Thank you :).

Hi Thomas. Whenever you have a pair of knobs affecting part of the frequency range on a channel (maybe one pair as in my example, or two pairs as in your A&H mixer, or more if there are mixers with more!) you follow exactly the same procedure as I have shown for each pair. So on yours, do what I showed for the top mid-sweep pair then do it again in the same way for the bottom pair. If you have time, go back to the top pair and do it again to check the change you've made on the bottom pair hasn't altered where you need to be with the top pair (probably it won't have).

@@SamanthaSinger Sounds good. Thanks much.

My pleasure :).

So glad I could help :). Thanks. Samantha

@@SamanthaSinger honestly you are amazing.

@@Krisfolktales Thanks :). One day I'll get round to doing 'Gain Staging' (aka 'Why are there so many diffetent volume controls on my mixer?') :).

@@SamanthaSinger that will be awesome.

Can you send a photo or a link to the mixer please and I'll let you know :).

@@SamanthaSinger Thanks for reaching me it’s the Allen & heath GL 2400. Can u google the image. please look at the picture under ST 1 knob that’s where my phone is connected to play music, in there high and mid only has one knob. I’m trying to figure that out.

@@thomas9469 On most analogue mixers ther is a high and low single knob which works on a fixed frequency range. This video was about a situation where the frequency range of the mid area is variable. On the ST1-4 channels of your mixer there are two mid knobs that work like the high and low - they are fixed frequency only (250Hz and 2.5kHz). So you can only use them like the high and low - increase the volume of the frequencies around 250Hz or reduce them, and the same for the 2.5kHz range. So you can't use the technique in this video - just tweak them up and down and listen to see if you think the sound is better or worse. If you have a cable that splits your phone output into two plugs you could put one in each of two mono channels and then you can EQ each of those channels using the mid-sweep technique in the video (if you have two spare channels :) ).

@@SamanthaSinger Sounds good Thank you so much. 🙏

Thank you so much for your lovely comment.

Thanks you so much Jill, you are spot on - I am passionate about the songs I sing and especially about Queen which is my favourite band :).

Thanks Nick.

The method above applies to everything - voice, guitar, etc. So just follow the rules for bass guitar and it will work fine.

You're welcome - glad you liked it.

It IS that funny, for sure :).

Thank you Victoria

@@SamanthaSinger ❤️

Thank you for you kind words and glad it was useful.

Without the abitlity to adjust the frequency that a knob is increasing/reducing there's very little you can. I usually listen to each channel in turn and try to decide if I think it sounds trebly or bassy (or both) and turn those down if I need to. Then play with the mid range up/down and see if I think any setting improves the sound.

@@SamanthaSinger In the end, you can only twist the knobs that are actually present 😃 Thanks for replying!

You're welcome

Thanks.

Thanks, I thought it was obsolete and then he re-appeared on the scene :).

SOrry, can't help with that :).

Yes it should work on any sound. When checking for an instrument use a repeated 'typicla' chord in the middle of the guitar's range for a performance and make that sound best. It's not ideal because the sound will change a lot during a performance and what's best for hat 'typical' sound won't be best for all of the guitar's range. But it's the best you can do :).

@@SamanthaSinger Thank you so much.

Do you mean specifically mid-sweep for different instruments?

My pleasure :).

So pleased it helped Michael.

So glad it was useful :)

You're welcome.

Great news, Frans :).

Glad to have helped :).

If only they had brought some strategy to this battle instead of a comedian.

Thanks. I keep promising to do 'Gain-staging' sometime - must get round to it.

It's nowhere near as bad as America. Have you seen there border. They have 18 times the amount of people crossing. And let's not get started on France and more. Britain is nowhere near as bad and I'm saying that as an Asian.

What unit are you referring to? To my knowledge the Royal Marines on the Falklands had no contact with London whilst they were fighting, and they surrendered on orders of the local Governor after putting up stiff resistance. The only submarine damaged was the ARA Santa Fe (Formerly USS Catfish from WW2) and it was fatally damaged by rocket attack from helicopters of the Royal Navy, before beaching itself in Grytviken in South Georgia where the crew disembarked and joined the Argentinian Marines in defending the island, only to surrender a few days later when the RN put on a display of naval gunnery near the Argentinian troops. The sub was then destroyed by the British Army using it as a target for Milan anti-tank missiles before it was towed out to sea and sunk after the conflict as it's weapons had become unstable.

The German soldier was sent to discuss terms for the BRITISH to Surrender. At that point the brits were outnumbered and surrounded. The British responded, as a JOKE, by refusing a German surrender. Lesson of the day: don't form an opinion before you know the context of what you're seeing.

lol what ?

Rommel had a similar approach when pushing deep into enemy territory heading for their HQ so that when they lost all control they were easy to pick of unit by unit. When a subordinate would reming him they were now 'trapped' because they were behind the eneny who had closed his escape route he would explain that HE was behind THEM. And he was right - it worked every time :).

Definitely a different approach :). I knew of a guy who fought up Italy in WW2 who described the American troops as a great bunch of guys; incredibly brave - but who should never be given live ammunition :).
