Question on Pro-Q 3
This may be a noob question for using Pro-Q 3, and don’t mind the non-technical terms here.
How do I keep the purple spectrum analyzer up, while grabbing onto EQ nodes to make cuts where the frequency is peaking? (Not sure what the official name of that feature is).
It’s extremely useful for cutting harsh frequencies, but whenever I go to grab onto an EQ node, the purple spectrum analyzer goes away and I have to go back to the bottom of the interface to get it to show back up again. I’d like to be able to keep that up while cutting frequencies so I don’t have to go back to the bottom every time. Is there a way to do this at all?
Thank you in advance.

From the manual: www.fabfilter.com/help/pro-q/using/spectrumgrab
You can also activate Permanent Spectrum Grab mode by clicking and holding in the spectrum area until the highlight becomes blue. This freezes the spectrum permanently so you can grab and drag multiple spectrum peaks. To exit this mode, simply click on the display background instead of on the white spectrum curve.
Does this help you? :)
You're a life saver! That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks so much!
