Figure 14.34 The frequency range of human voice and relevant frequency ranges. The gradient bar denotes the range of possible fundamentals and harmonics. The possible fundamental range was confined in bounded rectangle. The associations above the bar are likely to be emphasized by a boost in their frequency ranges, the associations below by a cut.

less impressive range than that. Above and below the bar are frequency ranges relevant to vocals. It is worth noting that equalizing a specic range can yield either positive or negative results. For example, by boosting the high-mids we might add presence, but at the same time add unwanted sibilance. By attenuating the low-mids we might add clarity but lose warmth and make the sound thin.

Track 14.107: Vocal No EQ The unequalized track. Track 14.108: Vocal HPF 280 Hz A 12 dB/oct HPF at 280 Hz removes some mud but also some body. The vocal here is clearer compared to the previous track. Track 14.109: Vocal HSF 9 dB Up This is an equalized version of the previous track. A 9 dB boost at 10 kHz adds some air and sparkle to the vocal. Track 14.110: Vocal 1 kHz Boost This is an equalized version of Track 14.108. An 11 dB boost at 1 kHz adds some nasal character to the voice.
