Baxandall Tone Control Circuit
This active Baxandall tone and bass control circuit has 12 dB boost and cut for frequencies less than 50 Hz, and greater than 15 kHz. It operates on a single rail supply; however, the non-inverting input requires biasing at ½ Vcc using a potential divider network. For the operational amplifier IC you could use the cheaply available NJM4558.
