The graphic window above sliders plots the frequency response for the whole GEQ block and for a single
equalizer cell (the thin plotted line visualized selecting a gain slider). In the graphic window you can also
check the phase response of the whole GEQ or the phase response of a single equalizer cell, according with
the visualization options selected on the top of the window.
Right-Clicking with mouse on the slider area of the GEQ page you can open a contextual menu that gives you
the possibility of storing/recalling a GEQ processor preset to/from a file, or gives you the possibility of
copying/loading the preset to/from the computer clipboard. In this way you can easily store your favorite
settings or you can exchange in a faster way the GEQ settings between two input channels or between two
devices.
Fig.51Managing GEQ's presets.
When Input A and Input B channels are ganged (see “Working with devices” and “Setup panels”) only a GEQ
page labeled GEQ A+B will be visualized, a parameter change will reflect on both GEQ blocks.
Equalizer type
This parameter selects the response type of the equalizer cells. Selecting from the drop-down menu the type
of GEQ, the shape or “Q” of the single cells will change and so will change also the response shown.
The “EZCurve” type is based on the Proel’s EZCurve analog Graphic Equalizer’s response. It has a “Q” that
varies with cut/boost applied – wider ‘Q’ at lower values of cut/boost, resulting in a smoother response
when smaller amounts of EQ are added.
The “Type1” response has a fixed “Q”, giving more precise control and offers the flattest response when
boosting groups of adjacent faders.
The “Type2” response has a fixed “Q” too, like Type1, but it has a different reference and a lower value of the
“Q” shape: this gives a different response from Type1 equalization.
Try swapping between these types, see and listen the result!
Gain slider
Controls the gain of each equalizer cell. The amount of gain for each band is visualized below each slider.
Flat
Reset the gain control of all bands to 0dB.
On
Enable or disable the whole GEQ processing block.
