USING THE 7-BAND FREQUENCY EQUALIZER

With the seven sliding frequency con- trols, you can tailor the sound pro- cessed through the mixer to fit the acoustic surroundings and your per- sonal taste.

Each control varies by ±12 dB the lev- el of a narrow band of frequencies centered around the frequency noted between the controls (60 Hz, 150 Hz, 400 Hz, 1 kHz, 2.4 kHz, 6 kHz, and 15 kHz).

Set the

switch to ON to turn on the frequency equalizer. Then slide the control up to boost the indicated frequency range or down to reduce it.

Notes:

If you set the control to the center position, the frequency range is unaltered.

In order to provide smooth fre- quency control, the effect of these controls must overlap slightly. Thus, the 1 kHz control has a slight effect on the range of fre- quencies covered by the 400 Hz and the 2.4k Hz controls.

Frequency

Purpose

 

 

 

 

60 Hz

Adjusts the frequencies in the low bass range (low organ notes

 

and bass drums). Reduces rumble or other low-frequency noise

 

 

150 Hz

Adjusts the frequencies in the low to middle bass range (low

 

organ notes, bass drums, timpani and some low-bass)

 

 

400 Hz

Adjusts frequencies in the middle-bass range (timpani and

 

some low-bass instruments)

 

 

1 kHz

Adjusts the range of frequencies in the middle frequency range

 

where the ear is most sensitive (vocals).

 

 

2.4 kHz

Adjusts the range of frequencies in the upper middle frequency

 

range that include vocals and some upper-midrange instru-

 

ments (clarinet and saxophone)

 

 

6 kHz

Adjusts the range of frequencies in the lower high frequency

 

range that include some vocals and upper-midrange instru-

 

ments (clarinet and saxophone).

 

 

15 kHz

Adjusts high-frequency sounds (cymbals, flutes, and violins).
