If you use Pro Tools, then you're probably very familiar with the stock EQIII 7-band eq that comes standard with Pro Tools. It's a useful eq, though not with any sort of "character", but sometimes that's a good thing. Very recently I came across a key command trick to get access to a hidden feature of the EQIII. If you hold down Shift and Control while you adjust a frequency band, the band goes into solo mode and you can hear whatever is only inside that narrow band. It's a trick that is common to Brainworx eq's, but I had no idea that you could do this with the stock Avid eq. Here's a little video showing it in action.
