Presets 33-40: Kick Drum

With the "Kick Drum" preset it won't surprise you that the mid-low region is very well in evidence. High and mid frequencies
are slightly attenuated. You'll find this well suited to tracks where you want to give extra emphasis to the drums and bass.

Presets 41-48: Mixdown

"Mixdown" is less bright than "Clean" and the mid-low region is more in evidence. It's good for underlining bass and drums
without losing definition in the rest of the range. Suited also to harmonically complex instruments, such as double bass.

Presets 49-56: Jumping Up

The sound of the curiously named "Jumping Up" preset group is quite similar to "Clean" in its general timbre.
It does a great job of getting the best out of male voices and is capable of maintaining the balance and definition in the
performance even during soft musical passages. For female voices the "Clean" preset is likely to be preferred, so it all
depends on whether you're into Divas or Crooners.

Presets 57-64: AGC Pure

As the name suggests, this group of presets provides a pure and simple automatic level control. Its speed (that is, the
speed with which it applies itself to the incoming signal) varies with the seven different variations.
From the timbre point of view it's a rather neutral process, and it doesn't alter the general balance of the original signal.
It simply keeps the level in proximity of a predetermined 'ideal' level. This helps to correct for differences between signal
sources (AM/FM radio, cassette tape, CD etc.) as well as compensating for the effects of background road, wind and
engine noise on the detail and tonal balance of the music.
