S curve 131 Features

The Samson S curve 131 Graphic Equalizer utilizes state-of-the-art, Constant Q filtering technology for precise tonal control. Here are some of it’s main features:

The S curve 131 has 31 bands of equalization, with each frequency band representing 1/3 of an octave in the 20 Hz to 20 kHz range.

Constant Q circuitry ensures that the bandwidth of the selected frequency area stays the same even when approaching maximum boost or attenuation. As a result, phase shifting and inter- modulation distortion is greatly reduced, making for pristine sound.

The S curve 131 can be set for either 6 or 12 dB of gain and attenuation for each of the fre- quency bands.

For monitor applications, the S curve 131 can be set for CUT ONLY mode providing up to 24dB of attenuation.

Ultra-low noise circuity ensures superb audio fidelity.

Variable Low Cut Filter for removing rumble and floor noise can be adjusted from 80 to 400 Hz.

Electronically balanced XLR and TRS inputs and outputs.

Front panel, hard-wired, relay controlled Bypass switches (with dedicated Bypass LEDs) allow the equalization circuitry and output level control to be activated or deactivated.

Main Level control enables output signal to be attenuated or boosted for optimum signal-to noise ratio.

LED faders and 8 segment LED bar VU meters.

Relay power-on circuitry prevents speaker “thumps” when the unit is turned on.

Internal power supply ensures reliability and trouble-free operation.

Standard 19" rack design (the S curve 131 requires only a single rack space) for easy integra- tion into any traveling or fixed installation audio system.

Optional security cover kit prevents EQ settings from accidentally being altered.

All-steel chassis makes the S curve 131 eminently road-worthy.

Three year extended warranty.
