UAD Powered Plug-Ins - 169 - Cambridge EQ
EQ Bands
All five of the EQ bands can be used in parametric or shelf mode. Each band
has identical controls, the only difference is the frequency range values.
The function of the controls is similar in both parametric and shelf modes. The
two modes are described separately (see “Parametric EQ” on page 170 and
“Shelf EQ” on page 173).
Enable Button Each band can be individually engaged with the Enable button. The button is
green when the band is enabled. All bands default to disabled. To enable
any band, click the Enable button.
You can use these buttons to compare the band settings to that of the original
signal, or to bypass the individual band. UAD DSP usage is slightly de-
creased when a band is disabled.
Frequency Knob This parameter determines the center frequency to be boosted or attenuated
by the Gain setting. The available range for each of the five bands is the same
for both parametric and shelf modes. The ranges are shown in Table 16.
Note: When operating at sample rates less than 44.1kHz, the maximum fre-
quency will be limited.
