Input Channel − Peq - QSC MP-M80 User Manual

Input Channel − PEQ
This screen controls and displays the settings for the
Input Channel parametric equalization.
The PEQ is a 4-band, fully parametric EQ that includes
variable HPF (High Pass Filter) & LPF (Low Pass Filter).
• The HPF is variable with a range of 20 Hz
to 2,000 Hz. It passes frequencies above
the setting while cutting those below.
• The LPF is variable with a range of 1 kHz
to 20 kHz. It passes frequencies below the
setting while cutting those above.
• Bands 1 and 4 may be configured as
shelving filters.
1. PEQ tab – Selects the EQ screen.
2. – Engages / disengages the equalizer.

3. RTA On – Engages / disengages the a real time
analyzer that displays the tonal balance of the
channel's signal including peak hold indicators.
Only one RTA may be running on

the system at a time. Touch the RTA
button. If another device is using the RTA,
the message to the right displays.
NOTE!: When the RTA is off, the Parametric EQ graph expands to use the entire graph area.
4. Simple button – Hides the Frequency, and Q controls for all bands and low and high cut filters. Changing to Simple mode does not affect
existing settings.
5. Reset button – Sets all the PEQ controls to their factory default position.
6. RTA display – Displays the amplitude of the channel signal in 1/3 octave bands. Peak hold indicators are displayed for each band.
• graph vertical scale – Represents audio level from -60 dB to -5 dB.
RTA
• graph horizontal scale – Represents frequency from 31.5 Hz to 16 kHz.

7. Parametric EQ graph – A graphic representation of the equalization curve based on the PEQ settings. The trace dims to indicate that the PEQ
is Out (disengaged).
• EQ graph vertical scale – Represents audio level from -20 dB to +20 dB.
• EQ graph horizontal scale – Represents frequency from 20 Hz to 20 kHz.

engaged, the Q control is not available. The low shelving filter raises or lowers a range of frequencies below the set frequency. The high shelving
filter raises or lowers a range of frequencies above the set frequency.
11. Frequency Bands 1, 2, 3, and 4
frequency range of 20 Hz to 20 kHz.
12. Nain control knob and readout – Adjusts the gain at the frequency setting of the associated EQ band. Range of -15 dB to +15 dB.
13. Freq control knob (Frequency bands 1 – 4) – Sets the center frequency of the associated EQ band. If the Shelving filter is engaged, the Freq
control sets the knee frequency of the shelf filter.
14. knob – Adjusts the Q of the associated EQ band. When the Shelf Filter is selected, the Q control is hidden. In addition, Q can be adjusted by

"pinching".
15. (Low and High Cut) – Sets the frequency of the low and/or high cut filter as measured from a point 3 dB below 0 or unity.
