More likely you completely lose control, because the "Tilt EQ"
provides special features, e.g.
http://www.audiopluginsforfree.com/tal-use/ provides an extra-knob for
the "bass lift filter". "12 dB bass lift filter at 300 Hz" at what
quality? +12dB for exactly 300Hz, +-0dB for everything lower and higher?

Is the "Q" in EQ for "quiz"?
