7Equalization adjustment—DIGITAL EQ

You can adjust five frequency bands (center frequency: 63 Hz, 250 Hz, 1 kHz, 4 kHz, 16 kHz) within the range of –8 dB to +8 dB (“0 dB” is the initial setting) in 2 dB steps.

•When adjustment is made, the DIGITAL EQ indicator lights up on the display.

To flat the equalization pattern, set all the frequency bands to “0 dB” in step 4 of “Basic Procedure” (on page 29). The DIGITAL EQ indicator goes off from the display.

Notes:

•When Analog Direct is in use, Digital Equalization patterns are not available.
