9 Shape This parameter is used to specify whether shelving or peaking equalization is to be
applied within the two end bands — namely, Low and High. It is available only when
MEQ has been set to “Low” or “High”.
Setting values: shelv (Shelving EQ), peak (Peaking EQ)
shelv
Signals at all frequencies either above (“High”) or below (“Low”) the specified frequency
will be uniformly boosted or cut.
peak
Signals within a band of frequencies around the specified frequency will be boosted or cut
in a localized fashion.
Gain This parameter is used to specify how much signal levels in the vicinity of the fre-
quency set using the
Freq parameter will be boosted or cut. Gain levels for the indi-
vidual frequency bands can also be set using the [MASTER EQUALIZER] knobs on
the control panel.
Setting values: -12dB to +12dB
0 (10) Freq (Frequency) This parameter is used to set the central frequency around which levels will be cut or
boosted.
Setting values:
Low
When Shape is set to “shelv”: 32Hz to 2.0kHz
When Shape is set to “peak”: 63Hz to 2.0kHz
LowMid, Mid, and HighMid
100Hz to 10.0kHz
High
500Hz to 16.0kHz
Q (Resonance) This parameter is used to create a range of different frequency-curve characteristics
in the vicinity of the frequency set using the
Freq parameter. If you set a large value,
a narrower band of frequencies will be boosted or cut, and the tone will change
markedly around the center frequency. If you set a smaller value, a wider band of fre-
quencies will be boosted or cut, and the tone will change more gradually around the
center frequency.
Setting values: 0.1 to 12.0
NOTE
The Q parameter is unavailable for the Low and High bands when their respective
Shape parameters have been set to “shelv”.
