In this video a Behringer XR18 is being used as the mixer. The GUI and technique is also applicable to the Behringer X32, Midas M32, Midas MR18, and X-Air series. X-Air Edit PC software is shown. Recorded to Reaper DAW.
The overall EQ concept is cross platform information that can be applied to other mixers, and also DAW plugins. The GUI, or real life surface and controls might look different on your audio mixer or equalizer, but they do the same basic things.

The bass drum sound (kick drum sound) is typically the foundation of your mix. Kick drum, bass guitar, and maybe keys or key bass typically fill in that general space in the music. Live sound reinforcement and studio techniques can bring your audio drum mix to life. EQ (equalization) is where much of that is accomplished beyond the channel faders.
Understanding the EQ section of your console or software, and learning how to apply that to individual drums is a fundamental part of audio engineering. Where to cut and where to boost frequencies on the equalizer for any instrument or voice, including the drumkit, will help you develop and train your ear to help with your drum mixes, and band mixes in general.
