Equalizer
The 10-band equalizer subdivides the frequency spectrum into ten areas
('bands') and equips them with separate volume controls. This way it is
possible to create many impressive effects, from a simple boosting of the bass
to complete elimination of a certain range of frequencies. Note: If low
frequencies are boosted too much, the overall sound level is heavily increased
which may lead to distortion. In this event, adjust the overall volume downward
by using the 'master volume' control situated at the bottom center of the effect
rack.
Slider control: Each of the ten frequency ranges can be separately boosted or
turned down with the ten volume controls.
Link bands: Using this button randomly combines the frequency ranges with
each other in to avoid artificial-sounding overemphasis of an individual
frequency range.
Touch screen (right EQ section): This is the 'sensor field' of the EQ. Here you
can draw any type of curve with the mouse. This will be immediately translated
into a corresponding control setting on the left side of the EQ.
Sketchable filter
This allows you to draw the craziest effects simply with your mouse. The left
side of the graphic represents low tones, the right side high tones. You can
switch on real-time playback by clicking on the "Test" button.
From now, all changes of the red line can be heard immediately. A “slope” in in
the left graphic causes a strong increase of the bass, a “slope” in the right side
strongly increases the highs. An interesting effect is to delete a filter curve over
an entire area, i.e. setting all the values in the display to low values). This
practically cancels the sound.
