kronos low eq?

Post by playboy354 »

Is there a way to select the frequency for the low eq on a track? I want to roll off some low end around 50-80 hz but don't see where you can assign the frequency roll off point. I only see it for mids.

No, it’s fixed at 80hz.

Yes it's possible :
you just have to route your track toward an IFX with a specified EQ like "Stereo Parametric 4EQ", and choose the frequency you want to be enhanced.

The low shelf is fixed with a gentle slope as Geo said. You can also go the ifx route as Liviou pointed out.
Another option would be to sacrifice the parametric middle band to boost around the frequencies you don't want to lose.

Here is a picture of the low shelf at it's maximum attenuation of -18dB

And here I set the parametric to 170Hz and boosted 10.5dB to offset the curve, thereby focusing attenuation on that -80Hz range. Looks to be about -9dB at 80Hz to my eyes.

Graphics are your friend but your ears are friendlier.

Final option would be to employ an unused highpass filter if the program supports it.

It is so easy to use the IFX method. Why must he sacrifice anythnig since Kronos provide anything we want with EQ effects ?
