Or, if you prefer the old-school
approach to variable bandwidth, we’ve
included 10-band parametrics that can be
fine-tuned in increments down to 1/60 of
an octave.
Dynamically-activated EQ
Dynamic EQ automatically raises or
lowers a defined frequency range based
on volume level. It’s literally a
combination of an equalizer (with
frequency center and bandwidth controls)
and a dynamics processor (with ATTACK,
RELEASE, THRESHOLD and RATIO
parameters).
DEQ opens up a world of both creative
mastering and PA problem solving
possibilities. We’ve given you total control
with multiple filter types including
bandpass mode. And of course you can
store DEQ settings for recall at any time
manually or via MIDI.
Feedback Destroyer with
Learning Mode
With the digital capabilities we’ve just
listed, it’s easy to see why we were able
to include a highly-effective Feedback
Destroyer (FBD) feature — it’s essentially a
dynamically-activated parametric EQ that
“watches” the whole frequency spectrum
in 1/60-octave bands and then instantly
identifies and notches out feedback.
FBD can be run in AUTO mode
to compensate for movements of
performers on stage, or in SNGLE mode
that locks onto individual frequencies and
then varies the amount of attenuation
and bandwidth depending on feedback
stimulus — more suited to fixed
microphone installations.
We also included a LEARN mode that
generates short audio pulses, raises their
gain until feedback occurs and then
locks into potential trouble-causing
band centers.
Stereo Imager (WIDTH).
While usually considered a mastering
technique, the ability to widen the stereo
image can be useful in live sound work,
too. When you hear it in action, we think
you and your audience will be impressed.
