Changing Various Settings
The RG-1 features a built-in, four-band digital equalizer.
You can also save up to four sets of equalization settings,
each one containing the settings you’ve chosen for achieving
a desired tonal quality.
An equalizer boosts or cuts specific sound pitches (frequency
ranges) to adjust the sound balance.
For example, you can boost the highs to get a crisper sound,
or boost the low end for a more powerful sound.
You can also adjust the sound to compensate for the
acoustical characteristics of the performance space.
If raising the values for separate frequencies causes the
sound to distort, you can use the “Master Gain” (see below)
to control such distortion.
→ You can use the Memory Backup function to store these
settings to the RG-1 (p. 71).
1. Press the [Function] (Exit) button, getting its

Parameter Value Description
Low Gain -12–+12 dB
Adjusts the level of the low-
frequency range.
Low Freq
100–1.0 k
(Hz)
Frequency point in the low-
frequency range.
Generally, this changes the
level at and below this fre-
quency.
Lo Mid Gain -12–+12 dB
Adjusts the level of the low-
frequency range to midrange.
Lo Mid Freq
16 –16.0 k
(Hz)
Frequency point in the low-
frequency range to midrange.
This changes the level of the
specified bandwidth centered
on this frequency.
Lo Mid Q
0.5, 1.0, 2.0,
4.0, 8.0
Changes the bandwidth of the
low-frequency range to
midrange.
The bandwidth affected by the
controls narrows as the value
increases.
Hi Mid Gain -12–+12 dB
Adjusts the level of the mid to
high-frequency range.
Hi Mid Freq
16 –16.0 k
(Hz)
Frequency point in the mid to
high-frequency range to
midrange.
This changes the level of the
specified bandwidth centered
on this frequency.
Hi Mid Q
0.5, 1.0, 2.0,
4.0, 8.0
Changes the bandwidth of the
mid to high-frequency range.
The bandwidth affected by the
controls narrows as the value
increases.
Hi Gain -12–+12 dB
Adjusts the level of the high-
frequency range.
Hi Freq
1.25 k–16.0 k
(Hz)
Frequency point in the high-
frequency range.
Generally, this changes the
level at and over this frequen-
cy.
Master Gain -12–+12 dB
You can temper the distortion
in the sound by lowering the
level.
Raising the level too much
may cause the sound to be-
come distorted.
