BlueViolince Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I'm guessing that the new global EQ (without throwing any more drama into all this) will fix the whole cab vs, DI brightness issue. What I should be able to do, once it's updated, is get my patches sounding good through my (insert frfr of choice here), and then switch to either cans or PA and roll down the hi cut until the extra brightness is gone, correct? If I bring it down until just before the frfr cab starts to lose top end, then it should be a closer match, if it works right. I always have to end up making lots of eq adjustment when I playing direct with IEMs, and maybe that will be solved soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunpointmetal Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Theoretically.....You'd probably have to work with all of the bands to get a useable loud FRFR patch to translate to headphones, but essentially, yes, you get it sounded awesome in one PA, the global EQ should be able to help you get that sound from another system, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueViolince Posted January 30, 2015 Author Share Posted January 30, 2015 Well, the biggest issue for me has always been rolling off the high end. In fact, my 2nd outboard EQ pedal pretty much stays in a hi roll-off state. Anything else can be ignored with the knowledge that it's good in the house, based on past experience. It's the difference between an overly dark sound and ice pick highs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clay-man Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 mid focus EQ is basically an Low cut and High cut filter. I imagine global EQ is more for shaping the final tone to suite whatever it's going out to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueViolince Posted January 31, 2015 Author Share Posted January 31, 2015 Yeah, but the brightness only becomes painfully apparent when going DI and/or using IEMs. Not when using a powered cab. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
