How to quiet certain pitches in an audio file?

I've got an audio file and I think that the lower pitches are too loud and I want to make them quiet. I don't want to remove them entirely, just make them quieter. I suspect that it is possible to do this with Audacity, but I can't figure out how. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ―Panamitsu (talk) 02:59, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Most media players have an equalizer of some kind you could play with first to test to see if that's the problem. In VLC media player, for example, the equalizer can be found by clicking on Tools - Effects and Filters and selecting "audio effects" from the pop-up window.

That's it, thanks. EQ is what I was after. ―Panamitsu (talk) 06:14, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
