PAL Used in most European, South American, Asian
and African Countries. This setting can be used
also with SECAM TV sets (used in France, Rus-
sia, and some Countries of Africa); in this latter
case, however, the picture is shown in black &
white.
NTSC Used in North America, Central America and
part of South America. It is also used in Japan,
Korea, Taiwan, Philippines and Burma.

Non-Interlaced
Mostly useful for LCD and Plasma TV sets or
monitors.

MaxxAudio: MaxxEQ
MaxxEQ is a full spectrum frequency equalization, positioned at
the end of the signal chain, just before the Left & Right audio
outputs. It gives you the power to design EQ curves and shape
your sound. Based on Waves professional audio equalizers,
MaxxEQ features seven fully programmable bands with fully
adjustable gain, frequency, and Q parameters.
To edit a parameter, touch it and drag it to change its value (or
touch it and use the VALUE controls to change its value).
Maxx Preset
Use this pop-up menu to choose one of the available MaxxAudio
Presets, and automatically reconfigure the EQ and AUDIO
parameters.

EQ Diagram
This diagram shows the EQ curve. Its shape changes depending
on the various parameter values.
Gain
Gain of the corresponding band. Use it to make the frequencies
stronger or weaker.
Freq
Center frequency of the corresponding band. Center it on the
problematic frequency, or the harmonics you want to emphasize
or attenuate.
Q
‘Quality’ of the EQ filter; higher values correspond to narrower,
more accurate filters. Use higher values for near-surgical correc-
tion on isolated frequencies, lower values for more musical,
softer equalization.
On/Off
Use these buttons to turn the corresponding bands on or off.
