Equalizer
settings
(Tonal
adjustment)
The
XR-7
has
two
types
of
equalizer:
shelving
and
parametric.
They
have
the
following
functions:
Shelving
equalizer
This
allows
you
to
equalize
only
channel
1—4
signal,
controlling
the
low
frequency
range
of
100Hz
±12dB,
and
high
range
of
10kHz
±12dB.
Parametric
equalizer
(Assignable
Parametric
EQ
function)
This
equalizer
is
used
to
equalize
the
channel
5
and
6
signal,
or
the
stereo
bus
L
and
R.
Use
the
[EQ
SEL]
switch
to
determine
which
signal
is
controlled.
The
parametric
equalizer
allows
for
a
fine
equalizing
of
the
middle
frequency
range
of
200Hz
-
5kHz,
in
addition
to
the
low
and
high
frequency
ranges.
Connect
the
sound
source
for
a
subtle
tonal
adjustment
to
the
[INPUT]
jacks
5
and
6.
Since
in
multitrack
recording
the
sounds
can
be
layered
and
re-recorded
many
times,
the
high
frequencies
may
eventually
begin
soundingduli.
Forthis
reason
it
is
a
good
idea
to
boost
the
high
frequencies
a
bit
when
recording.
