How to Stop a Boombox's Bass Noise

A boombox has the potential to create very heavy bass sound. This may be undesirable for certain types of music, such as classical, country, folk and jazz. Using a graphic equalizer common to all stereo systems, you can reduce the amount of bass that is emitted from the speakers. Most boomboxes have a series of five adjustment levers that can be used to adjust varying frequencies in the music. The best setup usually looks like an arch in which the low frequencies and the high frequencies are reduced.

Step 1 Find the graphic equalizer levers. There will be anywhere from three to five levers on most systems. These levers will allow you to equalize your music to a level that is suitable to your tastes. It may be necessary to adjust them differently for each type of music.

Step 2 Locate the two levers on the far left. They will probably have numbers in the vicinity of 60 hertz and 300 hertz. These are the levers to adjust the bass. The other levers on a five-band equalizer are typically 300 hertz, 1 kilohertz, 5 kilohertz and 10 kilohertz, ranging from mid-bass to treble.

Step 3 Adjust the lowest lever so that it is pressed all the way down. The second lever should be adjusted about 1/4 of the way from the bottom. Tips

List of Musical Techniques and Their Meanings

Musical techniques are the building blocks of any basic music training. These techniques allow performers to improve their coordination and develop accuracy through repetitive daily exercises. Musical techniques progressively build upon previously learned techniques. Scales Scales form the basis for other musical techniques. Student may study major and minor scales as well as modern scales, such as the whole-tone and octatonic scales. A scale consists of patterns of half steps and whole steps. These whole steps and half-step arrangements will be different for each scale. Scales are musical techniques that can help a performer to play faster and more accurately, and make learning new pieces easier. Chords Chords require knowledge of major and minor scales. Chords come in several different forms that affect the sound. Triads consist of three notes spaced a third apart and classified as major, minor, augmented and diminished chords. Seventh chords build on triads and have an additional no

Why Claude Debussy Never Cared About Music Theory

  Claude Debussy was born on August 22, 1862. So, I felt writing a blog post to celebrate would be appropriate. Debussy was a revolutionary composer who challenged the conventions of Western music. He was influenced by the impressionist painters, the exotic sounds of gamelan music, and the symbolist poets. He created a musical language that was expressive, colorful, and atmospheric. One of the most remarkable aspects of Debussy's music is his use of harmony. He did not follow the rules of tonality and functional harmony that dominated the music of his time. Instead, he used modes, scales, chords, and parallel movements that created a sense of ambiguity and fluidity. He also experimented with timbre, texture, rhythm, and form to create musical images that evoked moods and emotions. Debussy's music can inspire us to think outside the box and explore new possibilities in our own compositions. We can learn from his innovative techniques and his artistic vision. We can also apprecia

Similarities of Classical and Baroque Music

Music has evolved through the centuries and undergone drastic changes. One of the most significant transitions was from the Baroque to the Classical period of music. In this paragraph, I will compare and contrast some of the main features of these two styles, such as ensembles, instrumentation, and counterpoint study. The Baroque and Classical periods of music have many similarities. While the style of music changed drastically, certain key elements remained the same between the two styles. Composers in the Classical period sought to simplify music and create clearly audible musical lines. In contrast, composers from the Baroque period were interested in creating complex and highly ornamented musical lines. The Baroque period occurs from approximately 1600 to 1750, and the Classical period extends from 1750 to 1820. Ensembles Ensembles are groups of musicians that perform together. Both the Baroque and the Classical period had similar types of ensembles, such as operas, orchestras, str
