Pre Dynamics Switch
This switch offers the option to the switch the EQ before the dynamics section. By default the EQ is after
the dynamics section.
Graphic Display Window
This small window displays the settings of the currently selected EQ band in blue color and the resulting
curve of the whole EQ section in gray color. You can click and drag directly onto the handles (the small
blue or gray points) of the EQ bands to change the settings within the graph window.
Double-click anywhere in the window to open a bigger version. Please see The Big Graph Window
on page 211.
Band Selector
Click onto one of these five buttons to select the band to be manipulated by the Gain, Frequency and Q
control underneath. A band gets also selected if it is manipulated in the small or big graph window.
Selected band characteristics
These five buttons determine the characteristics of the selected EQ band. The choices from left to right
are High-Pass Filter, Low Shelving, Peak, High Shelving and Low-Pass Filter.
Selected Band On/Off
Switches the selected EQ band on or off. By default the five bands are switched off in order to econo-
mize DSP power, so don’t forget to switch an EQ band on before you can hear what it is doing.
Gain Control
-24 dB to +24 dB, boost and cut.
Frequency Control
The range for each band is depending on the sampling rate of the project:
• For sampling rates up to 48 kHz the frequency range of each band is 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
• For sampling rates up to 96 kHz the frequency range of each band is 20 Hz to 40 kHz.
• For sampling rates up to 384 kHz (e.g. DSD mixing) the frequency range of each band is 20 Hz to
80 kHz.
Q (bandwidth) Control
The range for the Q parameter is 0.2 up to 100. A Q of 0.2 results in a very wide bandwidth, a Q of 100
will give an extremely narrow notch.
