The Focus Engine packs a tremendous amount of equalization
power into two switches and a knob. The primary thinking
behind this engine was to provide a seriously transformative
pair of shelves that reach deep down into the midrange to
allow for broad adjustments to the timbre and raw energy of
the sound. The corners were deliberately tuned to grab all of
the high frequencies from the ultrasonics down through the
telephonics (Lift), or to do the same but leave the telephonics
alone (Open).
The controls map out as such:
Lift ---------- |---- Lowest band, mids (~800hz) and up
Open ------- |---- Next band, upper-mids (~3k) and up
Tight ------- |---- Bell curve
Out --------- |---- Engine Bypass
Diffuse ------ |---- Shelving plateau
