The z-Q6 can not display the filter parameters for all channels at once, so it uses a "paging" mode
where the EQ parameters are displayed and controlled one channel group at a time. To change
the active channel group, press the channel select button once. The display will appear as in
Figure 3. Choose which channel group you wish to control by pressing the button below the
appropriate display. The z-Q6 will then jump back to EQ mode, with the selected channel group
as the new active channel.
