Master EQ setting

Post by obarguti »

Hey guys,

I am enjoying my new Korg lately and I have been creating a number of performances that I will need as I play. I am selecting different types of strings on Upp1,2 and 3. I am noticing that all the performances sound muffled and hollow a little bit. I checked the master EQ setting and it was zero for low, middle and high. In the middle, I had a knob set to 3.25khz I think. When I increased the middle db, the sound suddenly came to live and sounded a lot better. However, I could not feel the bass. I increased the low and high and the sound got richer. I cannot decide however on an optimal setting. Increasing all 3 made the performance too loud relative to the style so I had to lower all my performances volume. I am new to this. What do you recommend for these settings? Any help is appreciated.

Increasing all Low,mid and high at the same ratio is no different than turning up the volume knob. How are you listening to the audio comign out of the keyboard?

I use the built in speakers. I play for fun at home.
