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.

poles, p

Set number of poles. Default is 2.

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.

normalize, n

Normalize biquad coefficients, by default is disabled. Enabling it will normalize magnitude response at DC to 0dB.

transform, a

Set transform type of IIR filter.

• di
• dii
• tdii
• latt
• svf

precision, r

Set precison of filtering.

auto

Pick automatic sample format depending on surround filters.

s16

Always use signed 16-bit.

s32

Always use signed 32-bit.

f32

Always use float 32-bit.

f64

Always use float 64-bit.
