Double Bass Bass ParaEq

As you see the break frequency (knee) of the filter moves with the amount of cut or boost.

There is no graphic for the High shelf. It's not clear if the break frequency moves as much or not on the High Shelf.

Thanks for offering explanations of the functions Bass ParaEq! I can confirm that the high shelf control on the pedal does not move break frequency. If anyone would like further clarification or definitive answers about the functions of the pedal you can ask me here or send an email to [email protected], we're always happy to help!

And when I say I clean, I mean clean. My board isn't the most complex in the world, but it's not small, and I've run into noise floor issues in the past. This configuration is nearly dead silent. The only pedal that introduces any noise is the Shallow Water when the LPG is wide open.

But the shelving filters are the only thing on the Empress unit that don’t have a frequency noted. That’s what I find confusing.

There is the matter of real estate. With 14 knobs, two foot switches, and two LEDs, I'm not sure where they'd put that info...

Traditionally, though, shelving filters rarely have their frequency centers listed. The knobs are usually simply "low/bass" and "high/treble."

In this case, you can see them in the manual screenshot @Wasnex posted: The low shelf frequency varies with (the absolute value of) gain, and the high shelf frequency is fixed at 1KHz.

This looks like a fantastic eq in one analog box. [Rant: It blows my mind that even the $1K+ Felix makes you choose between having an hpf OR notch filter]
