How to emphasize and de-emphasize sounds
To emphasize or, alternatively to de-emphasize a sound, do the following:
1. Identify the frequency band in which the sound occurs, and then identify the relevant fader.
2. If you want to:
emphasize the sound, do one of the following:
Slide the relevant fader up. The FBQ800 boosts the signal level in the relevant
frequency band.
Slide the faders for the surrounding frequency bands down. The FBQ800 cuts the
signal level in the surrounding frequency bands.
de-emphasize a sound, do one of the following:
Slide the relevant fader down. The FBQ800 cuts the signal level in the relevant
frequency band.
Slide the faders for the surrounding frequency bands up. The FBQ800 boosts the
signal level in the surrounding frequency bands.
When you choose to cut rather than boost the signal level, you protect audio
equipment from high signal levels (clipping) and preserve valuable headroom.
