EQ Mixer View
EQ Mixer view allows you to edit one equalizer parameter for all channel strips: Frequency,
Gain, Q, or EQ bypass. The EQ band number, and parameter being edited, are displayed
briefly when you switch to this mode.
• The mode display shows E1 to E8, indicating the selected EQ band.
• The upper LCD row shows channel strip names.
• Turning the V-Pots changes the current EQ parameter.
• Pressing a V-Pot button sets the parameter to its default value.
• Cursor Up/Cursor Down switches to the next or previous EQ band.
• Cursor Left/Cursor Right switches to the next or previous EQ parameter. The selected
parameter is displayed briefly in the upper LCD row.
• Pressing a MUTE button while holding down the SHIFT button switches the current EQ
band’s Bypass status.
• When Flip mode is turned on, the MUTE buttons display, and switch, the current EQ
band’s Bypass status.
Note: Ensure that the ZOOM button isn’t active when using the cursor buttons.

channel strip.
• The mode display shows EQ (EQ channel strip).
• The upper row of the LCD shows the name of the channel strip, EQs, the page number,
