3-Band Parametric Equalizer. Total tonal control is what the Equalizer
section provides. The EQ will let you fine tune the sound to suit your taste
with exacting precision.
• Bypass Switch. A bypass switch is provided to audition the signal in
an equalized version as compared to a direct unaffected signal.
• Variable Q. Adjusts the width of the frequency band between wide and
narrow during equalization.
• EQ►COMP. Switches the order of the signal chain putting EQ before
the Compressor.
Master Section
• Gain Reduction to Meter. Shows gain reduction on the meter
implemented by the compressor.
• Level. The output of the EUREKA is adjusted by the Level control and
is useful for compensating for gain loss due to compression or to
decrease output signal that boosting frequencies with the Equalizer
section may have caused. The output is variable from –80 dB to +10
dB.
• VU Meter. The VU meter provides an accurate reading of the output
level and a reference of signal presence. It can also be switched to
monitor gain reduction when using the compressor.
