EQUALIZER
You can customize the tone quality of your Hammond SKX eith er by adjusting the frequency curves of the Drawbars and
Extra Voices separately or using the MASTER EQUALIZER to tailor the sound of the Drawbars and Extra Voices
simultaneously.
Ë What Is “Equalization?
“Equalization” is a term used by sound engineers to describe changes or alterations they make to the character of sound. For
example, if a piano is being “miked,” (its sound output being picked up by a microphone) and the tone needs to sound
brighter or to have more bass, a sound engineer can increase or decrease the level of individual “frequency bands,” as they
are called, to achieve just the desired effect. The “BASS” and “TREBLE” tone controls on a home stereo amplifier can be
said to be a very elementary type of equalization. However, a true equalizer allows you control over more areas of the
frequency range than just “highs” and “lows.” The Equalizer functions of your SKX have this capability.
