Adjusting Band Parameters
To adjust boost, Q/ slope or frequency simply
turn the corresponding knob (see Table 1).
To adjust the mode, activate the band. Press a
key (Table 2) to change the mode value. The
active mode is highlighted and the adjacent soft-
key is lit.
If the band bypass is on (highlighted), its filter
settings (type and parameters) are saved but have
no effect on the audio signal. Turning bypass off
will restore the previous band settings.
Bypassing all bands is sonically equivalent to
using the overall bypass (refer to
EQ Bypass) if the gain is set to 0.0dB.
Controls
See Graph 1: Front Panel Elements,
Ž
.
Safe
Pressing the “safe” key will disable all front panel
controls (remote control is still possible) and the
key will be lit. Press it again to restore front panel
control.
CH1 & CH2
These two keys patch the band controls to the
according channels. The band controls can either
be separate for each channel or ganged together.
The key is lit for the active channel.
To copy CH1 settings to CH2 or vice versa, press
the “copy” key and select an option (Graph 6).
Ganged
When this key is lit, the band controls act for
both channels simultaneously. Switching channels
while the “ganged” key is lit will activate CH1 and
CH2 settings alternately for both channels.
If ganged is off, the controls will affect the active
channel only.
