TTING STARTED WITH TWEEQ

Page 3

Open TWEEQ from Program Manager by double click-
ing on the TWEEQ icon. The screen which will appear
is described on page 2 of this manual.

MOVING A SLUG

Use the mouse to position the cursor inside one of the
filter bands, then press and hold the mouse button. The
“slug” should move to the cursor position.
Continue to
depress the mouse button while moving the cursor up
and down within the filter band to drag the “slug”
along with the cursor. This action is analogous to sliding
the filter controls on a conventional graphic equalizer.
Re-
lease the mouse button. Move the cursor to the Gain
Band then press and hold the mouse button. The “slug”
should again move to the cursor position.
Drag the cursor
up and down the Gain Band and watch the “slug” fol-
low.

Once you have captured a “slug,” if you continue to
press the mouse button you can move the cursor any-
where within the Filter Bands or Gain Band areas with-
out losing control of the captured slug. This allows
you to capture a slug and then move the cursor to the
dB scale located on each side of the filter Bands for
precise positioning of the slug.

SETTING HIGH- OR LOW-PASS FILTERS

Position cursor on either box, then press the mouse
button. A dialog box will open displaying other filter choices.
Click on the desired frequency. Then click on OK. The
frequency you have selected will appear in the rectangular
Filter box.

tus of the function as follows:
