Stereo + EQ Page
On the Stereo + EQ page, you can shape the tone of the sound. From left to right, the controls are as
follows:
Stereo
Width: sets the stereo image of the instrument. This dial moves in 10% increments. At 0%, you hear the
natural stereo recording of the Mbira. Values below 0% narrow the stereo image, becoming mono at
-100%. Values between 10% and 100% introduce a stereo widening effect.
 If you use a width value between 10 and 100%, be sure to check your mix in mono, because
stereo widening can sound different when mixed to mono.
EQ
Lo Gain: sets the volume of low frequencies, between +/-6 decibels.
Mid Gain: sets the volume of mid frequencies, between +/-6 decibels.
Mid Freq: sets the centre of the frequencies controlled by the Mid Gain dial.
Hi Gain: sets the volume of high frequencies, between +/-6 decibels.
 The Lo and Hi EQ frequencies have been pre-tweaked by Precisionsound to suit the instrument.
