(4.19) Global EQ
The Global EQ screen lets you quickly apply additional equalization to all your rigs without permanently saving them.
These settings are especially useful when a venue, rehearsal space, or other environment has different acoustic
characteristics than the room where you originally created your rigs (e.g., the venue may sound “boomier,” or a
rehearsal space with soundproofing may deaden some of the high end).
To access the Global EQ screen, tap the Menu icon in the top left of the Main screen, and then tap
the Global EQ icon.
These settings determine if/how equalization is applied
the XLR outputs (the settings on the first tab in the left
column) and/or the 1/4” (6.35 mm) outputs (the settings
on the second tab in the left column half of the screen).
Each equalizer is a four-band parametric equalizer.
The available settings for each set of outputs are as
follows:
EQ: This setting determines whether equalization is
enabled (On) or disabled (Off) for the outputs.
Level: This setting determines if/how much the signal
level from the outputs is boosted or cut. This value
is applied to the level set by the Main knob.
Low, Low Mid, High & High Mid: The settings for each of these four frequency bands determine the shape of
the equalization:
The frequency setting (Hz) determines the center frequency of the low-frequency band, low-mid-
frequency band, high-frequency band, or high-mid-frequency band. You can adjust this by tapping on the
dot for the desired frequency band, and dragging it left or right. Alternatively, you can tap the frequency
field and use the Main knob to adjust it with more precision.
The gain setting (dB) determines how much the equalizer boosts or cuts the signal at the corresponding
frequency band. You can adjust this by tapping on the dot for the desired frequency band, and dragging it
up or down. Alternatively, you can tap the gain field and use the Main knob to adjust it with more precision.
The quality setting (Q) determines the width of the frequency band. The higher the setting, the wider the
band will be around the center frequency (the first setting). This setting is applied whether
Low Band or
High Band is set to Shelf or Cut. You can adjust this by tapping and holding on the dot for the desired
frequency band and tapping and dragging left or right with a second finger. Alternatively, you can tap the
quality field and use the Main knob to adjust it with more precision.
The mode setting determines what type of equalization is applied to the lowest-frequency band (Low
Band) and to the highest-frequency band (High Band): Shelf or Cut. This setting is not available for the
Low Mid and High Mid bands. You can adjust this by tapping on the mode field and turning the Main
knob.
You can reset the Global EQ feature back to the factory defaults by tapping the Reset icon at the bottom of the
left column on this screen.
Note: This feature is specifically designed for adjusting the sound of every rig at once to accommodate your
performance environment. If you would like to use an EQ with a similar interface in a specific rig, try the Para EQ
block, located in the EQ category when adding a block to a rig.
