The Z2's internal EQ type is exactly like the "P900 KILL" in TRAKTOR software. When used
as a standalone mixer (no connection to the TRAKTOR software), this will always be the EQ
type used. By default, this is also the EQ type in TRAKTOR as well, so when using the Z2
to mix in TRAKTOR, you will notice absolutely no change in the sound of the EQ. However,
in the TRAKTOR preferences you can change the EQ type In the Mixer tab.
HI-EQ Knobs
The HI-EQ knobs control the high equalizer band of the channel both in the TRAKTOR soft-
ware and in the Z2 simultaneously. The center position corresponds to 0dB and provides no
boost or cut to the frequency band.
MID-EQ Knobs
Similarly, the MID-EQ knobs control the mid-range band of the associated channel, both in the
TRAKTOR software and in the Z2 simultaneously. The center position corresponds to 0dB and
provides no boost or cut to the band.
LOW-EQ Knobs
Just like the HI and MID-EQ knobs, the LOW-EQ knobs also control their respective frequency
bands ā in this case the low band. The center position of the LOW-EQ knobs also have no
effect on the sound: 0bB with no boost or cut in the low band.
Filter Knobs
The two FILTER knobs give you a one-knob control of a pair of perfectly-matched filters: a low
pass (turning to the left of the center position) and a high pass (turning to the right of the cen-
ter position) filter. Like the EQ knobs, the center position corresponds to 0dB and has no ef-
fect on the sound.
If the Z2's hardware knobs ever appear to be off center with regards to the what the TRAK-
TOR software is showing, you can always recalibrate them easily. To do this, go into TRAK-
TOR's preferences and open the Z2 tab.
