RackPack: Vox Ranger

The Eight EQ Bands

Each filter is designed as bell filter with individually optimized band-
widths and boost/cut values. Each filter is regulated by a fader con-
trol. The frequency range around the center frequency can be boosted
(fader to the right into direction “+”) or can be cut (fader to the left into
direction “-”) directly.

Here is a short list with examples for setting each band. This list is of
course not complete or demands general validity—we just want to give
some suggestions and orientation to start from.

Band 1: 4kHz Center Frequency
Boost: improves intelligibility for vocals (chant).

Cut: reduces risk of feedback (live).

Band 2: 2.8 Hz Center Frequency

Boost:

gets

vocals

up

front,

intensifies

presence,

improved intelligibility for voices (speech).

Cut: masks wrong intonation, more air in backings.

Band 3: 1,6 kHz/Band 4: 800 Hz/Band 5: 560 Hz/Band 6: 420 Hz
The main vocal area from about 500 to 2000 Hertz is covered from
these four bands. Particular fundamentals can be processed here.
Band 3 reaches up into the presence area, Band 6 processes the
foundation.

Band 7: 330 Hz Center Frequency

Boost: more warmth, fuller sound (pay attention to larger dis-
tances to the microphone).

Cut can bring more clarity.

Band 8: 220 Hz Center Frequency

Boost: “Belly“ of singing voices.

Cut can reduce pulpy sounds/improves clarity.
