Graphic EQ Controls
Control each of the thirty bands of EQ with high resolu-
tion, 256 step slide controls. The center detent position
guarantees a flat response. Slide control travel is 25 mm.
Custom soft-touch knobs are comfortable and easy to read.
Perfect-Q™ filters guarantee accurate graphic response and
no band interaction.
The elimination of band interaction means the DEQ 60
EQ filters are suitable for “ringing out a room” and capable of
the very subtle adjustments required by the most demanding
user. Unlike previous designs that act upon a bandwidth of up
to one octave when cut 12 dB, Perfect-Q only affects the
intended 1/3 octave. For the first time, the user is able to
adjust a single 1/3 octave band with no affect on adjacent
bands. The lack of band interaction guarantees slider settings
accurately indicate frequency response.

“Perfect-Q: The Next Step in EQ Design” included with this
manual.
