OPERATION
The following explanations assume that the equalizer is in power-up mode, i.e. no menu is ac-
tive. If a menu is active, press the “menu” key repeatedly until the status display appears.
Status Display
Graph 2: Status Display
The status display consists of four groups dis-
playing audio signal properties and information
about the current state of the EQ1. The groups
are situated adjacent to the softkeys to the right
of the LCD (Graph 2).
Channel Status Group
Situated adjacent to key A, displays the following
information:
sampling frequency in kHz: “44.1”, “ 48”,
“88.2” or “96”
pre-emphasis: “E” appears if pre-emphasis
is set (empty if not used)
input output channel status data format:
“C” for consumer and “P” for professional
To change the output channel status data format,
press key A and select format type or loop
through.
Peak Group
Situated adjacent to key B, this group contains a
peak-hold and an over-hold for each channel. To
reset these values press key B twice.
Peak-Hold
The numeric peak value is measured relative to
0dBFS, where 0dB equals digital full scale.
Use this value to set the optimal gain for a specific
session. Reset it for every session.
Over-Hold
Whenever an over is encountered, the boxes to
the side of the peak-hold values are marked.
The functions of the over-LED’s and the over-
hold both depend on the
NUMBER OF
CONSECUTIVE OVER-SAMPLES
setting. To adjust
this setting, press key B once. Use the “gain/
data” encoder to change the value, then press
“menu” to return to the status display.
This setting defines the number of consecutive
over-samples needed for an over-indication. To
indicate every over-sample, enter 1. If another
value is entered, you are still able to detect a
single over-sample with the peak-hold function.
