b. Select a filter type from the Type drop-down menu. By default, all bands are set to the EQ
filter type. Some filter types will disable other settings in their respective band while
enabled. For example, selecting the LowPass filter type for a band will disable that band's
Gain and Bandwidth settings, since the LowPass filter applies a fixed roll-off slope at a set
frequency. The available filter types are:
l
EQ: a fully parametric filter that can boost or cut a range of frequencies.
l
Notch: a parametric filter designed to more precisely cut a frequency or range of
frequencies. A notch filter can achieve a narrower bandwidth than the standard EQ
parametric filter type.
l
TrebleShelf: a filter that boosts or cuts all frequencies above a set frequency by a set
gain.
l
BassShelf: a filter that boosts or cuts all frequencies below a set frequency by a set
gain.
l
LowPass: a filter that fully cuts all frequencies above a set frequency using a fixed
roll-off slope of -12dB per octave.
l
HighPass: a filter that fully cuts all frequencies below a set frequency using a fixed
roll-off slope of -12dB per octave.
c. Set a center frequency for the equalizer band to tune a specific portion of the audible
frequency spectrum. To set the center frequency, do one of the following:
l
Click the arrows to increase or decrease the frequency. Values range from 20Hz to
20kHz, adjustable in increments of 1Hz. Each band has a default center frequency
that will be applied if the Reset button at the bottom of the band is clicked.
l
Manually enter a value in the Frequency field.
d. Set a bandwidth to determine how wide of a frequency range is effected by the equalizer
band. To set the bandwidth, do one of the following:
l
Click the arrows to increase or decrease the bandwidth. Values range from 0.1
octaves to 4.0 octaves, adjustable in increments of 0.1 octave.
l
Manually enter a value in the Bandwidth field.
e. The individual Bypass controls allow you to bypass a single band of equalization at a time
for more granular A/B testing of a single filter. Set a band's Bypass toggle to the right
position to bypass that band. Set the toggle to the left position to disable the bypass. By
default, Bypass is disabled.
f. Each equalizer band has a Reset button that will reapply the default settings for that band.

Bussing
The bussing feature on DMNAX devices allows an integrator to assign any number of selected zones to
a fixed group of zones (bus). Zones in a bus track the other zones’ volume and routing. For example,
when the source or volume for one zone in the bus is adjusted, all other zones in that bus receive the
same adjustment. You can create up to two buses on the DM-NAX-4ZSA-50.
