Go to a pawn shop and get yourself a parametric eq with a sweepable mid and a
lowpass cuttoff filter.  Should be cheap as all get out and very common.  For
your space you can get accoustic foam, specifically bass traps which are
triangular foam parts that go into those nooks and crannies and keep the bass
from collecting there.  I believe that Musicians Friend and or zZounds has em
for not too much.

>>>> see i ahve a
huge problem with my apartment.  i am on a 3rd fl in a house, and my ceilings
have wierd angles, and there are all these little pockets and part where the
wall goes back and foot or 2.. point being  my bass gets trapped everywhere.
it rings really really really deep in some pockets, but in front of my speakers
its
no where near this deep.  i am moving very very soon, but right now i am
kinda screwed on my mix downs.   right now i know there is nothig to do about
this.  so is there such a thing as an external frequency "blocker", or do i need
to bite the bullet and bring my computer into the mix?
