Headphone Output
The C•que 8’s Headphone Output jack accepts a standard 1/4” TRS connector for easy interface with
most professional headphones. Once the master VOLUME has been set, the channels output level
is set by the VOLUME knob.
EQ Shape
Each of the four C•que 8 channels features an EQ
SHAPE switch allowing individual equalization con-
tour for each channel. When the EQ SHAPE switch is
in, the LED will illuminate indicating the EQ SHAPE
circuit is engaged. The EQ SHAPE circuit provides a
pre-set equalization curve designed to sound good on
most program music. In this mode, the low frequen-
cies have a 6dB boost at 100Hz and the high frequen-
cy are boosted 6dB at 12kHz. When the EQ SHAPE
switch is in the out position, frequency response of
the channel is flat.
VOLUME Control
The channel VOLUME control is used to adjust the channel headphone output. The volume control
will adjust the level of the front panel headphone outputs, as well as that channel’s rear panel head-
phone outputs.
CHANNEL LEVEL Meter
Each C•que 8 Channel has an 6 segment, LEDlevel meter which monitors the output of the channel in
Decibels (dBs) –24 toOL (overload). If the LEVEL meter displays an OL signal, then turn down the
channel VOLUME, and if necessary, also turn down the master VOLUME .
