Quad Equalizer Bass Preset

Last updated: August 2026

Bass tends to reward a specific EQ shape — here's a starting point built for it.

Suggested Starting Values

Try +7dB at 60Hz, +2dB at 500Hz, -2dB at 2.5kHz, and -1dB at 8kHz. This leans hard into the low end for genres built around bass — dial it back a couple dB if it starts to feel boomy on your specific speakers.

Why This Shape Suits Bass

Bass-forward genres are mixed expecting a strong low end to carry the track, so this preset's heavy 60Hz boost and pulled-back high-mids keep the emphasis where the genre wants it, without competing high frequencies fighting for attention.
