MID MODULE
The
MID
module controls three frequency bands: low, mid and high, allowing to add and control
colors to the richer part of the harmonic spectrum.
MID ENABLE
- Turns the
MID
module on/o
ff
. Not being a true bypass control, the
MID
module still
adds some color to the processed sound even when set to o
ff
. A whole true bypass can be ob-
tained by the red button on the left side of the Gem toolbar.
MID LEVEL
- Adjusts the level of the
MID
module processed sound. Range is ±12 dB.
LOW PEAK (FREQ+BOOST)
- Adjusts the low band of the EQ. Frequency selector ranges from 200 Hz to
1 kHz. The
BOOST
control adds up to 12 dB to the selected frequency.
DIP (FREQ+ATTEN)
- Adjusts the mid band of the EQ. Frequency selector ranges from 200 Hz to 7
kHz. The
ATTEN
control subtracts up to 12 dB to the selected frequency.
HIGH PEAK (FREQ+BOOST)
- Adjusts the high band of the EQ. Frequency selector ranges from 1.5 to 5
kHz. The
BOOST
control adds up to 12 dB to the selected frequency.
EQP MODULE
The
EQP
module is where the heart of the original EQ unit resides. The module includes four re-
gions. First comes the power and level controls, then the low frequency controls, then the high
frequency controls and
fi
nally the cuto
ff
controls.
EQP ENABLE
- Turns the
EQP
module on/o
ff
.
EQP LEVEL
- Adjusts the level of the
EQP
module processed sound. Range is ±12 dB.
LOW FREQUENCY
- Selects the frequency of the low band. Available values are 20, 30, 60 and 100
(the “CPS” label stands for “cycles per second” also known as Hz).
BOOST
and
ATTEN
controls apply
to the selected frequency.
HIGH FREQUENCY
- Selects the frequency of the high band. Available values are 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12 and
16 (the “KCS” label stands for “kilo cycles per second” also known as kHz).
BOOST
and
BANDWIDTH
controls apply to the selected frequency. The attenuation controls work together.
ATTEN SEL
se-
lects the frequency: 5, 10 or 20 kHz.
ATTEN
adjusts the amount of attenuation for the selected fre-
quency.
