Using EQ

LS9-16/32  Owner’s Manual

The window contains the following items.

1

TYPE I, II buttons

These buttons select the EQ type. If the TYPE I button 
is on, the EQ will use the same algorithm as previous 
Yamaha digital mixers; if the TYPE II button is on, a 
newly-developed algorithm will be used. Using TYPE 
II will reduce interference between bands.

B

FLAT button

This button resets the GAIN parameter of all bands to 
the initial value (0.0 dB). When you move the cursor 
to this button and press the [ENTER] key, a dialog box 
will ask you to confirm the operation.

C

EQ graph

This graph shows the approximate response of the EQ 
parameters. A pointer is shown at the peak of each 
band. Operating the Q, FREQ, or GAIN knobs of each 
band will change the response curve accordingly. If 
EQ or high-pass filter is on, the response curve will be 
highlighted.

D

Level meter

This meter indicates the peak level before the EQ and 
after the EQ. If the signal has overloaded before or 
after the EQ, the OVER segment will light. If the cor-
responding channel is stereo (a ST IN channel, a MIX 
channel / MATRIX channel that is set to stereo, or the 
STEREO channel), level meters for two channels will 
be displayed.

E

ATT knob

This knob specifies the amount of attenuation/gain 
before entering the EQ, in a range of -96 dB–+24 dB. 
Use this to compensate for level changes caused by the 
EQ.

F

HPF FREQ knob, HPF ON/OFF button 
(input channels only)

This knob and button let you adjust the cutoff fre-
quency of the high-pass filter placed immediately after 
the attenuation and before the EQ, and switch it on/off. 
The cutoff frequency can be adjusted in a range of 20–
600 Hz.

G

EQ ON/OFF button

This switches the EQ on/off.

H

LOW shelving button

If this button is on, the LOW band EQ will switch to a 
shelving type. In this case, the LOW band Q knob will 
not be shown.

I

Q/FREQ/GAIN knobs

For each of the LOW, LOW MID, HIGH MID, and 
HIGH bands, these knobs adjust the Q (steepness), 
FREQ (center frequency), and GAIN (amount of 
boost/cut).

J

HIGH shelving button

If this button is on, the HIGH band EQ will switch to a 
shelving type. In this case, the HIGH band Q knob will 
not be shown.

K

Low pass filter button

If this button is on, the HIGH band EQ will operate as 
a low-pass filter. In this case, the HIGH band Q knob 
will not be shown, and the GAIN knob will operate as 
a switch that turns the low-pass filter on/off.

L

High-pass filter button (output channels 
only)

If this button is on, the LOW band EQ will operate as a 
high-pass filter. In this case, the LOW band Q knob 
will not be shown, and the GAIN knob will operate as 
a switch that turns the high-pass filter on/off.

5

To turn the EQ on/off, move the cursor to 
the EQ ON/OFF button and press the 
[ENTER] key.

If you want to make settings in the ATT/HPF/EQ 
popup window, move the cursor to the desired button/
knob and use the [ENTER] key, the dial, or the [DEC]/
[INC] keys.

• You can move the cursor to one of the knobs in

 and press 

the [ENTER] key to switch the EQ on/off.

L

• You can also adjust the Q, center frequency, and boost/cut 

amount using the EQ [Q], EQ [FREQUENCY], and EQ [GAIN] 
encoders of the SELECTED CHANNEL section. In this case, 
use the EQ [HIGH], EQ [HIGH MID], EQ [LOW MID], and EQ 
[LOW] keys to select the band that you want to adjust. You 
can also switch EQ bands for editing by moving the cursor 
onto a parameter of the desired band.
