EQ The
EQ
module houses the selected Channel
Strip’s controls for all three bands of equalization.
The faders mirror the Virtual Channel’s EQ pots.
BYPASS Press this key to turn the EQ module on and
off for the selected channel.
LIBRARY
Use this key to display the EQ Library. For
example, if the
LIBRARY
window currently shows the
Dynamics Library, pressing this key will override
that display and recall the EQ Library instead.
HIGH, MID, & LOW dB These faders provide gain
(±15 dB) control for their respective EQ bands.
HIGH, MID, & LOW Hz These faders control the
center frequency of the EQ bell (20Hz to 20kHz).
HIGH, MID, & LOW Q These faders control the
width of the EQ bell curve (these values are
expressed in semitones here, although the LCD
CHANNEL
screen also provides the traditional Q value).
They are only active with the Parametric and Notch
EQ curves.
BYP These keys bypass their associated EQ band
(not the entire EQ module).
Curve Key For each EQ band, you have a choice of
Parametric, Notch, Low Pass, High Pass, Low Shelf,
and High Shelf curves. Click on the keys immedi-
ately below each
BYP
key to select from a menu of
these curves.
DYNAMICS The
DYNAMICS
module houses the
dynamics controls for the selected channel. Several
of these controls mirror the LCD
MIXER CHANNEL
screen for the
AUX DYN
settings.
There are three different types of dynamics proces-
sors available to each mixer channel (all 40 inputs).
These are: Compressor, Expander, and Gate (all of
which are pictured here). One of these processors can
be used at a time, per channel. Click on the key
where the dynamics processor’s name appears (either
COMP
,
EXP
, or
GATE
) to select the processor you want to
use.
