Parametric EQ (PEQ) Setup
The Suite 7.1 HD features a multi-band para-
metric equalizer (PEQ) that provides you with
tools to dramatically correct acoustical imperfec-
tions. Typically, best results are achieved using
acoustical measurement systems. The PEQ is
a separate PC program to the Suite 7.1 HD PC
program. ADA suggests running one or the other
but not both at the same time for optimal results.
You can also set and adjust the PEQ from the
front of the Suite 7.1 HD.
Each of the seven main channels features a
12-band equalizer. Each band allows you to set
a center frequency point, Q level and +/- gain
level per speaker channel. You can also have
all seven main channels track each other. The
subwoofer channel features an 8-band equalizer
with independent center frequency, Q and level
per band.
There are four PEQ presets that store all pa-
rameters. You can also reset center frequency,
Q and levels individually with the touch of one
button. Lastly, the PEQ can be turned on and
off permitting you to A/B your results. Like other
Suite 7.1 HD setup features, you can store your
PEQ settings to a le on your PC.
To set and adjust the PEQ from the front panel of
the Suite 7.1 HD, while in the Setup Mode navi-
gate the cursor to the EQ using the Mode knob
and press the knob. The cursor will ash on the
arrow next to the letter N.
Turning the Mode knob scrolls you through op-
tions on this page including Channel selection and
All Channels (7), Storing Presets and Recalling
Presets, as well as Reseting Q, Levels (Flat) and
Frequency points. Turning the Input knob while
on a specic feature cycles through options.
With the cursor on the arrow next to the letter N,
turning the Input knob cycles you through indi-
vidual channels and the bands of the PEQ (three
bands at a time).
While on a screen, turning the Mode knob moves
the cursor through the options on any one specic
screen permitting you to adjust Gain Level, Center
Frequency, and Q for that channel. To adjust the
next three bands, position the cursor on the arrow
next to N and turn the Input knob.
