Hi Rob,

For example extreme bottom would usually be refered to as sub or sub bass freqs. I've always thought of extreme highs as 12+kHz, mids usually means roughly 1-4kHz. You then commonly hear terms like mid-highs, high-mids, etc. To a certain extent we tend to make it up as we go along, although we always seem to know what we are talking about?! Must be tricky if you're starting out, but you'll get the hang of it.

I've been in the music business for 25 years and there are no specific terms = frequencies, we use the terms as a rough guide and then specify the freq if we want to talk specifics.
