Preset too Boomy

[Dylan K]

I am struggling with some of the presets I've made sounding too boomy. An example can be heard in the attached mp3 file. I am using scene 2 in the attached preset.

Boominess typically occurs around 250Hz, the best way to hone in on the offending frequency is to sweep with a parametric EQ. Start with a narrow range cut of around -6dB at around 100Hz, and slowly increase the frequency while playing until the boominess gets noticeably lower. There’s your frequency to pull down.

I'm guessing 150Hz.

You don't mention anything about how you're monitoring or the room you're in.

Both can have a big impact...

the example mp3 is not boomy at all.

Boominess is usually the room or the monitors. Typically occurs between 100 and 200 Hz. Room treatment is recommended.

Just the drive, amp and cab blocks enabled sound not boomy. Every boominess is introduced by those interesting addition of filterblocks etc. I'd review your approach.
