SAMPLE SETTINGS
M108
10 BAND GRAPHIC EQ
DESCRIPTION
• 12dB of serious cut or boost
• Hardwire bypass
• Input Gain and Output
Volume sliders
• Gain and Volume slider LEDs
blink to indicate signal clipping
• Illuminated sliders for
onstage carving
• Glow-in-the-dark graphics
• 18-volt operation for twice the
headroom of most EQ pedals
POWER
The MXR M-108 Ten Band EQ
requires an ECB-004 18-volt power
supply (included), or a DC Brick™
series power supply.
CONTROLS
VOLUME controls overall
effect volume (inactive in
bypass mode)
EQ SLIDERS adjust frequencies
to shape overall tone
GAIN controls overall amount
of distortion
FOOTSWITCH toggles effect
on/bypass (illuminated RED
sliders indicate on)
DIRECTIONS
• To get a feel for how each EQ
slider affects your signal, place
all sliders at their 0dB (detent)
position.
• Then, while playing, push each
frequency slider to full cut, then
boost, and then back to 0dB to
hear the effect each frequency
has on your tone. The adjustment
range of +/-12dB provides
approximately four times the
output level at the selected
frequency (or, conversely, four
times the reduction). Also, the
Gain slider provides a 12dB cut
or boost before the EQ circuitry
and the Volume slider provides
a 12dB cut or boost after the
EQ circuitry. This gives you a
tremendous amount of control
over not just the shape of your

tone, but also the level of that
tone. The Gain and Volume slider
LEDs will blink if the signal level
before or after the EQ circuitry is
close to clipping.
• To achieve the best signal to
noise conditions through the
MXR Ten Band EQ, set the Gain
to its highest setting without
clipping and the Volume at
the desired output signal level
(without clipping).
• Depressing the footswitch toggles
the EQ in and out of bypass.
When the EQ is active,
all frequency sliders will have
their red LEDs illuminated.
