Example tips from pro mixer:

Easy-To-Remember Golden Rules Of EQ:

1. If it sounds muddy, cut some at 250Hz.
2. If it sounds honky, cut some at 500Hz.
3. Cut if you're trying to make things sound better.
4. Boost if you're trying to make things sound different.
5. You can't boost something that's not there in the first place.

31 Hz Rumble, "chest"
63 Hz Bottom
125 Hz Boom, thump, warmth
250 Hz Fullness or mud
500 Hz Honk
1 KHz Whack
2 KHz Crunch
4 KHz Edge
8 KHz Sibilance, definition, "ouch!"
16 KHz Air
