John, to get you a 'head start' on this, try a parametric EQ, make it pretty narrow, and cut at or about 500 Hz.

The problem is that you won't likely have direct control over just your vocal channel with the AVIOM, unless they have one of the newer Behringer personal mixers, which give limited bass, sweepable mid and treble controls for each channel.

AVIOM, even the newest A360 model, does not offer individual channel tone controls as far as I can tell - just a master tone control.

It's possible that you could send an EQ'ed version of your voice just to the monitor mix, but that is dependent on the sophistication of the mixing board that is used.
