=====Frequency Points of Vintage Console/Outboard/Emulated EQs=====

This isn't a "guide to setting PARIS EQs" - nor will selecting these frequency points give you vintage emulation //per se//. However, these can make familiar and comfortable "starting places" for quick EQ adjustment rather than starting off with a "blank slate" of four equal bands defaulting to 1k.

//much cleanup and verification needed//
