extreme mid scoop help please!!!!!!!

[geoffro]

Hi Just me again.
I am wanting to try an idea with the ac-2 pedal circuit i have made.
I would like to cut the mid out if i could, at around the 1 to 1.1khz level as i was thinking this would help me in my endeavour to use a guitar with humbuckers to sound a little closer to a single coil as the varitone control does on the gibsons.
so my question is how can i achieve this, do i need to make something like the MR EQ which has a setting on it that cuts the mids right out and leaves the lo's and high's on, or since this circiut has a mid control in it with a bandpass filter of 1khz can i just do somthing with this???
i know i am probably asking a stupid question but i have been doing a lot of reading to try and get some knowledge so as not to bother people to much, but just a little nudge in the right direction would be of great help.
thanks

Weird. I was just looking at something like this.

You can use a 1.5H inductor with a resistor/cap to cut mids.

Ok so i have just found some info
and please correct me if i am wrong but with the 10k pot i already have in the circuit for the mid control if i conect it to ground will it or wont it cut my mids??

Where is the schematic?

Hi aron,
here it is mate.

hope that works

[aron]

I think you are right. If you remove R29 and connect the 10K directly to ground, it will cut more mids.

thanks aron,
one thing though do i still have the wiper of the pot going to c13

or do i do it like this

[aron]

Yes, the wiper still goes to C13

[geoffro]

so will this cut all the mids at 1khz or only some.
sorry for the noob questions, trying to learn a bit
thanks for the help but i appreciate it

Try it, it looks like it will work.

[geoffro]

yep just about to take the resistor out and put in a jumper and see how it goes
will let you know
cheers

ok i did it, and there is deffinitely an improvement, although there is a noticable drop in volume, but you cant have everything hey
now i just have to stabilise everything else now so when it goes back in the box it doesn't do the old heart beat thing
one thing i have noticed is the popping when i press the dpdt switch, i have the melenium circuit hooked up but it dont seem to be working real well.
cheers
