Using Equalization
� For a twangy, cutting sound, try boosting the High and Mid frequencies (putting new roundwound strings on your bass will help a lot also!):

� Whenever you get a really good EQ setting for a particular instrument or song, write it down (you�d be amazed how easy it is to forget these things!).
As you experiment with the EQ controls of the HS 1200, don�t forget that your bass also provides EQ controls in the form of its tonal settings�this can be particularly effective in instruments that have active circuitry. Also, try various EQ settings with and without the Shape switch in and with the Shape control (which imposes a filter) at different settings. For more information, see the �Effect of the Shape Control� section on the next page. Finally, bear in mind that the physical position of the HS 1200 will also affect its frequency response; when in its normal flat on the floor position (that is, with the speaker facing directly forward), there may be increased bass response due to the reinforcing of low frequency components by the floor itself. In contrast, when using the HS 1200 in its �KickBack�� position (where the HS 1200 acts much like a �wedge� stage monitor), you�ll hear increased highs due to the directionality of high frequency components.
