Recalling equalizer curves

There are six stored equalizer curves which you can easily recall at any time. Here is a list of the equalizer curves:

!CUSTOM is an adjusted equalizer curve that you create. If you make adjustments to an equalizer curve, the equalizer curve set- ting will be memorized in CUSTOM.
