Equalizers Explained: What’s the Difference Between Active & Passive EQs?
Here's a video where we chat about some of the things I've been taught about the differences between active and passive EQs. I know a lot of this stuff is fairly simplified (check out the article on active vs passive electronic components that I linked to in the description to see what I mean). Or you know, dig into the arguments for active vs passive and which one *tends to have* more noise (some people say passive might actually have more noise because of the way it boosts everything after cutting, and some people argue that active EQs tend to have more noise because of the type of components they use). Anyway, I'm rambling! These are the general ideas that I've been taught; I'd love to hear what you think, and I hope you like the video!
