If the low frequencies are boosted by the room, you can attenuate them

with the Low-Shelf Filter. The reasons for this boost could be the room

modes or the loudspeakers being too close to the walls. In the same way,

if the low frequencies are to weak, you can boost them to balance the

frequency response.

The High-Shelf Filter allows you to boost or attenuate frequencies above

3  kHz in 0.5dB steps. High frequencies are affected depending on the

distance from the sound source to the listening position. The further you

are from the loudspeakers, the weaker the high frequencies. In such cases

the filter should be set to boost them. In desktop applications, distances

can be as short as 1 m (3 ft), which results in the high frequencies being

boosted. To compensate for this effect you should use the High-Shelf Filter

to attenuate the high frequencies.
If you have a very dead room, it might be wise to boost the high frequencies

in order to have a more balanced overall sound. When the listening position

is too close to the loudspeakers or the room has reflective surfaces, it is

reasonable to attenuate the high frequencies.

The Desk Filter has two functions. When turned down it acts as a narrow-

band EQ set to 170 Hz (SC207) or 160 Hz (SC208).
The reflections of mixers and similar surfaces usually result in the boosting

of low mids. With the Desk Filter you can lessen this effect by turning down

the filter gain.
When turned up, the Desk Filter also works as an EQ but this time set to 80
