Boost or cut the bass (lower) frequencies of the audio using a two-pole shelving filter with a response similar to that of a standard hi-fi’s tone-controls. This is also known as shelving equalisation (EQ).

The filter accepts the following options:

gain, g

Give the gain at 0 Hz. Its useful range is about -20 (for a large cut) to +20 (for a large boost). Beware of clipping when using a positive gain.

frequency, f

Set the filter’s central frequency and so can be used to extend or reduce the frequency range to be boosted or cut. The default value is 100 Hz.

width_type, t

Set method to specify band-width of filter.

h

Hz

q

Q-Factor

o

octave

s

slope

k

kHz

width, w

Determine how steep is the filter’s shelf transition.

mix, m

How much to use filtered signal in output. Default is 1. Range is between 0 and 1.

channels, c

Specify which channels to filter, by default all available are filtered.
