Amplifying on my post: 'Equalizer APO' should be installed first:
"Equalizer APO is a parametric / graphic equalizer for Windows. It is implemented
as an Audio Processing Object (APO) for the system effect infrastructure
introduced with Windows Vista."
https://sourceforge.net/projects/equalizerapo/
Peace is the GUI front-end to Equalizer APO.
I experimented in Peace to make a bass cut filter.
I selected the "Equalizer 5-Band" preset, then modified the filter and frequency of the first slider band.
Set Frequency to 40 Hz.
Right-click on the first band's filter and choose "High Pass Butterworth Filter (even orders only)".
This gives a sharp cut-off, as can be seen by displaying the Graph Window.
The standard "High Pass" filter has a sharp peak before the cut-off.
You can set the Graph Window to allow dragging of the handles.
