Here’s a rundown of different frequencies that should be helpful
when using the ParaEq to achieve a specific end result.
Electric Guitar
80Hz – 150Hz: Boosting can add a subtle warmth and bigness to the
sound. Cutting can bring down any rumble you’re experiencing.
150Hz – 400Hz: Cutting in this region can remove a bit of mud, and
boosting will bring out the warmth.
400Hz – 800Hz: Cutting in this region can make the sound more
pristine. Boosting will add an aggressive edge to the sound.
800Hz – 2kHz: Boosting in this region will bring out the twang in
your sound. Cutting will create a rounder, less aggressive tone.
Above 3kHz: Boosting in this region can add brightness and sheen.
Cutting in this region can minimize noise and reduce harshness.
