M-AUDIO EQMan - Manual (Page 26)

26
SYMPTOM: Audio is present but distorted.
SOLUTION: Make sure the input signals are not too hot for the
EQMan. Make sure the output volume setting of the EQMan is not too
loud for whatever it’s driving. Make sure the source material is not
distorted itself.
SYMPTOM: The EQ seems erratic and confused when changing
presets.
SOLUTION: Hardware Speed may need adjusting in the Windows
Driver. Do so from the Advanced Setup in the Windows Driver.
SYMPTOM: Can not locate files for loading from a previously
performed “ File, Save”.
SOLUTION: Files are being saved into the wrong subdirec-tory. When
in the File Save or File Open dialog boxes, be sure to select the proper
subdirectory before saving/opening a file.
SYMPTOM: The EQ is working OK except the output levels seem
low even with faders in the full up position.
SOLUTION: Outputs from the EQ may be “loaded down” by speakers
or a mismatched input level amplifier. The outputs from the EQ are
designed for Line level (-10dB) outputs and require a pre amplifier. Try
the Aux In of your stereo or a mixer with -10dB High Z inputs.
SOLUTION: Inputs to the EQ are too Low. The inputs to the EQ are
designed for Line level (-10dB) inputs and require a pre amplifier. Try
using the Effects Send output from your guitar amplifier or mixing
board.
SYMPTOM: MIDI Control Change and other MIDI commands fail
to change the individual EQ bands.
SOLUTION: Verify that these MIDI commands are being written to the
proper MIDI Channel. The EQMan MIDI channel is set in the driver
Advanced Setup dialog box. Also check to see that the controls you are
sending data to match the ones set up in the Advanced Setup as well.
