FREQ. Hz: There are a choice of six frequencies: 20, 30, 50, 70, 100, 160 Hz.
(The frequency is 3dB from max./min.)
(Boost/cut)
Determines whether the gain control shall be boosting or cutting.
MIDBAND:
GAIN: The gain control is continuously variable from 0 dB to 20 dB.
FREQ. Hz: There is a choice of twelve frequencies:
40, 60, 80, 130, 250, 500, 1k, 1,6k, 2,5k, 4k, 7k, 10k.
BW: The bandwidth control is continuously variable from sharp to broad.
(Boost/cut)
Determines whether the gain control shall be boosting or cutting.
HIGH SHELF:
GAIN: The gain control is continuously variable from 0 dB to 15 dB.
FREQ. kHz: There is a choice of six frequencies: 4, 6, 8, 12, 18, and 26
(The frequency is 3dB from max. /min.)
(Boost/cut)
Determines whether the gain control shall be boosting or cutting.
EQ in/out: Switches the frequency network in and out.
COMPRESSOR CONTROLS:
RATIO: The ratio control varies the ratio by which the input signal is compressed.
If the ratio selected is to 2:1, and the input signal increases 10 dB, the output
signal is only increased by 5 dB.
The ratio control is continuously variable from 1,5:1 to 10:1.
THRESHOLD:
The threshold is the point where the compressor begins its action. It is
defined as the point where the gain is reduced by 1 dB.
The threshold is continuously variable from off to -20 dBm.
COMP in/out: This switch defeats the compressor side chain circuit
ATTACK: The attack control chooses how fast/slow the compressor responds to an
increase in the input signal.
The attack control is continuously variable from 1 to 100 milliseconds.
