Q3 PRESET EQUALIZATION CURVES

Although printing the preset curve data is somewhat superfl uous, we have decided to include 
it in the manual so that you can get a ‘visual’ of what each individual preset curve looks like. 
DO NOT get caught looking at curves to make audio decisions. Use your ears!  Once you 
get started, you will fi nd that getting around the Q3 will be very natural and incredibly quick.
