Tone Control Filter

Name:  Picture 4.png
Views: 445
Size:  26.2 KBI have been playing with this tone control circuit to replace my baxandall tone control. This circuit is designed to cut the bass, mid and treble -26db and to boost them 6db. It works fine however, I want to raise the boost a bit higher than 6db (maybe 12db) so would like to know which resistors I would have to replace. Thanks for you time, any help is much appreciated

Can't see the whole circuit in the pic. Is there a summing amp to the right of the filter section that combines the input with the filtered signal?

Hi the left opamp IC2A is for the gain control, while IC2b is for the bass and treble and IC3A is for the midrange which just goes to the output

Dropping r22 to a lower value should increase HF boost.

Making r17 smaller will increase the amount of bass cut.

Hi I was going to look at that, but this circuit is not a typical baxandall circuit so I dont think it applies thanks

Ok I have been studying the circuit and I think you are right about dropping r22 to increase the Hf however, I do believe if I drop r17 and r25 I should get increased gain in the bass and mid range. I will try this tomorrow and let you know how it turns out thanks
