First I wanna go over the different ranges of the human voice in the audio frequency spectrum. So here I've got some channel eq's set up to focus on specific areas of the frequency range. We'll start with the low end. The lowest frequencies. This is everything from 20 hertz, the lowest our ears can potentially hear, all the way up to about 80 hertz. Now for a female vocalist, you can pretty much carve out everything below 80 hertz. I would move that down to 60 for male vocals. This is where you're gonna find any unusable rumble that got into the microphone maybe from air conditioning or passing cars outside…
