Brand new to this. How to make the Beat/Bassline not hurt?

Anything that doesn't fit into other topics goes here!
The default beat/bassline is so deep that it physically hurts. I'm not even wearing headphones.
I found the general settings for Kicker, but don't really know what to do to reduce the intensity of the bass.

I looked at the user manual, but I didn't understand much.

One common reason for muffled/ muddy mixing is frequency-fighting.
That is controlled and so some degree possible to avoid by using EQ-ing of the instruments.
Its difficult to explain so watch this video:
That bass can be intense, right? I had a similar issue with my setup. I found that tweaking the EQ really helped—try dialing down the lower frequencies around 60-100 Hz. If there's a bass boost option, definitely turn that off. It made a huge difference for me.
Try lowering the bass level in the settings; that usually helps. If there's an option for "cutoff frequency," bumping that up a bit might balance things out.

Great video. Musikbear. I have tried to implement this in my productions and the sound is definitely clearer and crisper. Especially if you want the mix to not sound muffled.
