Fairlight basically has two types of EQ: clip based and in-line. The in-line works just as any other console or controller where the EQ and dynamics are in the channel path. The clip-based EQ is different. You can EQ individual clips seperately or select a group of clips and adjust the EQ on them without affecting other clips on the same tracks. This clip EQ can be copied to other clips, bypassed, adjusted, whatever, without affecting mix automation or any other functions. It's a great tool to have, I use it all the time on my Constellation.
