Can bass roll off affect audio lvls?

[Sean Freeland]

I use a Shure FP33 audio mixer, I have no problems with people speaking loud because I can gain them down, my problem is with people who speak too soft.
I use bass roll off on my mixer constantly and my limiter, do these effect my audio lvls being too low?

Thanks Sean.

Absolutely rolling off bass will affect levels. There is a lot of energy going on down there.

Take a recording of wind hurls and cut everything below 200 Hz, not much is left ... :)
I use the bass cut often, just be sure not to switch it on and off between takes. That'll be a pain in post.
