26 | ACTIVE EQUALIZER
Knobs
The three bands are equal, apart from their frequency ranges, and they all contain a gain control (labeled “+
dB –“), a frequency control (labeled “Hz” for the Low and Mid band, and “kHz” for the High band), and a
width and bypass control (the switch beneath the knobs).
Gain Control
Boost or cut in 2 dB steps (from –16 to +16 dB). Please note that all knobs are placed
as if they are up side down. It isn’t our fault – the original looked that way!
Frequency Select
Use this to set the center frequency of the bands. Unlike most of our stuff, where we
model a real unit with all its quirks and the labels never match reality, this sturdy unit
actually does what it say it does!
Width/Bypass Select
The switch lets you select between a sharp curve (leftmost position), bypass (middle
position) and a blunt curve (rightmost position).
Low Cut
An 18dB/octave filter with selectable bypass, ranging from Bypass, 80 Hz, 180, 240,
320 to 500 Hz.
High Cut
An 18dB/octave filter with selectable bypass, ranging from 5 kHz, 8, 10, 12, 15 kHz
and finally bypass in the 3 o’clock position.
Output
Output volume. Goes from nothing to +12 dB. At the 12 o’clock position, it’s set at 0
dB, and going clock wise will increase the output volume by +2dB for each mark.
Please note that all gain controls range from –16 to +16dB, which is a quite big range, so please take it easy
with the gain controls. In many cases, 6 or 9dB is the maximum gain you’ll need.
