if it's worth the money in terms of how much time it saves overall
