1.0 INTRODUCTION

The EQX20 is a two channel 3 band Parametric Equaliser which can also
be configured as a single channel 6 band unit. Each band offers variable
Frequency, 15dB cut and boost and variable Q (Bandwidth).
Having all parameters fully variable makes the EQX20 a powerful tool
capable of a range of effects from subtle fine tuning through to radical tonal
changes.
Each channel has a high pass filter switch intended to remove subsonics
such as stage noise and tightening bass sounds.
The facilities provided by the EQX20 are summarised as follows -
2 Channel 3 band or single channel 6 band parametric EQ
Wide frequency sweep (40:1) on each band
Q variable between 12 (1/12th octave = 1 semitone) to 0.3 (3 octaves)
±15dB gain on each band
High pass filter on each channel
Bypass switching on each channel
Balanced inputs on XLR and TRS jack
Balanced impedance, ground compensated outputs on XLR and TRS
jack
+4dBu and -10dBV input and output levels
Low noise and distortion
Typical applications for the EQX20 include -
Audio sweetening
Precision equalisation
Feedback elimination
Hum, subsonic and noise removal
Making a compressor frequency conscious
Special effects
Enhancing the EQ on a mixing console
