Quad Equalizer Pop Preset

Last updated: August 2026

Pop tends to reward a specific EQ shape — here's a starting point built for it.

Suggested Starting Values

Try +3dB at 60Hz, -1dB at 500Hz, +2dB at 2.5kHz, and +3dB at 8kHz. A mild V-shape keeps vocals present while adding the polish and brightness typical of modern pop production.

Why This Shape Suits Pop

Modern pop production is already engineered to sound bright and punchy, so this preset nudges that same direction slightly further rather than fighting the genre's inherent style.
