EQ Gain Low
For this measurement the center frequency was set to 1.8 kHz and the EQ gain controller was set
to different positions between 0 and full left (-3 dB). The diagram shows the effectiveness of the fil-
ter: The lower frequencies are boosted up to 3 dB, at the center frequency they cross zero, and the
higher frequencies are cut up to 4.5 dB. Depending on the setting of the EQ gain the level might
need some make up with the gain controller.
EQ Gain High
Now let’s have a look at the opposite scenario. In this figure the EQ gain controller was turned
from 0 to full right at a center frequency of 1.1 kHz. Contrary to the previous example, the high
frequencies are now boosted up to 3 dB and the lower frequencies are reduced by up to 5 dB. The
fine-tuned interim values make it possible to apply very subtle sonic changes.
