Things seem pretty quiet around here lately so i'm gonna throw out my random EQing question. This is probably a fairly straightforward practice done by everyone but just want to confirm i'm doing this properly.
Say, for example, I have a bassline that is sitting between 60Hz and 200Hz. In order to properly EQ this would I set a bandpass EQ on it with the low end cutting off at 60hZ and the high end at 200hZ? Or should I use separately a low pass EQ cutting off at 200hZ and then separately a high pass EQ cutting off at 60hZ? By using the two EQ's separately I wouldn't have to mess around with the Q values on my EQ in order to maintain decent volume.
Also, I would be side chaining the bassline with my kicks because they would be occupying the same frequency range.
