A/B Comparison
On the lower left of the panel, directly above the ENGAGE button is the A/B button. This is one of the most
important and unique features of the Bettermaker EQ232P. It allows you to switch between two totally different
(or subtly different) settings instantly. Similar to the action of digital plug-ins, this feature allows you to make
quick mixing or mastering decisions, by hearing the difference between two full settings without taking the time
to manually change all the knobs needed and potentially losing perspective. When this button is unlit, it is in the
A state. When the button is lit, it is in the B state. You do not need to save anything to change between each A/B
state. Simply make a tweak to any knob or setting on the EQ, and push the A/B button to jump back and forth
between your new settings and the prior settings.
When recalling presets (see Part V, Software ), the preset is recalled to both A and B states in order to start
fresh.
Clip Indicators
Two red LEDs illuminate if the headroom has been exceeded. This can occur by driving a signal too hard into
the EQ, or by applying too much boost in any of the bands. Clip detectors are located at the output of the input
stage and each filter stage. If clipping does occur, lower the input level feeding into the unit until the LEDs stop
blinking. See Part II, Aligning Levels , for further information.
High Pass Filter
The High Pass Filter is located on the lower left of the panel. The HPF knob selects the corner frequency of the
12 dB-per-octave high pass filter. The range is from 18 Hz to 200 Hz. All signals above the selected frequency are
passed along to the next filter section and onto the outputs. This is the first filter that the signal passes through.
