Unlike static EQ cuts, which remove frequency content regardless of level, QREC listens dynamically. It waits for a specific frequency to become problematic (too loud relative to its neighbors) and then applies an immediate, narrow-band gain reduction. Think of it as an automatic "problem frequency tamer" for post-production, live sound, and mastering. Traditional EQ removes frequencies constantly. If you cut 5 dB at 3.15 kHz, you lose 5 dB even when the vocal sounds good. QREC removes gain
