Configuring the System EQ and System Comp Settings (SYSTEM EQ/SYSTEM COMP)
Parameter

Explanation
SYSTEM EQ
Switch
OFF, ON
Turns SYSTEM EQ on/off.
In Gain
-24–+24 [dB]
Adjusts the amount of boost/cut for the input to the EQ.
Low Gain
-24.0–+24.0 [dB]
Adjusts the boost/cut of the low frequency range.
Mid1 Gain
-24.0–+24.0 [dB]
Adjusts the amount of boost/cut of the mid-frequency range 1.
Mid2 Gain
-24.0–+24.0 [dB]
Adjusts the amount of boost/cut of the mid-frequency range 2.
Mid3 Gain
-24.0–+24.0 [dB]
Adjusts the amount of boost/cut of the mid-frequency range 3.
High Gain
-24.0–+24.0 [dB]
Adjusts the boost/cut of the high frequency range.
Low Freq
20–16000 [Hz]
Sets the center frequency of the low range.
Mid1 Freq
20–16000 [Hz]
Sets the center frequency of the mid range 1.
Mid2 Freq
20–16000 [Hz]
Sets the center frequency of the mid range 2.
Mid3 Freq
20–16000 [Hz]
Sets the center frequency of the mid range 3.
High Freq
20–16000 [Hz]
Sets the center frequency of the high range.
Mid1 Q
0.5–16.0
Sets the bandwidth of the mid-frequency range 1.
Higher values make the bandwidth narrower.
Mid2 Q
0.5–16.0
Sets the bandwidth of the mid-frequency range 2.
Higher values make the bandwidth narrower.
Mid3 Q
0.5–16.0
Sets the bandwidth of the mid-frequency range 3.
Higher values make the bandwidth narrower.
SYSTEM COMP
Switch
OFF, ON
Turns SYSTEM COMP on/off.
Low Attack
0.1–100 [ms]
Specifies the time from when the input exceeds Low Thres until compression is applied to
the volume of the low-frequency band.
Low Release
10–1000 [ms]
In a state when compression is already being applied, this specifies the time from when the
input decreases below Low Thres until the low-frequency band stops being compressed.
Low Thres
-60–0 [dB]
Specifies the volume level at which compression starts for the low-frequency band.
Low Ratio
1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 8:1,
16:1, 32:1, INF:1
Specifies the compression ratio for the low-frequency band.
Low Knee
0–30 [dB]
This function smooths out the sonic transition, from when the compression is not engaged
until when the compression begins.
This gradually applies compression from just before the Low Thres point.
Higher values produce a smoother transition.
Low Gain
-24–+24 [dB]
Specifies the output volume of the low-frequency band.
Mid Attack
0.1–100 [ms]
Specifies the time from when the input exceeds Mid Thres until compression is applied to
the volume of the mid-frequency band.
Mid Release
10–1000 [ms]
In a state when compression is already being applied, this specifies the time from when the
input decreases below Mid Thres until the mid-frequency band stops being compressed.
Mid Thres
-60–0 [dB]
Specifies the volume level at which compression starts for the mid-frequency band.
Mid Ratio
1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 8:1,
16:1, 32:1, INF:1
Specifies the compression ratio for the mid-frequency band.
Mid Knee
0–30 [dB]
This function smooths out the sonic transition, from when the compression is not engaged
until when the compression begins.
This gradually applies compression from just before the Mid Thres point.
Higher values produce a smoother transition.
Mid Gain
-24–+24 [dB]
Specifies the output volume of the mid-frequency band.
High Attack
0.1–100 [ms]
Specifies the time from when the input exceeds High Thres until compression is applied to
the volume of the high-frequency band.
High
Release
10–1000 [ms]
In a state when compression is already being applied, this specifies the time from when the
input decreases below High Thres until the high-frequency band stops being compressed.
High Thres
-60–0 [dB]
Specifies the volume level at which compression starts for the high-frequency band.
High Ratio
1:1, 2:1, 3:1, 4:1, 8:1,
16:1, 32:1, INF:1
Specifies the compression ratio for the high-frequency band.
High Knee
0–30 [dB]
This function smooths out the sonic transition, from when the compression is not engaged
until when the compression begins.
This gradually applies compression from just before the High Thres point.
Higher values produce a smoother transition.
High Gain
-24–+24 [dB]
Specifies the output volume of the high-frequency band.
Split Freq
Low
16–16000 [Hz]
Specifies the frequency at which the low-frequency band (Low) and mid-frequency band
(Mid) are divided.
Split Freq
High
16–16000 [Hz]
Specifies the frequency at which the high-frequency band (High) and mid-frequency band
(Mid) are divided.
