I'm actually leaning towards the original 820, 1k2, 2k2, 3k3, 4k7 and 6k8 on the HMF.

To me it will deal with sibilant regions on both male/female voice (4k7 and 6k8) as well as get high enough to really open a snare etc and low enough to deal with some boxiness.

The bandwidths of those inductor driven freqs will be quite wide so I doubt 7k2 and 6k8 will be all that different, sure they'll sound different but I think I'd forget about it.

Thanks again guys. Where would you like your HPF/LPF points?

disagree, it can be a really nice option for people like me who like some thump down under, especially when i'm cutting some of the other lows and lets the bass ride it. (talking about a kick obviously)

otherwise i really like where you're going so far.

i wish i could create an EQ, that covered it all though,
like,...8 or 10 bands,
hi and lo pass, allowing you to roll to the EXTREMES, two shelfs, that also roll to extreme freqs.
and 4 bell bands, that roll almost all the frequencies for each one, one band can be designed ot cut, the other to boost.
i.e: 50hz-1K, boost. 50hz-1Kcut, 100hz-3K boost. 100hz-3K cut. 500hz-10K boost. 500hz-10K cut.

i know that sounds ridiculous, but i would use that freaking EQ on everything.
and furthermore:
i hear too many harsh high-ends, let's clear up the high end, and let eh low end be more "harmonic distortion-y"

make me one?
