EQ Solo
The EQ Solo button isolates the EQ band that you are currently adjusting,which helps you to
accurately adjust Q and frequency of that band. Touch an EQ frequency or Q control and you
will hear only that band.
The red light to the left of the Solo button is an EQ headroom indicator. It is triggered when the output of the EQ section
reaches -3 dBFS.

• In and Out switch the meter between input and output.
• Level Indicator displays levels in VU, where -18 dBFS = 0VU. A red LED indicates clipping.
Click on the meter to remove the clip warning.
• Output Fader controls the output level of the processor.
• Width shapes the signal’s stereo image from normal full stereo (Standard) to mono (center
position) to reversed full stereo (Rev).
• Extra Wide is the width enhancer that lets you spread the sound image wider than the
loudspeakers. It’s an aggressive effect that alters the signal’s phase structure and reduces mid-
signal content, so it’s important to use it carefully. The amount of the Extra Wide effect is
influenced by the Mono control.
• Filter is a low-frequency shelf at approximately 200 Hz (before width adjustment) that helps to
maintain the integrity of the center during extreme width processing.
