Cut Low Mid to reduce body handling noise or over
loudness on lower strings, muddiness and boomy sound
Increase Low Mid CW to thicken tone. This is more
popular on Nylon Strung Instruments or when playing
finger-style or slide
The Notch Filter and Violin "Range" Switch settings can
all impinge on this area
iii)
HI MID
CONTROL: +/- 12dB centred broadly,
approximately @ 880Hz
Allows control of Upper Mid range of frequency spectrum.
Will overlap a little tonally mainly with Low Mid and
Presence.
Cut Upper Mid ACW to thin out or hollow out tone,
reduce bias of middle guitar strings, remove honkiness,
clunk, or peakiness.
Increase Upper Mid CW to thicken tone, add punch and
increase bias towards middle strings
iv)
PRESENCE
CONTROL: +/- 7dB centred in narrow
band, approximately @ 2.8kHz
Allows control of Presence which noticeably overlaps into
lower treble and upper mid range areas but offers a
useful, narrow but distinctive area of control.
Cut Presence ACW to reduce clunk, peakiness or
harshness,
to hollow out sound subtly and reduce low end
brightness, reduce bias of top 2-3 guitar strings, thin the
treble, tame low treble feedback and mellow the sound. A
Presence cut is also thought to reduce the Piezo
