Band Enable Button
(7 Band EQ and 2–4 Band EQ Only)
The Band Enable button on each EQ band tog-
gles the corresponding band in and out of cir-
cuit. When a Band Enable button is highlighted,
the band is in circuit. When a Band Enable but-
ton is dark gray, the band is bypassed and avail-
able for activation. On the 2–4 Band EQ, when a
Band Enable button is light gray, the band is by-
passed and unavailable.
Band Gain Control
Each Peak and Shelf EQ band has a Gain control
for boosting or cutting the corresponding fre-
quencies. Gain controls are not used on
High Pass, Low Pass, or Notch filters.
Frequency Control
Each EQ band has a Frequency control that sets
the center frequency (Peak, Shelf and Notch
EQs) or the cutoff frequency (High Pass and
Low Pass filters) for that band.
Q Control
Peak and Notch
On Peak and Notch bands, the Q
control changes the width of the EQ band.
Higher Q values represent narrower bandwidths.
Lower Q values represent wider bandwidths.
Shelf
On Shelf bands, the Q control changes the
Q of the shelving filter. Higher Q values repre-
sent steeper shelving curves. Lower Q values
represent broader shelving curves.
Band Pass
On High Pass and Low Pass bands,
the Q control lets you select from any of the fol-
lowing Slope values: 6 dB, 12 dB, 18 dB, or 24 dB
per octave.
