Likewise, if the lowest gain setting of any band in this same Edit

Group is -4 dB, then the largest number you will see in the Relative

Gain display going all the way up is 16 (see fig. 5).

So if you run the Relative Gain display up and down repeatedly

with this Edit Group, the display will hit the "ceiling" at 16 and

bottom out at 18.

The Release Edit Group function

Once you have changed the value of the Edit Group, the DEQ230

will react one of two ways to further presses of the [BAND

SELECT] buttons. To decide which option suits your working

method or circumstance, experiment with the setting for the

Release Edit Group function in Setup Mode.

If this function is on, the very next [BAND SELECT] button

you press after you have changed the level of the Edit Group will

"release" all of the previously selected bands. The only band that

will be selected is the one you just pressed. You will know this

when it happens, because that's the only Band Gain LED that will

be blinking.

If the Release Edit Group function is off, the next [BAND

SELECT] button you press after you have changed the level of

the Edit Group will simply add that band to the Edit Group.

For a more detailed explanation of the Release Edit Group

function, see pages 44 and 45.

Remember, if you want to
keep the edited program,
be sure to store it to one of
the User locations. For
instructions on how to do
this, turn to page 38.
