It kills the string noise and fret buzz quite well. I also set my LPF between 4-5kHz depending on what I'm hearing in the venue. It just works and you don't even realize that its working until you turn it off, and then you go."OH HELL NO TURN THAT BACK ON". If you play soft its smooth.if you play hard its smooth. The only way I can describe it is that its really smooth and doesn't abruptly hack your signal like a lot of other filters do. That damn thing is smooth as silk!!! I don't know what it is about it that makes it stand out but its definitely different than any other filter I've played on. As far as the filters I use.the Fractal filters do a really good job, BUT.I have a Broughton Audio H/LPF pedal that is a -12dB/octave (second order) Butterworth response filter. It just depends on the desired end result for the bass tone on the track. For the record most Engineers will add some HPF to the bass tracks. Maybe you love your tube amp but dont want. Simply connect to a cab, bring your guitar and pedals, and youre ready to rock The Seymour Duncan PowerStage 170 is a game-changing product for guitar players that have dreamed of the day their entire rig can live on their pedal board. Tweak the filter a little and do it again until it starts cleaning up the way you want it. Seymour Duncans PowerStage 170 is a 170-watt amp in pedal form. The 170’s intuitive 3-band analog EQ allows for quickly fine-tuning your sound for any cabinet and any venueno need.
Simply bring your guitar and your pedalboard and get your tone through whatever cab is provided. Play and record a riff for about 20 seconds on your lowest strings and open E or B to see how its coming through. The PowerStage 170 will give you reliable, musical power on every gig, eliminating the uncertainty that backline amps can bring. Once again it really comes down to what the Engineer wants and how the tone is coming through the recording. If you're going DI it really depends on the gear and what you're recording through. Smaller rooms are the worst and typically need the filter set a little higher to cut more low end. Mostly likely you will need a bit of filter but you have to play with it some to see how the room reverberates. If you're going to mic the cab then it depends on the room its in when recording. But this also depends on whether your mic'ing or going DI. There's little to no need for the HPF while recording unless the Engineer feels that it needs it. For me since I stopped playing through tube amps and switched to neutral power amps and modeling, the tone still comes through at lower volumes.
