Output EQ Type parameter as shown in the following figure.

The center frequencies of a graphic equalizer are specified in the ISO 266 stan-

dard. These are similar to the standard set of resistor values, but the series is

chosen to map well to fractional octave and decade intervals between center

frequencies. The nominal frequencies are used to label each band in the

equalizer.

Depending on the fractional octave size of the equalizer, a different number of

bands will be needed to cover the audio frequency range. The most common

graphic equalizers (and those implemented in this algorithm) are 1-octave (10

band), 2/3-octave (15 band), and 1/3-octave (31 band).
The nominal and exact center frequencies of these equalizers are shown in the
