Those who have been paying proper attention will have noticed that on the
same instrument there are suggestions for both cut and boost at the same
frequencies! Well there's no accounting for taste.
REMOVING SUB-SONICS
The 75Hz high pass filter is useful for removing subsonics such as wind
and stage noise and will often help produce a much tighter bass and vocal
sound.
MAKING A COMPRESSOR FREQUENCY CONSCIOUS
Inserting the EQX20 into the side chain of a compressor such as the GCX2
will make the compressor more sensitive to certain frequencies. Examples
of this technique are De-Essing and De-Popping.
SPECIAL EFFECTS
A passable telephone voice can be created by cutting frequencies below
300Hz and above 3kHz. Use the LF and HF sections, lowest Q (CW)
setting and adjust their respective FREQUENCY controls accordingly.
