GENRE mode

The large FL display, 14-band equalizer and 27-spectrum analyzer features high visibility of information and make it possible to set EQ (equalizer) curves with high accuracy.

MANUAL:

Five preset patterns have been factory-preset for this mode, too. In

 

this mode, it is also possible to preset (assign) equalizer patterns

 

created by the user in place of the factory presets.

@

REFERENCE:

Five exemplary patterns have been preset at the factory. #

PARAMETRIC:

Equalizer curves can be created by setting up to 3 center

 

frequencies and the equalizing levels for them.

%

GRAPHIC:

The equalizer curve can be adjusted in a detailed way for every

 

frequency range. It is also possible to fine-adjust a curve which

 

has been created in the PARAMETRIC mode. The GRAPHIC

 

mode is to be used when detailed adjustment of acoustic

 

compensation is required.

&

A total of 30 playback patterns have been factory-preset by combining five recommended equalizer patterns with six music genres, so that any of them can be selected by actually comparing them. Similarly, selection from 30 types of recording patterns for playback on car stereo or from 30 types of recording patterns for playback on headphone stereo is also available. Select the optimum equalizer pattern according to the music genre and purpose of

use of the pattern.
