Where is the best position for the Magotan three-band equalizer?
1 Answers
The equalizer effect has no best, only what you prefer. A three-band equalizer divides the sound into three segments for adjustment. Roughly: 20Hz–150Hz is one segment, 150Hz–2kHz is another, and 2kHz–100kHz is the third. These correspond to bass, midrange, and treble. This is generally the cheapest and most basic type of equalizer, with a limited adjustment range and a somewhat rigid sound effect, featuring only three sliders. Additional notes: 1. Bass: 40Hz–150Hz forms the fundamental part of the sound, accounting for 70% of the total audio energy and playing a key role in defining the musical style. When properly adjusted, the bass is relaxed, and the sound is full and soft. If insufficient, the sound becomes weak. Excessive boosting around 150Hz can make the sound stuffy, reduce brightness, and increase nasality. 2. Mid-Bass: 150Hz–500Hz is the structural part of the sound, where human vocals are located. If insufficient, vocals may be drowned out by the music, making the sound soft and weak. Proper boosting enhances power and loudness, but excessive boosting can make the bass stiff. Over-boosting at 300Hz by 3–6dB, especially with added reverb, can severely impact sound clarity. 3. Midrange: 500Hz–2kHz includes the lower harmonics and overtones of most instruments and characterizes instruments like the snare drum and percussion. Proper adjustment results in a clear and bright sound, while insufficient adjustment makes it muffled. Excessive boosting can produce a telephone-like sound.
