User's Manual

Try setting a low shelf filter to band 3 and make changes to the gain setting. You will see the
changes are weighted towards the low end frequencies on the graph.
A description for each filter type is provided below.
Bell High Shelf Low Shelf
This filter is used to increase
or decrease a range of
frequencies surrounding
adefined frequency.
Lets you increase or
decrease the level of volume
for higher frequencies along
the graph.
Lets you increase or
decrease the level of volume
for lower frequencies along
the graph.
Notch High Pass Low Pass
This filter lets you remove,
orcut, a defined frequency.
Smoothly removes extreme
low end frequencies, allowing
the high end frequencies to
pass unaffected.

TIP It’s not uncommon to have filters on each band overlapping on the graph
curve with adjustments working together. For example, you may have a low shelf
filter applied to band 4, and a notch filter on band 5 reducing a frequency within the
same range.
Dynamics Controls
In addition to the 6 band parametric equalizer, you can also enhance and finesse the input
andmaster output audio using dynamics controls. Where the equalizer lets you control the
frequencies within a signal, dynamics controls let you set how various levels behave. Levels
within the signal can be adjusted including expanding the dynamic range between low levels
and high levels, gating an input so you can choose what is stronger or softer within a signal,
oryou can even use the compressor and limiter so that audio can be generally lifted and made
stronger without clipping.
Combined with equalizer controls, these features are extremely powerful, giving you the ability
to precisely shape and define the audio, and generally optimize the sound of the master output.
This section describes the expander, gate, compressor and limiter controls.
The dynamics controls can be opened for each input and the master
output by clicking on its corresponding dynamics indicator
