6.8 Equalizer
Bands 1-3 Peaking lters Peaking EQ lters boost or lower a frequency range centered at the center frequency chosen. Graphic equalizers in home stereos are usually peaking lters. The peaking lters in Rockbox’s EQ lets you adjust three dierent parameters for EQ bands 1 through 3. The \center parameter controls the center frequency of the frequency range that is aected as described above. The \gain parameter controls how much each band is adjusted, and works as for the low shelf lter. Finally, the \Q parameter controls how wide or narrow the aected frequency range is. Higher Q values will aect a narrower band of frequencies, while lower Q values will aect a wider band of frequencies

When you play Sudoku on paper most people like to mark numbers in cells that are possible candidates for the cells. This can be done with the scratchpad, shown as separate column. Change the number under the cursor to the number you want to put on the scratchpad and press the scratchpad button, the number will then be added. If the number was already on the scratchpad it will get removed again. The column is stored seperatly for every cell on the board. The stored values can be displayed inline as small
