![]() ![]() Creating separate spaces for the fundamentals of the kick and bass allows them to compliment one another and makes for a MUCH cleaner low end.įor me, it’s easy to know the exact frequency of the fundamental of my kick because I use the sine wave kick drum trick I’ve talked about before. ![]() Next, I like to find where the thickest part of the “thud” of my kick drum is and notch out space in the bass guitar EQ accordingly. The higher you pass here, the cleaner that low end will be and it will leave space for the lower end of the thud of your kick which we’ll talk about more next. In EDM and more bass heavy genres you might want to be a bit more liberal here, particularly if you’re using a sub or other type of synth bass. Roll Off the Bottomįirst I like to drop a high pass filter on my bass guitar EQ with a relatively sharp curve of about 20-40Hz. Replicate these approximate settings (with some exceptions I’ll cover) to get your bass sounding clean and professional every time. I’ll cover each adjustment I make, where I make them, and why I make them now. Here is the rough EQ template I typically use on my bass guitar. I still use the bass guitar EQ settings I’m about to share virtually every time I’m working on the bass. Two, I like to isolate my bass guitar by frequency (by low frequencies sub 200Hz and the rest) so that I can process each slightly differently. One, depending on the kind of sound you’re going for, and the kind of sound you’re starting with before you EQ your bass guitar, your ideal settings may vary slightly. Let me preface all of this by saying two things. Let’s talk about the BEST guitar EQ settings to dial in on your bass to get it right fast, every time. The right bass guitar EQ settings will help your bass cut through the mix/establish its presence while keeping that low end sitting just right. If it’s too weak, too loud, too boomy, too anything, the entire mix will sound off. ![]()
