EQ Gain Low
This measurement shows different settings of the EQ gain controller between middle and fully
counter-clockwise position at a center frequency of 1.5 kHz. The diagram shows the effectiveness
of the filter: The lower frequencies are boosted up to 6 dB, then the curve crosses zero at the center
frequency. The high frequencies are attenuated at the same time, and in the extreme setting of
the controller even a 6 dB low pass filter is available. Depending on the setting of the EQ gain, the
overall level possibly needs to be adapted with the gain controller.
EQ Gain High
Here we have the opposite scenario. In this figure the EQ gain controller is turned from 0 to fully
clockwise position at a center frequency of 500 kHz. Contrary to the previous example, the high
frequencies are now boosted up to 6 dB and the lower frequencies are attenuated in a way that
the most extreme setting produces a 6 dB high pass. This special characteristic of the filter pro-
vides a broad spectrum of sound shaping possibilities, ranging from very subtle to extremely obvi-
ous sonic changes.
