Figure 7: Graphic EQ screen

Your DQX has 30 built-in graphic equalization filters with fixed, constant-Q center frequencies. These frequencies happen to match those on the AudioControl SA-3055 real time analyzer. In the Graphic EQ mode, you can select any of the 30 frequencies, one at a time, and apply boost or cut. In addition you select whether you want the equalization controls to affect the left and right channels individually or control both channels at the same time.

Freq(uency): This corner of the screen indicates which frequency you are boosting or cutting. If you wish to select another frequency, tap the left or right arrow buttons until the cursor is flashing on the number next to “Freq=”. Then use the “+” and “-” controls to select the frequency you wish to apply boost or cut.

Stereo or Mono Equalization: After you have selected a frequency to equalize, you must decide whether you wish to equalize the left channel, the right channel, or both channels simultaneously. If you are a first time user, we suggest you equalize both channels together at first and then individu- ally. Use the arrow keys to move the cursor to one of the following positions:

“L=” Equalizing on the left channel

“>o<” Equalizing both channels simultaneously

“R=” Equalizing on the right channel

When the cursor highlights this screen, you can now apply boost or cut, using the + and - controls, to the frequency you selected in the previous step.

Once you have made your equalization settings, you will want to tap the Select button, go to the Memories screen, and save your settings in one of the eight memory locations.
