NOTE: Many players rely on the Enhance Control (and perhaps a little
Midrange Massage) to get their sound. This method leaves the Bass and
Treble controls available to dial in to a particularly difficult room. Just
something to keep in mind, ok?
Setting Bass and Treble – OK, now it’s time to set the EQ, beginning with
the Bass and Treble controls. These controls cover a fairly broad frequency
spectrum and a little goes a long way. Adjust these controls up or down as
needed. We suggest playing a few notes in various areas of the neck so you
can hear what your adjustments have done across the fretboard.
Setting the Midrange – Adjusting the Midrange control will bring you
either more up-front in the mix or more in the background. As mentioned
earlier, you can choose between center frequencies for the Midrange control
– either 550Hz or 2.2KHz. The low position (550Hz) is good for general
playing and recording. It’s also good for dialing in a good Fretless Bass
tone. The high position (2.2KHz) is good for getting a more aggressive Rock
tone.
We suggest you start in the low position. While playing, boost and cut the
Midrange so you can hear how it affects your tone. Remember to play in all
ranges, not just on the first few frets. Once you have an idea of the tonal
possibilities, switch to the High position and do the same thing. This will
give you a better idea of what this control can do for your sound and you can
then dial in what you want more effectively.
NOTE: Don’t forget that you can disengage the entire tone control system
by pushing the EQ Bypass switch. This is Really Neat Thing that many
users like to use when recording.
ANOTHER NOTE: If you plan on using the Warmth circuit to get some
extra grit in your sound, you may want to wait a minute before adjusting the
Midrange. So let’s talk about the Warm Switch now.
