Chapter 5 EQ 57
Channel EQ
The Channel EQ is a highly versatile multiband EQ. It offers eight frequency bands,
including low and highpass filters, low and high shelving filters, and four flexible
parametric bands. It also features an integrated Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) Analyzer
that you can use to view the frequency curve of the audio you want to modify,
allowing you to see which parts of the frequency spectrum need to be boosted or cut.
You can use the Channel EQ in many ways: to shape the sound of individual tracks or
audio files, or for tone-shaping on an overall project mix. With its Analyzer and graphic
controls, it is very easy to observe the audio signal and make adjustments in real time.
Channel EQ Parameters
On the left side of the Channel EQ window is the Gain control and parameters for the
Analyzer, while the central area of the window includes the graphic display and
parameters for shaping each EQ band.
 Master Gain slider and field: Sets the output level of the signal. After boosting or
cutting individual frequency bands, you can use the Master Gain fader to adjust the
output level.
 Analyzer button: Turns the Analyzer on or off.
 Pre/Post EQ button: When Analyzer mode is active, sets whether the Analyzer shows
the frequency curve before or after EQ is applied.
 Resolution pop-up menu: Choose the sample resolution for the Analyzer from the
menu. The choices are: low (1024 points), medium (2048 points), and high (4096
points).
Graphic Display Section
 Band On/Off buttons: Located above the graphic display. Click a button turn the
corresponding band on or off. Each button has a icon showing the type of EQ it uses:
 Band 1 is a highpass filter.
 Band 2 is a low shelving filter.
 Bands 3 through 6 are parametric bell filters.
