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?
