Operating Overview

Q

:  Controls how wide or narrow the curve is of the frequency being boosted or cut.

Clockwise produces a wider or lower Q.  Counter-clockwise produces a narrower or

higher Q.

Boost/Cut:

Increases or decreases the frequency selected by its respective band by

+/-12dB.  Clockwise increases the gain of the frequency.  Counter-clockwise decreases

the gain of the frequency.  12 o'clock is neutral.

Frequency:  Controls which frequency each band is effecting.  Turning the knob clockwise

will raise the frequency.  Turning it counter-clockwise will lower the

Frequency

:  The LO

band range is 33Hz - 330Hz.  The MID band range is 250Hz - 2.5kHz.  The HI band

range is 1.1kHz - 11kHz.

Level:

Controls the overall volume of the EQ
