Bongo HH/p settings spreadsheet

[drTStingray]

This is nearly correct .. this setting works only in the deeeep valleys inside the Austrian mountains. On them ountains, you'd have to raise the highs by another 25 percent.

Too right - if it worked for Julie Andrews voice...........................

Turn the bass or low mid control up too much and you can cause avalanches, distort building walls, make P basses run away in fright etc etc and that's just in England!

Everyone,

Every few weeks I find I get lost in the vast amount of control in my Bongo 5HHp. I've combed through the forums to see what suggestions have been made for settings for either a HH or an HHp. I did my best to formalize this list so if you see something that you don't agree with, well - sorry but that is how I interpreted it... but feel free to post a correction.

I'm doing this in case others find a use for this as I often refer to this list for help. (yes, I realize strings, setup, amp, room, etc all effect tone so please take these settings with a grain of salt)

Enjoy,
shakinbacon

All Settings in terms of Boost for a given parameter (0% = center detent).
TT=to taste.
NPU=neck pickup, Mag = Magnetic pickup, LM=low mid, HM=high mid
(ie. -100% NPU means no neck pickup and all bridge pickup)

I've just found this thread and just want to say it's a cool effort, man. Thank you for the time invested doing this!

Thanks for the note Alva. I love your youtube stuff.

I've been using a variation of Nickjimbass' settings to good effect recently
