Members Urinate Forever Posted May 3, 2008 Members Share Posted May 3, 2008 Kind of a strange question I guess... I have an Ibanez Parametric EQ from way back when (it has a square switch like those TS-808 RIs) and I've been playing with the mid frequencies. I can't really decide what frequency is best for my Big Muff. The lower ones seem to beef it up a bit more and the higher ones make it sound more shrill depending on where the Muff's tone is at. What frequency would YOU guys choose for this? Would it be too hard without a regular 7 band EQ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Destructobot Posted May 3, 2008 Members Share Posted May 3, 2008 Honestly, if you can't decide based on just sweeping the knob while you listen to it, you really think someone here is going to say "oh, I think 1.6k is just perfect" and you'll be satisfied? Get off the computer and screw around with the damn thing some more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members SonicVI Posted May 3, 2008 Members Share Posted May 3, 2008 The mid dip in the Big Muff is at around 1KHz+/-. Try boosting around there for a more flat mids sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members petejt Posted May 4, 2008 Members Share Posted May 4, 2008 Hopefully this info will help. Low Frequencies 30Hz-50Hz = Deep Sub-Bass/Wobbliness 50Hz-100Hz = Bass/Boomy 100Hz-200Hz = Power/Heavy Low-Mid Frequencies 200Hz-300Hz = Deep Mid/Muddy 300Hz-500Hz = Warmth/Boxy 500Hz-600Hz = Body/Middy High-Mid Frequencies 1kHz-2kHz = Up-front/Nasal 2kHz-3kHz = Clarity/Thin 3kHz-6kHz = Presence (Aggressive)/Hostile High Frequencies 6kHz-8kHz = Brightness/Harsh 8kHz-12kHz = Top/Edgy 12kHz-16kHz = Air/Painful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody has different ideas on what they want to sound like. Don't you have your own idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's nothing with asking what others do. Otherwise why have Internet Forums? :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
