Equalizer601

This emulates the characteristics of an analog equal-

izer of the 1970s. By reproducing the distortion that

is typical of analog circuits, it adds drive to the

sound.

OpenDeck

This emulates the tape compression produced by

two open-reel tape recorders (a recording deck and a

reproduction deck). You can change the tonal char-

acter by adjusting various elements, such as the deck

type, tape quality, and playback speed.

Parameter Range Description
TYPE DRIVE, CLEAN Switches the equalizer type
INPUT –18.0 to +18.0 dB Adjusts the input gain
OUTPUT –18.0 to +18.0 dB Adjusts the output gain
Level
meter
This shows the effect’s input
level or output level. Use the
METER: [IN][OUT] switches to
choose which level is shown
Q/TYPE
LO: LSH-1, LSH-2,
HPF-1, HPF-2
MID1–4:
0.50–16.00
HI: LPF-1, LPF-2,
HSH-1, HSH-2
These parameters control the
shape of the frequency response
curve for each filter band.
For the MID 1–4 bands you can
specify the sharpness (Q) of the
frequency response curve.
For the LO and HI bands, you
can select one of four filter types
F
fs=44.1/48 kHz:
16.0–20.0 kHz,
fs=88.2/96 kHz:
16.0 Hz–40.0 kHz
(HI TYPE=HSH-1 or
HSH-2: HI Band=
1.0–40 kHz)
These specify the center fre-
quency of the filter
G–18.0 to +18.0 dB These specify the gain of the fil-
ter
SW ON, OFF These switch each filter band
on/off

Parameter Range Description
REC DEC Swss70, Swss78,
Swss85, Amer70
Selects the type of recording
deck
REC LVL –96.0 to +18.0dB
Adjusts the input level of the
recording deck. As you raise the
level, tape compression is gener-
ated, narrowing the dynamic
range and distorting the sound
REC HI –6.0 to +6.0dB Adjusts the high range gain of
the recording deck
REC BIAS –1.00 to +1.00 Adjusts the bias of the recording
deck
MAKEUP ON, OFF
If this is on, operating the
recording deck’s level
([RECORD]/[REC LVL] knob) will
cause the reproduction deck’s
level ([REPRODUCE]/[REPR LVL]
knob) to move in tandem, main-
taining a fixed output level This
allows you to change the
amount of distortion without
changing the output level
REPR
DECK
Swss70, Swss78,
Swss85, Amer70
Selects the type of reproduction
deck
REPR LVL –96.0 to +18.0 dB Adjusts the output level of the
reproduction deck
REPR HI –6.0 to +6.0 dB Adjusts the high range gain of
the reproduction deck
REPR LO –6.0 to +6.0 dB Adjusts the low range gain of the
reproduction deck
TP SPEED 15 ips, 30 ips Selects the tape speed
TP KIND New, Old Selects the type of tape
