=== Piezo Pickup Thump  ===
If you have an Acoustic Guitar that is picking up low end thump from a percussive right hand technique use the Para EQ with settings like this.
*Level -15
*Frequency 50 Hz
*Width 0.50

=== Wind Noise  ===
:A microphone responds to the movement of air and it does not care what caused the air to move.  This means that a mic cannot distinguish between air movement originating from a talker, and air movement originating from local weather.  Wind noise is a persistent problem with microphones but there are multiple ways to minimize unwanted noise.
:Wind noise has a large amount of low frequency (bass) content, often described as “rumble.”  Cutting out the extreme bass from a microphone signal is an effective method to reduce audible wind noise.

Use the ParaEQ (Woody B called it the notch filter)
:I had an extremely windy gig last night. Even with windscreens on the mics they still had the wind rumble. I used the notch filter on my T1 to notch the wind sound out. I don't believe it's called a notch filter on the T1, but I don't remember the correct name. I just turned the volume way up, and adjusted the frequency until the wind noise was gone. I tried using the noise gate, but if it was high enough to eliminate the wind it also eliminated most of the vocals. Usually wind screens solve any wind problems I have, but the wind was so strong I kept my guitar case on stage to sit my guitar in, instead of using a stand. I believe the wind would have blown it over.
