 control is far over to the left (

min

, s. fig.), then the origi-

nal signal is not influenced (

flat

). Turning the control to the 

right (--> 

mid 

--> 

max

) mixes the relevant bass and treble 

mix to the original signal.

The 

balance

 control influences the 

relationship between bass and treb-
le. If it is in 

middle

 setting, bass and 

treble are balanced. The 

tone balance

 is now in equation. (s. 

fig. 1)
If you turn the 

balance 

control to the 

left

 (fig. 2), the bass 

range is further increased, but the treble is decreased by 
max. 0dB.

A turning to the 

right

 (fig. 3) affects an increase in treble 

whilst at the same time reducing the bass.

In its function and signal path the 

tone balance

 is delibera-

tely designed as a somewhat „different“ 

equalizer

.

 

It offers a 

comfortable way of giving the original signal more zip wit-

hout distorting it. Especially on those occasions, when the 

equalizer

 has to be used to suppress resonance or feedback.

5.4.2 Enhancer

The 

enhancer

 built into the 

colourizer

 adds harmonics to 

the source signal thereby creating more brilliance and clari-
ty. The 

enhancer level

 can be adjusted 

with the 

intensity

 control. Pressing the 

off/on

 switch will deactivate or activate 

the 

enhancer

.

5.4.3 Equalizer

The equalizer is a parametric filter network, adjustable from 

90 Hz to 11 kHz

 in two ranges: 

f1= 90 Hz – 1,6 kHz and f2= 

680 Hz – 11 kHz

. The ranges have been designed to meet 

the special requirements of acoustic instruments, micropho-
nes and other signal sources and to allow useful and accura-
te signal manipulation in order to suppress resonances and 
feedback. The filter technology ensures a constant band-
width at any selected frequency.

Note:

A parametric equali-
zer is a filter network 
where all features of 
a filter (amplitude, 
i.e. boost or cut = le-
vel, frequency and Q
