Note that the Gain of the current device is not adjusted automatically
and so may need to be altered by the user if large amounts of cut or
boost are applied.
Refer to Section 9.2 ‘Utilities’ - Gain.
The FLAT key can be used to temporarily flatten the current
equalisation curve for comparison purposes, or to permanently clear it
to start from scratch.
A brief press of the FLAT key will clear down the filter values and
channel gain allowing the resultant flat eq to be heard on the selected
Varicurve. Adjusting any filter parameter - or pressing FLAT again
briefly - will return the original equalisation curve.
A longer press of the FLAT key (about one second) will permanently
clear the current equalisation from the selected device. The curve is
gone forever - unless of course it had been stored. In Dual mode, FLAT
will only work on the current channel of a device. In Stereo, both
channels will be cleared.
To flatten a single filter, select the filter using the Speed Strip and then,
whilst still pressing the strip, select the FLAT key.
EQ Bypass on the Varicurve devices can be controlled on the remote
from within the Utility menu.
Refer to Section 9.2 ‘Utilities’ - BYPASS.
A curve examine mode available on the FCS-926 is also available on
the 900r. View is enabled from within the Utilities menu. Press the
UTILS key, select the strip under VIEW and turn the parameter control
to make the box display ‘ON’. The cursor will change as shown
in
figure 5.2 . The parameter status boxes now only show the frequency
of the cursor and the dB cut/boost value (or values) of the displayed
curve at the cursor position. Turning the FREQUENCY control now
moves the cursor back and forth along the curve allowing the user to
read off the exact boost value at any point.
Refer to Section 9.2 ‘Utilities’ - VIEW.
