Ok this question or task is for Leon Todd or any other pro out there. We all suffer from the fletcher Munson effect when we crank up our frfr speakers. I personally use the QSC 8.2, 10.2 and 12.2 series speakers. Pretty good speakers, but like all speakers, get brighter the louder you push them.
I have been trying to set up my volume pedal to address this. Now I know it is possible to set my hardware master volume and frfr levels to peel paint. I have been tweaking my volume pedal to control my output volume IN TANDEM with a multi band compressor level to compensate for this. That is, the higher the loudness volume, the higher the level of multi band compression to reign in the offending mid and high frequencies our ears are magnifying. I have been trying to balance the control percentages of the level of the compressor to work seamlessly with the overall loudness. Starting at 50% and going to say 80% something like that for level. It is a finesse game. Notching the frequencies seems like the easiest part.
I know Cliff, Leon, Cooper etc will probably be able to work this out much better than little old me. My brain already hurts. This is such an issue that I would think it deserves its own block eventually. However, given my limited knowledge of super deep diving with the insane capabilities, I feel I am close to achieving what I want but am suffering feedback issues. Maybe it's not there yet? Whoever solves this, would be up for a Nobel prize, as this is tantamount to solving fission IMHO. The task is basically keeping the perceived frequency responses linear as you raise the overall loudness. I know all speakers are different, but something basic would work for most situations with a tiny bit of tweaking. And please, for the love of the community, this is too important to charge for it if you solve the issue. Do it for the good of all humanity. With the collective brain power on this forum, I know this can be solved. OK.... Go!!!
ps: Leon I will buy 10 copies of every CD if you solve this lol...
