Table 2 8.3.3 General EQ Suggestions
Included with your StudioLive is a library of Channel Strip presets. Section
4.1.6 discusses how to load these presets onto a channel or bus and how
to create your own presets. For an idea of where to start, check out the
following generic EQ settings for several dierent instruments. As with the
compression settings in Section 8.2.3, the right EQ setting for any given
instrument will depend upon the room and the tonality of the instrument.
