MID MODULE

The

MID

module controls three frequency bands: low, mid and high, allowing to add and control

colors to the richer part of the harmonic spectrum.

MID ENABLE

- Turns the

MID

module on/o

ﬀ

. Not being a true bypass control, the

MID

module still

adds some color to the processed sound even when set to o

ﬀ

. A whole true bypass can be ob-

tained by the red button on the left side of the Gem toolbar.

MID LEVEL

- Adjusts the level of the

MID

module processed sound. Range is ±12 dB.

LOW PEAK (FREQ+BOOST)

- Adjusts the low band of the EQ. Frequency selector ranges from 200 Hz to

1 kHz. The

BOOST

control adds up to 12 dB to the selected frequency.

DIP (FREQ+ATTEN)

- Adjusts the mid band of the EQ. Frequency selector ranges from 200 Hz to 7

kHz. The

ATTEN

control subtracts up to 12 dB to the selected frequency.

HIGH PEAK (FREQ+BOOST)

- Adjusts the high band of the EQ. Frequency selector ranges from 1.5 to 5

kHz. The

BOOST

control adds up to 12 dB to the selected frequency.

EQP MODULE

The

EQP

module is where the heart of the original EQ unit resides. The module includes four re-

gions. First comes the power and level controls, then the low frequency controls, then the high
frequency controls and

nally the cuto

ﬀ

controls.

EQP ENABLE

- Turns the

EQP

module on/o

ﬀ

EQP LEVEL

- Adjusts the level of the

EQP

module processed sound. Range is ±12 dB.

LOW FREQUENCY

- Selects the frequency of the low band. Available values are 20, 30, 60 and 100

(the “CPS” label stands for “cycles per second” also known as Hz).

BOOST

and

ATTEN

controls apply

to the selected frequency.

HIGH FREQUENCY

- Selects the frequency of the high band. Available values are 3, 4, 5, 8, 10, 12 and

16 (the “KCS” label stands for “kilo cycles per second” also known as kHz).

BOOST

and

BANDWIDTH

controls apply to the selected frequency. The attenuation controls work together.

ATTEN SEL

se-

lects the frequency: 5, 10 or 20 kHz.

ATTEN

adjusts the amount of attenuation for the selected fre-

quency.
