6.4.12.1 _ADD A PEQ
To add a PEQ, click on the Add↓ button. A new line will appear in the table. This line is a Parametric Equalizer
band. You can add as many bands as possible per channel.
The overall procedure to configure a PEQ is as follows:
• Open the PEQ editor of the speaker (or driver) you want to edit;
• Add as many band as needed using the Add↓;
• Set the parameters of each band as wanted or as needed by the speaker’s manufacturer. The parameters are
explained bellow;
• Eventually control the result with the pink noise using the button ;
• If needed, save the settings as an EQ group, this makes easier to duplicate a setting on several speakers (proce-
dure explained later in this chapter);
• Close the PEQ editor with the Ok button at the bottom of the page.
Each PEQ band has the following parameters:
• Filter Type:
• The peak notch: Parametric equalizers are multi-band variable equalizers which allow users to control the
three primary parameters: amplitude, center frequency and bandwidth.
• The shelving high (1st or 2nd order): Shelving high filters cut or boost all frequencies equally above a desired
cutoff point.
• The shelving low (1st or 2nd order): Shelving low filters cut or boost all frequencies equally below a desired
cutoff point.
• Frequency: the center of the frequency range to be cut or boosted
• Gain: the amount of boost or cut (in dB)
• Q: the «sharpness» of the boost or cut. Higher Q meaning a narrower filter (not available for shelving second
order)
• Order (Only available for High and Low shelving filters): The order of a shelving filter is changing the shape of
the curve.
The PEQs are saved in a presets.
