This can amplify the lower frequencies and higher frequencies of your audio independently. It behaves just like the bass and treble controls on a stereo.

Bass and Treble dialog

Bass (dB)

The amount of gain (amplification above 0 dB or attenuation below 0 dB) to bass (low) frequencies. Set this to a positive amount to boost the bass, or to a negative amount to reduce the bass.


Treble (dB)

The amount of gain (amplification above 0 dB or attenuation below 0 dB) to treble (high) frequencies. Set this to a positive amount to boost the treble, or to a negative amount to reduce the treble.


Gain (dB)

This is like a "volume" control that adjusts the overall level. Applying boost to the bass or treble will tend to increase the overall level and may push the overall level so high that it distorts. Similarly, reducing the bass or treble may cause the overall level to be too quiet. This control allows the overall level to be adjusted to compensate for excessive change in the overall level.
