## What is EQ Perfect?

EQ Perfect is a revolutionary EQ ear trainer app. Unlike other EQ training apps where you can only choose from few pre-defined options, EQ Perfect's way of training can be immediately applied to your production workflow.

We have developed our new EQ ear trainer app which contains a real parametric EQ, and a comprehensive list of lessons to build your EQ skills step by step.

Because you are learning with a real parametric EQ, the workflow is just like how you would later use an EQ in your favorite DAW: FL studio, Ableton, Studio One, Logic Pro or a VST plugin such as FabFilter Pro Q 3.

You will learn every aspect of a parametric EQ, including how does different frequencies sound, how much gain to apply, how steep is your EQ curve and what shape should you use.

Along your journey of EQ training, we present you an overview of your performance in different aspects of the EQ skills, where you can easily spot your weaknesses and choose lessons accordingly to turn them into your strengths.

The app comes with a set of FREE songs to train your EQ skills on, ranging from vocals to EDM. It is perfect for amateur music producers and mixing engineers to pick up EQ skills.

### 2/5 — Could be really good - currently fails at first hurdle but would love to see it revamped.

*2025-10-02, version 1.3.2*

App could be really good, but it seems to massively over-estimate how good all beginners will be and it fails to provide a way to dial back the difficultly level to a point where those people can gradually improve. Obviously I’m not great with EQ … and that’s the point of the app isn’t it? To help people like me improve. I feel it’s failing at that. I just got irked by failing and having no way to incrementally improve.

EDIT: To answer the developer, no, I’m playing it through the Mac, using Yamaha HS7’s in an acoustically treated room - I don’t have hearing issues and I’ve been a musician for years. I’ve found alternative apps to be fine and the issue for me in this case is definitely the functionality of the app, with the starting bands being too narrow.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-08-04*

Absolutely perfect zero complaints coming from a guy who never writes reviews.

### 4/5 — Fantastic!

*2025-07-27, version 1.3.2*

Really great app and user interface - it took me a second to realise how it worked but once I got it it’s become a valuable tool. It would be nice to have some more tracks in there or even the ability to play your own music through it (hence the 4 stars) but otherwise I’m really impressed!

### 5/5 — Muito bom!

*2024-11-26, version 1.3.2*

Ajuda a entender como cada frequência trabalha

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-10-16, version 1.3.2*

Nice app, but there’s a bug.. every time I click to unlock unit 2 and 3, nothing happens.. so I can use it only in demo mode 🥴

### 5/5 — Fan of the visual aspect

*2024-08-01*

I like the way it looks ant that there is a lot of settings you can adjust to get a clearer idea of what you’re looking for

### 1/5 — Distortion

*2024-04-29*

Having the EQ cause distortion in the very first lesson is really bad. Applying 12db of gain to a specific frequency is going to do that if you don’t compensate by lowering the overall gain by 12db. Really really poor oversight on the developers part. It makes it a lot harder to guess what changed if the EQ is so severely boosted it distorts.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. Have you tried adjusting the overall volume? For optimal ear training experience, we also recommend using high quality headphones rather than phone speakers as in-built phone speakers response to EQ boost to certain frequencies poorly and may produce distortions. Could you please try these adjustments and see if it resolves the distortion you’re experiencing?

If the problem still persists, please feel free to let us know which iOS device, iOS version and headphones are you using so we can try to replicate the problem. We value your input and are here to help with any further questions or concerns.

### 5/5 — Enjoying and learning

*2024-02-28*

Love the premise behind this app.  The only thing that I would love to see is for this app to incorporate the ability to listen to any music (whatever streaming platform the user listens to) and do the testing with that.  I feel that would be a great addition. To the app. Thank you.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review and for sharing such a fantastic idea!

Currently, iOS does not support apps making system-wide EQ adjustments. However, we definitely see the value in your suggestion and will keep it on our radar. Should iOS introduce this capability in the future, we’ll be eager to explore implementing this feature to enhance the training experience further.

Thanks again for your support and for contributing your ideas to improve our app! Have fun EQ training :)

### 5/5 — Exceptional for the price

*2023-12-05*

This is a great app for only $6 and unlimited hearts it's a no brainer if you're trying to save a buck or two!

### 4/5 — Great lessons

*2023-06-26*

Other options I found just from searching on google had ridiculous yearly subscriptions. This was reasonable for a lot more lessons than my ear can even pick up on now. The white noise is great but the other mixes for me were very hard to listen to
