Does any of you have some tips on how to approach Kit Cut?

I'm in the middle of changing the way i play the game. Before i used to just turn the eq off and basically treat it like its Peak Master which makes the game pretty easy. However in hindsight I don't really think thats a very helpful way of approaching the game.

Now I force myself not to swith the EQ on/off and even level 3 feels challenging. Peak master really clicked for me when I learned the distinct vowels of all of the frequency bands. Is there a similar trick i can learn with Kit Cut? Or is it more like an intuition that develops over time?

Sorry if my answer is not good enough, my english is really bad and even my Spanish (Im mexican btw JAJAJAAJ) because is hard to explain what im saying sometimes, but Kid Cut i try to approach it turning the volume off before the sound start and the turn the eq off, then I turn the volume on and finally turn the eq on, so I dont have this relation of eq on to off that would be similar to Peak master
Hope you can understand this and if you do, hope this helps

I used to do the same as you ... switching on/off several times. Now I listen for a bit with EQ on, then switch it off, move to the eq zone I think is affected then switch it back on one more time to confirm.

It never occurred to me that I wasn't getting the most from the game until someone else mentioned that the idea was to be able to detect what is missing not just which frequency pops up when the filter is turned off. So now I listen, make an assessment of what is missing, then turn the filter off for confirmation before I make my guess. I find that the game is pretty challenging for that initial assessment. I don't know of any tricks that will make it any easier, it's just a matter of time/training.
