Using the Selected Channel section
Here’s how you can use the SELECTED CHANNEL sec-
tion to edit the EQ (equalizer) and HPF (High Pass Filter).
EQ can be used on all input channels and all output chan-
nels. An HPF that is independent of the EQ is provided
only for input channels. However even on output chan-
nels, you can switch the LOW band type to HPF.
1 Press a [SEL] key to select the channel you
want to control.
Four-band EQ (HIGH, HIGH MID, LOW MID,
LOW) is provided on all input channels and on
MATRIX channels.
Eight-band EQ is provided on MIX channels and STE-
REO A/B channels. (Control is divided into UPPER
and LOWER sections of four bands each.)
2 In the SELECTED
CHANNEL section,
make sure that the
EQ [ON] key is on.
If you selected a MIX
channel or STEREO A/
B channel in step 1,
use the SELECTED
CHANNEL section EQ
[UPPER] key or EQ
[LOWER] key to select the UPPER or LOWER group
of four bands.
3 For each band, use the EQ [Q] encoder, EQ
[FREQUENCY] encoder, and [GAIN] encoder to
edit the steepness, center frequency, and gain
respectively.
Hint
If the input signal of an input channel clips because of EQ
boost, make the SELECTED CHANNEL section [GAIN/ATT]
key go dark and use the [GAIN/ATT] encoder to lower the
level.
4 If you want to restore the EQ of the currently
operated channel to a flat state, simulta-
neously hold down the EQ [UPPER] and EQ
[LOWER] keys of the SELECTED CHANNEL
section.
When you hold down these two keys simultaneously,
the boost/cut amount of all bands will be reset to 0 dB.
5 If you want to use the HIGH band or LOW
band as a shelving-type EQ, turn on the [
]
key or [ ] key for the corresponding band.
6 If you want to use HPF on an input channel,
turn on the HPF [ON] key in the SELECTED
CHANNEL section.
Input channels provide an HPF that is independent of
the four-band EQ. Use the HPF [ON] key to switch the
HPF on/off, and use the HPF [FREQUENCY] encoder
to specify the cutoff frequency.
Hint
• Output channels do not provide an HPF that is independent
of the EQ, but you can switch the LOW band type to HPF, or
the HIGH band type to LPF. This change is made in the
OUTPUT EQ function EQ PARAM screen (
➥ p.250).
• For input channels you can switch the HIGH band type to
LPF. This change is made in the INPUT ø/EQ function EQ
PARAM screen (
➥ p.286).
Hint
• You can cause the associated screen to appear automati-
cally when you operate equalizer or HPF parameters in the
SELECTED CHANNEL section. This setting is made in the
UTILITY function PREFERENCE 1 screen (
➥ p.204).
• In the same way as for compressor or noise gate settings,
EQ settings can also be stored to or recalled from a dedi-
cated EQ library. Preset library items suitable for a variety of
instruments or situations are also provided.
