being applied to the signal is shown as a value between 0 dB and -30 dB.
Please note that, when pressing the VIEW button, the attenuation level
displayed on the Main Display shows a value of between 0 dB and -60 dB.
(3) COMP
Pressing the COMP button engages the compressor for the selected channel.

Pressing the MODE button cycles through each of the EQ modes for the
currently selected frequency range. Each of the modes and the frequency
ranges to which they apply are listed below:
HCUT
A high-cut function which attenuates signals above the selected frequency.
HSHV
A high-shelving function which boosts or attenuates signals above the
selected frequency. Only available with the HIGH 2 - HIGH setting.
VEQ
A bell lter that provides a more ‘Vintage EQ’ sound. Available on all
frequency settings.
PEQ
A bell lter that provides a classic ‘Parametric EQ’ sound. Available on all
frequency settings.
LSHV
A low-shelving function which boosts or attenuates signals below the
selected frequency. Only available with the LOW 2 - LOW setting.
LCUT
A low-cut function which attenuates signals below the selected frequency.
NOTE: Low-Cut and High-Cut Modes do not have Gain and Width settings.
(2) WIDTH Rotary Control
The WIDTH rotary control determines the span of frequencies around that
specied by the FREQUENCY rotary control, which will be aected by
adjusting the GAIN control.
(3) FREQUENCY Rotary Control
Select the specic frequency to be adjusted with the FREQUENCY
rotary control. Each frequency can be adjusted between 20 Hz and 20 kHz.
The equaliser provides four discreet lter bands for input channels and even
six discreet bands for buses and matrices as follows:
7 - Individual Band Frequencies
HIGH
A band intended for high frequencies, with access to HCUT, HSHV, VEQ and
PEQ EQ modes.
HI MID
A band intended for high-mid frequencies, with access to VEQ and
PEQ EQ modes.
LO MID
A band intended for low-mid frequencies, with access to VEQ and
PEQ EQ modes.
LOW
A band intended for low frequencies, with access to LCUT, LSHV, VEQ and
PEQ EQ modes.
HIGH 2
Press HIGH and HI MID concurrently to access the HIGH 2 band of
any bus equaliser.
LOW 2
Press LOW and LO MID concurrently to access the LOW 2 band of any
bus equaliser.
(4) GAIN Rotary Control
Boost or attenuate the selected frequency by turning the GAIN rotary
control. The selected equaliser band is inactive when the Gain control is in
the centre position (0 dB).
(5) EQ Button
Engages the EQ function for the selected channel.
(6) VIEW
Press the VIEW button to access more detailed parameters on the
Main Display. See the section Main Display - eq for more details.
