• Adjustments Needed:
  • From 500 Hz to 1k Hz: Increase by 3 dB for softer sounds.
  • At 2k Hz: Increase by 3 dB (correction from earlier decrease).
• Fine-tuning:
  • At 5k Hz: Reduce by 2 dB.
  • At 2k Hz: Increase by 2 dB.

Step 3: Loud Adjustment

• Adjustments Needed:
  • Low frequencies from 2k to 7k Hz: Reduce by 3 dB.
  • Broad range from 250 Hz to 15k Hz: Reduce by 3 dB.
  • Specific range from 250 Hz to 4k Hz: Reduce by 6 dB.

Finalization
