Band Pass and Notch Filters
Band pass and notch filters can be thought of as extreme examples of the
peaking filter.
The Band Pass filter sharply attenuates all frequencies except for a band
centered around the cutoff frequency. The width of the pass band is set
by the bandwidth or “Q” control. The band pass filter is typically used to
isolate a particular frequency range in a track or mix.
The Notch Filter passes all frequencies except for a band centered around
the cutoff frequency, which is sharply attenuated. The width of the notch
is also set by the “Q” control. The notch filter is used to eliminate un-
wanted sounds appearing at a specific frequency in a track or mix.
