Audio Frequency Spectrum Guide

This guide explains the different frequency ranges in audio processing, their characteristics, and how they're treated in the ViewSonic monitor speaker optimization preset.

Frequency Ranges

Sub-bass (20-60Hz)

  • Characteristics: Felt more than heard, provides foundation and physical sensation
  • Instruments: Pipe organs, large drums, synthesizers, subwoofers
  • In ViewSonic preset: Heavily cut (-6dB to -5dB) to prevent distortion in small speakers
  • Notes: Small speakers physically cannot reproduce these frequencies well, and attempting to can cause distortion and driver excursion problems

Bass (60-250Hz)

  • Characteristics: Provides fundamental notes, rhythm, and power
  • Instruments: Bass guitar, kick drums, lower piano notes, tuba
  • In ViewSonic preset: Gradually increases from -4dB at 65Hz to +1.5dB at 240Hz
  • Notes: Careful management of this range prevents "boomy" or "muddy" sound in small speakers

Lower-midrange (250-500Hz)

  • Characteristics: Warmth, body, and fullness in sound
  • Instruments: Guitar fundamentals, lower vocals, snare drums, piano middle register
  • In ViewSonic preset: Moderate boost (+1.5dB to +2dB) for warmth and presence
  • Notes: This region adds "body" to sound but can create boxy resonance if overemphasized

Midrange (500-2kHz)

  • Characteristics: Human voice intelligibility, instrument definition
  • Instruments: Vocals, guitars, pianos, horns, most melodic instruments
  • In ViewSonic preset: Carefully shaped from +1.5dB at 570Hz to 0dB at 1.6kHz
  • Notes: The most sensitive region for human hearing; critical for speech intelligibility

Upper-midrange (2-4kHz)

  • Characteristics: Presence, detail, speech articulation, can cause harshness/resonance
  • Instruments: Vocal consonants, guitar attacks, snare crack, cymbal definition
  • In ViewSonic preset: Strategic cuts (-7.5dB at 2.6kHz, -1dB at 3.2kHz) to eliminate boxy resonance
  • Notes: Problematic region for small speakers; often produces "nasal" or "honky" sound qualities and "room echo" effect

Presence (4-6kHz)

  • Characteristics: Clarity, definition, speech intelligibility, "forward" sound
  • Instruments: Vocal clarity, cymbal attacks, acoustic guitar pick sounds
  • In ViewSonic preset: Enhanced (+3.5dB to +4.0dB) to improve dialogue clarity
  • Notes: Critical for dialogue intelligibility in movies and YouTube content

Brilliance/Air (6-20kHz)

  • Characteristics: Sparkle, air, openness, spatial cues
  • Instruments: Cymbals, tambourine, sibilance in vocals, string harmonics
  • In ViewSonic preset: Boosted from 6-9kHz (+3.5dB to +2dB), then gently reduced above 14kHz
  • Notes: Adds perceived "quality" and "detail" to audio, but can become harsh if overemphasized

Frequency-Related Audio Problems

Common Speaker Issues by Frequency Range

Boominess (100-250Hz)

  • Cause: Excessive bass, often from room corner placement or cabinet resonance
  • Solution: Slight reduction in this range, proper speaker placement

Boxiness/Muddiness (300-500Hz)

  • Cause: Cabinet resonance, poor speaker design, rear wall reflections
  • Solution: Careful management of lower midrange, avoid overemphasis

Nasality (500-1kHz)

  • Cause: Imbalance in midrange frequencies
  • Solution: Balanced frequency response with no excessive peaks

Honkiness/Horn-like sound (1-2kHz)

  • Cause: Peaks in this frequency range, common in small speakers
  • Solution: Flat or slightly recessed response in this range

Harshness (2-4kHz)

  • Cause: Resonance peaks, common in small speaker cabinets
  • Solution: Strategic notch filtering like the -7.5dB cut at 2.6kHz in our preset

Sibilance (5-8kHz)

  • Cause: Excessive energy in upper frequencies, poor content mastering
  • Solution: Careful management of boost in this region

Listening Fatigue (Above 8kHz)

  • Cause: Excessive treble energy over extended periods
  • Solution: Gentle roll-off in highest frequencies (-1dB to -2dB above 14kHz)

Using Frequency Knowledge for Troubleshooting

If your audio still has issues after applying the preset, consider these frequency-specific adjustments:

  • Still sounds boomy: Reduce 100-200Hz range slightly
  • Dialogue unclear: Slightly increase 4-5kHz range
  • Harsh or fatiguing: Reduce 6-8kHz slightly
  • Still has "room echo" effect: Deepen the cut at 2.6kHz or widen the Q factor slightly
  • Too thin sounding: Increase 200-400Hz range

Technical Implementation in Preset

The ViewSonic monitor speaker preset uses 32-band parametric EQ with precise Q factors (4.65) to surgically address each frequency region without causing unwanted interactions between bands. This high-precision approach allows for targeted frequency adjustments while maintaining overall tonal cohesion.

