Dealing this new bright PP2000 I was recalibrating Macondo and once again I got a phenomenal demonstration of the power of a Fundamental Channel. Here is a short instruction of how to get THERE...

You setup your Fundamental Channel with your crossover and run it +2-3dB hotter than your MF. Then you close your eyes and begin very slowly drive the Fundamental Channel down, use increments of ¼dB.  Initially the sound will be heavy and dance, like badly played Schumann symphonies. Then it will be pick up some “orchestration details” and then suddenly it will burst with million lights of Xmas tree. You just find one boundary of Fundamental Channel calibration. Continue to drive the Fundamental Channel down. At some point you will feel that sound events stop to feel like hedgehog back and will be more like porcupine back. This is where you drove it down too much. You will have approximately ½ -1db of leverage where the Fundamental Channel might work. You can set your preferable level of Fundamental contribution. Very powerful and very nice expressive tool!
