In
- Switch the PEQ in or out of circuit. The curve turns
yellow when switched in and grey when switched out.
Type
- The LF and HF EQ bands may be set as shelving,
bell shaped or low/high cut filter response. When set as a
filter the response is 12dB/octave.
Frequency
- Sweeps the shelving, centre or cut-off
frequency depending on the type of the EQ band.
Width
- Adjusts the width of the bell shaped EQ band.
Push and turn the Frequency rotary or use the screen. The
value is shown in octaves. Higher values up to 1.4 affect a
wider range of frequencies. Lower values down to 1/9th
affect a narrower range. A value of 1/3 has a similar affect to
the Graphic EQ.
Gain
- Allows up to +/-15dB boost or cut for each EQ
band. 0dB represents a flat response. It is typical to cut
rather than boost when live mixing.
HPF
- The High Pass Filter attenuates low frequencies
below its cut-off frequency with a slope of 12dB/octave.
Switch in or out using the In button. The HPF can also be
adjusted using the Preamp page.
Library
- You can store and name the current PEQ
settings as a preset in the Library.

Touch a frequency slider to highlight it. Drag the slider with
your finger or use the screen Rotary to adjust cut or boost
for the highlighted frequency band.
