Setting the Bandwidth
The L-MID and H-MID bands are peaking type EQs. The LOW and HIGH
bands are initially configured as shelving type EQs, however, they can also
be configured as peaking type EQs. The LOW band can also be configured
as a HPF (high-pass filter) and the HIGH band as a LPF (low-pass filter).
1. Select the bandwidth (Q) icon for the LOW band using the
CURSOR buttons.
2. Use the encoder wheel to sweep through the bandwidth.
Alternatively, you could use the EQUALIZER Q control.
The LOW band changes from low-shelving to peaking to high-pass filter as
you continue to rotate the encoder wheel.
3. As you rotate the encoder wheel counterclockwise, it effectively
increases the Q—narrowing the bandwidth, as shown on the EQ
graph.
A narrow curve is useful for boosting or cutting specific frequencies.
4. Use the CURSOR buttons to select the bandwidth (Q) icon for the
L-MID band and adjust its position with the encoder wheel. Select
and adjust the bandwidth of the other bands.
You can also select the different bands using the [LOW/HPF], [L-MID],
[H-MID], and [HIGH/LPF] buttons of the SELECTED
CHANNEL—EQUALIZER controls. Adjust the EQUALIZER Q control for
each band.
The HIGH band changes from high-shelving to peaking to low-pass filter
as you adjust its value.
