    Frequency range on cabs

    Hi again, Another short and sweet thread from me - this time I'm curious about cabinet frequency range. A lot of cabinets list in their specifications that they support a range of frequencies from, for example... 60Hz to 19khz or some such. I play a 5 string. B is around 30hz. If for some...

    Low frequency boost when playing on E/A strings

    Hey bass nerds, Been having a problem lately with some basses of mine. I am noticing this low frequencey bump every time i play notes on the E and A strings. The frequency number is around the 60 or 70hz mark, I got this estimation by recording myself into my DAW and using Pro Q 3 to see. Now...

    Why do amplifier onboard tone controls change output levels?

    My signal chain is 5-string fretless with LPF on each pickup > Alembic SF-2 > TC Electronic BQ500 with Bass, Lo-mid, Hi-mid and Treble controls. I set and forget the LPFs and HPF. If I change any of the LPF/HPF filters it does not affect the output level. If I change for example the amplifier...

    The science of setting intonation and saddle location

    (I think) I understand how adjusting the location of the saddle of each string affects intonation of a string so that the open string and the same string fretted halfway up the fingerboard can be in tune. What I don't really get and haven't seen a good explanation of is...why shouldn't the...

    WMD Parametric EQ : knobs and frequency response

    I know this pedal is not exactly new, but a recent thread asking about parametric EQs popped up recently (Parametric EQ Pedal?) so I thought it could be interesting to someone. So the WMD Parametric EQ is a 3 band EQ, it looks like this : It's about the size of an MXR pedal, quite compact...

    relationship between sealed cabinet volume and speaker performance?

    how does the internal volume amount inside a sealed cabinet interact with the speakers frequency response? i read that small sealed enclosures can limit the speakers low end but it makes the mid range and bass tighter, and that a bigger sealed cabinet will make the low end bigger and boomier but...

    Double Bass A New Clue to finding the Magic Sound

    I've been wondering why I can't get a recorded sound that is (close to) as good as the commercial recordings. It couldn't be MOI, could it???? Nah. My bass? I'd better hope not - my wife will kill me if I start looking at basses for 10K+. Strings? Maybe. but wait a minute. By accident, I...

    Best frequency band to generate "Fretless Mwah"

    I am wondering if the quality of the fretless mwah is, in part, created by putting emphasis on a given band of frequencies? Obviously, the hands of the player, the strings being used, the quality of the fretboard all have a major role. However, I am wondering if there is a way to emphasis the...

    Anyone know the frequency range of the Arion SPE-1 Parametric EQ?

    Can't find any manuals online or any helpful information. Looking for a ONE band parametric that can be able to boost from the sub-bass and up to midrange. Also thinking of the Artec parametric but can't find anyone that's not selling it from Japan.

    real low end frequency of P-BASS

    Hi there I'm playing a MIA standard P-BASS, Daddario Chrome flatwound -- The tone is classic P and I am really satisfied with its low-mid growl and punchy. What I mentioned the low-mid is around 100hz-150hz. (really nice for grunge style) However there is not much real low end freq below 80hz...

    Frequency and types of bass maintenance

    Salutations, all! I am wondering what others do as far as frequency and types of maintenance? I'm a relatively new bass player (started playing on a Worship Team about 8 months ago) and I'm a heavy sweating player. Right now, for preventive maintenance I just wipe down my basses with some...

    I was reading some websites on capacitors, and didnt really understand the volt/ohm input calculations that they used to get frequencies.

My rumble then goes through the PA system. My volume is good and loud and thumping but when go to...

    Aguilar TH500 Mid Frequency Knob

    I am hoping other TH users can shed light on the Mid Frequency ("MF") knob. I feel like adjusting the MF knob only introduces very subtle variations in tone. Honestly, even from completely off to completely dimed, I feel like it is hard to audibly hear much of a difference. I tested this by...
