PARAMETRIC EQ SCREEN
The Parametric EQ screen is used to adjust equalization for each of the processing channels (Output 1 & Output 2). Up to 28 bands of equalization, plus high-pass & low-pass filters, are available per channel. NOTE: Parametric & Graphic equalization techniques may be used simultaneously on the same channel, as long as the total number of bands per channel does not exceed 28. Frequency selects a center frequency for the current band. Gain selects the amount of cut or boost applied at the center frequency for the current band. Bandwidth selects the range of frequencies, above & below the center frequency, which will also be affected by the current band. Frequency, Gain, & Bandwidth may also be adjusted by dragging the cursors shown inside the upper graph area. Dragging the solid dot affects both Frequency & Gain. Dragging either of the open circles will affect Bandwidth. Add advances to a new parametric filter band (at 1kHz), leaving place-mark cursors for any previous bands. NOTE: Initially, there are no parametric filter bands available for adjustment, until Add has been selected. Delete erases the current band, and returns to the previous band. Delete All erases all parametric bands. Bands Used & Bands Available are shown above. The lower graph area shows the cumulative effect of all equalization. Right-clicking provides a menu of copy/paste functions, which allows settings of the 28 bands, plus high-pass & low-pass filters, to be copied from one channel to the other, or to another unit. ‘Meters’ are provided on each channel to display input/output levels at the EQ section. EQ Mode selects the Parametric EQ Screen or the Graphic EQ Screen (see Graphic EQ Screen on next page). Low Shelf adds a low-frequency shelving parametric band. High Shelf adds a high-frequency shelving parametric band. NOTE: Low Shelf & High Shelf bands are NOT affected by the Delete or Delete All buttons. They may only be deleted by means of their individual check boxes. Bypass EQ defeats all parametric & graphic equalization for that channel, without changing actual settings
