Using track-specific compressors and equalizers

Section 2

HIGH GAIN

-20–+20 dB

This parameter sets the gain (amount of boost or cut) for the
high-range equalizer.

HIGH FREQUENCY

800 Hz–16000 Hz

This parameter sets the frequency for the high range equalizer.

HIGH Q

0.5–16.0

This parameter sets the range of change in gain for the
frequency set by “HIGH FREQUENCY.” A larger value results
in a narrower range of change.

This parameter is only valid when “HIGH TYPE” has been set to “PEAK.”

When “MID” is selected

MID GAIN

-20–+20 dB

This parameter sets the gain (amount of boost or cut) for the
midrange equalizer.

MID FREQUENCY

200 Hz–4000 Hz

This parameter sets the central frequency for the midrange equalizer.

MID Q

0.3–16.0

This parameter sets the range of change in gain for the
frequency set by “MID FREQUENCY.” A larger value results in
a narrower range of change.

When “LOW” is selected

LOW TYPE

SHLV, PEAK

Sets the equalizer type for the low range.

SHLV

This selects the shelving type equalization.

PEAK

This selects the peaking type equalization.

LOW GAIN

-20–+20 dB

This parameter sets the gain (amount of boost or cut) for the low
range equalizer.

LOW FREQUENCY

40 Hz–800 kHz

This parameter sets the frequency for the low range equalizer.

LOW Q

0.3–16.0

This parameter sets the range of change in gain for the
frequency set by “LOW FREQUENCY.” A larger value results
in a narrower range of change.

This parameter is only valid when “LOW TYPE” has been set to “PEAK.”

Press [EXIT/NO] several times to return to the top screen.

If you wish to store the modified settings, save the
current song (p. 72).

Switching equalizers between
stereo and mono (Stereo Link)

If you intend to apply an equalizer to a stereo-recorded track,
you will need to align the left and right EQ settings in order
to prevent differences in tone occurring on the left and right
(Stereo Link).

Use the following procedure to turn Stereo Link on and off.

1.

Press [EQ].

The Equalizer screen will appear.

fig.32-03d

2.

Simultaneously press two adjacent track buttons.

Both of these track buttons will light up and Stereo Link
will be turned on for the corresponding tracks.

Stereo Link can be turned on for Tracks 1 and 2, Tracks 3
and 4, Tracks 5 and 6, and Tracks 7 and 8. It will not be
possible to turn Stereo Link on for any other
combination of tracks, such as Tracks 2 and 3. In
addition, it will not be possible to turn on Stereo Link for
non-adjacent tracks.

3.

If you want to turn Stereo Link off, press either one of
the two track buttons that are currently lit.

Stereo Link will be turned off.

The pressed track button will remain on, and the other
track button will turn off.

Whenever Stereo Link is turned on, the parameters for
the equalizers on both of the linked tracks will use the
same values. When one of these parameters is modified,
the same parameter for the adjacent track will be
automatically and simultaneously modified.

4.

If you wish to store the modified settings, save the
current song (p. 72).

Only one set of equalizer settings can be saved per song.

Tracks 9/10 through 15/16 are fixed as stereo tracks,
and therefore, Stereo Link will always be on for the
corresponding equalizers. It will not be possible to
turn Stereo Link off for these tracks.
