SA270 EQ2 User Guide

Full MIDI Implementation – EQ2’s parameters can be accessed and controlled using MIDI messages

via its 5-pin DIN Input, a Neuro Hub connection, or USB port. Use MIDI messages to

engage/disengage the pedal, change presets, move parameters with a MIDI expression controller,

and more. Class-compliant USB-MIDI allows the EQ2 to work as a plug-and-play device with recording

software running on Mac and Windows.

External Control – Easily configure the EQ2 to work with a variety of expression pedals and

footswitches for flexible external control options

Full Frequency Range – Since the human ear can detect between 20Hz and 20kHz (20,000Hz), each

of the 10 bands can be set anywhere between 20Hz and 20kHz for ultimate sonic customization.
