4.3 Voice Boost

Human speech has a usable frequency range of 200Hz–8 kHz. Male speech bandwidth is roughly 200Hz–6 kHz while female speech bandwidth is roughly 400Hz–8kHz. To improve speech intelligibility, a bandpass filters or parametric equalizer boosts the voice band frequencies while suppressing other frequencies to lower background noise or other musical instruments.
