As described in steps 1–3 of “Mounting a
GEQ or effect in the virtual rack” (

A rack in which a 31 Band GEQ is mounted will show
the approximate settings.

to the rack in which you mounted the GEQ
and press the [ENTER] key.

The RACK screen will appear, allowing you to edit the
parameters of the GEQ.
You can also access the RACK screen by pressing the
[RACK 1-4] key or [RACK 5-8] key. By repeatedly
pressing the [RACK 1-4] key you can access the
RACK 1–4 screens, and by repeatedly pressing the
[RACK 5-8] key you can access the RACK 5–8
screens and EXTERNAL HA screen.
