Master Equalizer Settings
Usually an equalizer is used to correct the sound output from amps or speakers to match the special character of the
room. The sound is divided into several frequency bands, allowing you to correct the sound by raising or lowering
the level for each band. The equalizer allows you to adjust the tone or timbre of the sound to match the performance
space, or to compensate for certain acoustic characteristics in your room. For example, you can cut some of the low
range frequencies when playing in large spaces where the sound is too “boomy,” or boost the high frequencies in
rooms and close spaces where the sound is relatively “dead” and free of echoes.
The 9000Pro possesses a high grade five-band digital equalizer function. With this function, a final effect—tone con-
trol—can be added to the output of your instrument.

An edited PRESET or USER

Adjusts the overall gain of all EQ
bands simultaneously.
The PRESET and USER curves can be edited as required
via the corresponding LCD buttons — EQ1 through EQ5.
Each of the 5 bands can be boosted (“+” values) or cut (“–”
values) by up to 12 dB.
Whenever an EQ band is edited the corresponding EQ value is high-
lighted and the number of the edited band appears above the Q and
FREQ controls. The Q and FREQ controls can then be used to adjust
the Q (bandwidth) and the FREQ (center frequency) of the selected
band. The higher the “Q”, the narrower the bandwidth. The available
FREQ range is different for each band.
