hello, im trying to replicate this project to get a better understanding on how circuits work:https://makezine.com/projects/audio-spectrum-analyzer/ The bandpass filters frequency ranges weren't stated so i tried to calculate them and I got some odd numbers, specifically for the first band pass filter. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong? Also what are the 22k and 390k resistors used for?

Ok i feel stupid, the 22k and 390k resistors are to calculate the gain of the circuit. Still need help trying to figure out what i did wrong in my calculations please

There is nothing wrong with you calculations. It is not your fault that someone else's chooses bad components values.

ok so I decided to redesigned the band pass filters, since I want a total frequency range of 30-30khz I'm thinking of 30-3k, 3k-20k, and 20k-30k. What would be a good gain for the circuit? Also how would I connect all the bandpass filters to the display circuit? Am I right in thinking of connecting the three outputs of the bandpass filters together and making that the signal in of the display circuit?
