    LOW CUT FILTER 

    CHEAT SHEET 

    Recommended Frequency for Low Cut Filter 

    Vocals  Between 120Hz and 180Hz 

    Acoustic & Electric Guitars  100Hz 

    Pianos & Keyboards  100Hz 

    Bass Guitar  40Hz 

    Snare & Toms  50Hz 

    Drum Overheads  80Hz 

    Kick Drum  30Hz 

     
    Additional Tips 
     
    Vocals 
     
    Start at 120Hz. If the sound is still unclear, move the frequency up. If the sound 
    becomes too “thin”, move the frequency back down. You will most likely not set it higher 
    than 180Hz. 
     
    Kick Drum 
     
    Only use a low cut filter on your kick drum if your subwoofers are having a hard time.
