Voxengo's free SPAN analyser has a handy function for picking out rogue frequencies. If your analyser doesn't have this feature, you can always use your OS's screen capture function as a quick 'n' dirty way to grab curves as image files for later recall! Fix your frequencies Some frequency analysers let you take a 'snapshot' of a curve for later comparison, and you can even build up a library of your favourite curves - reference tracks, perfectly-weighted basses, ideal kicks, and more. ![]() If you don't have access to such a plugin, use a second monitor screen and arrange your individual analysis plugins permanently on this display. It's highly useful to visualise frequency, levels/dynamics and stereo width information all on a single display at the same time - a task made easier by all-in-one analysis solutions like iZotope's Insight, shown above. Your meter plugin may already have ready- to-go presets built in for this, so take time to check out its preset menu. To help save time, make presets of your favourite metering settings so that you can instantly recall them for different situations (such as fast analysis for drums slow, smoothed analysis for mastering etc). If your frequency analyser doesn't have this function, simply open up two separate analyser instances onto two separate tracks and compare their curves side-by-side. It's possible to use a dedicated plugin to plot individual track elements' curves on a single analyser display. You can then take this information and aim for similar characteristics in your own mixes. Import a WAV (not an MP3) and use frequency analysis, stereo metering, RMS metering and basic waveform inspection to get a feel for how your favourite mixes work. Visual analysis tools are brilliant for deconstructing commercial tracks for referencing purposes.
