Selected EQ Section

An equalizer (EQ) enables you to boost or cut specific frequency ranges to “shape” a sound.

The VM200 features a four-band parametric equalizer for each input channel. Each band features rotary controls for Gain, Frequency, and Q.

The LO-MID and HI-MID bands use parametric EQ. The LO band can function as an HPF, shelving, or parametric EQ; the HI band can function as an LPF, shelving, or parametric EQ.

The Selected EQ section features three keys: an [EQ ON] key, and [STORE] and [RECALL] keys for the EQ Library.

For more information on using the EQ, see EQ on page 75.
