I don't get great results with the de-noising modules. I can smooth over the noise with the wavelet denoising,
but that also looses a lot of details.
But I also just wanted to understand the equalizer. It seems I don't really understand what it does to the wavelets if I can't remove very high frequency noise. Maybe I should read the paper? But first I wanted to know
if that was expected or if there was some easy explanation for it.

Subject: [darktable-user] Can't remove high frequency chroma noise with 
equalizer

Hi.
I'm trying to understand the equalizer better.
I have an image shot at very high ISO:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/gkrcxshydk0slfc/DSC04403.ARW?dl=0
I want to denoise it using the equalizer.
But no matter how high I drag the denoising curve, there is still high 
frequency noise in the image:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/r7rxhgkzapdz72e/chroma_noise.png?dl=0

Is that expected? I would have thought that I can completely remove this noise.
Using the profiled denoising with wavelets, I can easily smooth over it.
I thought
the equalizer could do the same.

I'm using 2.2.4

Thanks!

Andy
