EQ
Frequency adjustment tool
EQ most commonly stands for emotional quotient, a measure of emotional intelligence analogous to IQ: High EQ helps in leadership roles.
In audio production, EQ means equalization—the process of adjusting bass, treble, and midrange frequencies: I need to EQ this track to cut the muddiness.
The term also appears in gaming, where EverQuest players abbreviate the game as EQ. (Lowercase eq is typically an abbreviation for equation.)
