Basic Operations

Compensation

There is no need to compensate frequency characteristics if they are flat (no peaks or valleys) when you have measured the frequency characteristics with a measuring device. However, sometimes the frequency characteristics rise or fall in some places. If this happens, the frequency characteristics must be compensated. Create a frequency curve having characteristics that are opposite to the center frequency of parts where the characteristics rise and fall to cancel out these peaks and values, and make the frequency characteristics as flat as possible.

Making the frequency characteristics as flat as possible is called “Compensation”.

On this unit, frequency characteristics can be compensated by P.EQ (Parametric Equalizer).

Q curve

The Q curve becomes sharper when the numerical value is increased, and smoother when the numerical value is decreased.

Flat frequency characteristics can be made by selecting a Q curve opposite to that of the curve to be compensated.

Q curve : 20 Q curve : 1

Setting P.EQ

P.EQ (Parametric Equalizer) allows you to compensate the entire frequency level range in detail by smooth curve using frequency compensation matched to the type of your car.