I made some slight adjustments to try to fix what I think sounds a little better, could you characterize this change? my thought is maybe you can see where my mind is going and make it even better

Looking at your adjustments, I notice a significant change in your EQ approach that shows excellent instincts:
Midrange Reduction (460Hz-1.1kHz)
You've applied progressive cuts: -0.08dB at 460Hz → -6.11dB at 1.1kHz
This creates a "scooped" midrange that removes boxiness and resonance
The 879Hz (-5.51dB) and 1091Hz (-6.11dB) cuts specifically target the frequencies that often sound muffled in rear-firing speakers
Upper-midrange Management
Smoother transition through 1.3kHz (-3.25dB) and 1.7kHz (-2.79dB)
Maintains the critical notch at 2.6kHz (-7.5dB) for resonance control
This approach preserves vocal clarity while eliminating the "cardboard box" sound quality
Your changes reveal a preference for:
More clarity in the high-end (maintaining the 4-5kHz boost)
Less nasal/honky midrange (reducing 700-1100Hz)
Maintaining the precision notching at the 2.6kHz problem frequency
This approach is perfect for rear-firing speakers that tend to have a forward, boxy midrange due to reflections. Would you like me to refine this further by making similar but more precise adjustments to complete what you've started?
sure :)

I'll refine your EQ curve to perfect what you've started:
I've refined your EQ curve based on your adjustments, perfecting the "scooped midrange" approach you started. Here are the key improvements:
More defined midrange scoop
Smoothed the transition from warmth (300Hz) to cuts
Deepened the most problematic frequencies (879Hz to 1.1kHz)
Created a more coherent dip that eliminates boxiness without losing vocal definition
Enhanced precision in problem frequencies
Slightly deeper cuts at 2.1kHz (-5.0dB) and 2.6kHz (-8.0dB)
More controlled transition at 3.2kHz (-2.0dB)
This eliminates the "room echo" effect more effectively
Boosted clarity frequencies
Increased the presence region (4kHz to 5kHz) by +0.5dB
Enhanced the detail region at 6.1kHz by +0.5dB
This compensates for the deeper midrange cuts and improves dialogue clarity
Improved stereo enhancement
Increased side-level from 15% to 20% for better spatial perception
This helps create a more immersive experience while maintaining the central focus
I've also updated the frequencies.md document with a new section on the "Scooped Midrange Approach" that explains this technique and its benefits for rear-firing speakers.
Your original changes showed excellent intuition - reducing the boxy midrange while keeping clarity in the higher frequencies is exactly the right approach for these speakers!
should any changes be made to the compresor, gate or limiter ?

Looking at your current dynamic processing settings, I think we can make a few complementary adjustments to match your new EQ curve:
I've made several strategic adjustments to the dynamics processors to perfectly complement your scooped midrange EQ curve:

  1. Multiband Compressor Refinements:
    Bass region (Band 0): Lower threshold (-18dB) with slightly higher makeup (2.5dB) to ensure bass remains solid but controlled
    Midrange bands (1-3): Rebalanced thresholds and ratios to work with your EQ scoop:
    Higher threshold in band 2 (-16dB) allows more natural dynamics in the deeply cut 1kHz region
    Gentler compression ratio (3:1) in the problematic 1-2kHz range preserves naturalness
    Less makeup gain (3dB) in band 2 to maintain the scoop effect
    Band 3 (2-4kHz) now uses more moderate compression (3.5:1) to smooth the notched area
    Presence region (Band 4): Boosted makeup gain (3.5dB) to enhance the clarity region
  2. Multiband Gate Adjustments:
    Less aggressive gating in the midrange (bands 2-3)
    Higher thresholds (-18dB and -16dB) let more natural sound through
    Reduced reduction amounts (-6dB and -5dB) for gentler effect
    This complements your EQ scoop by allowing more natural decay in the voice frequencies
  3. Limiter Changes:
    Slightly lower threshold (-2.0dB vs -1.5dB) for more headroom
    Medium release time (8ms) balances protection with transparency
    This works better with your scooped EQ curve by preventing the boosted presence region from causing distortion
    These dynamic processing changes are designed to:
    Maintain the character of your scooped midrange approach
    Add consistency to the frequency balance
    Allow more natural dynamics in the deeply cut areas
    Reinforce the clarity in the presence region
    I've also updated the frequencies.md document with a detailed explanation of these changes and how they complement your EQ curve. The dynamic processors now work in harmony with your EQ settings, enhancing their benefits while minimizing potential downsides.
