the default state, rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to
select "NO", then press the [ENTER/SELECT] button.

the "User" settings.

Explanation
0~127
Use this parameter to set
the equalizer's input
level. This may be neces-
sary when the level of
the input signals is so
high that the sound dis-
torts.
NOTE
Do not set this param-
eter to "0" if the equal-
izer is switched on,
because doing so
means that the key-
board parts, SMF song/
rhythm is/are no
longer audible.
–9~0~9dB
Use this parameter to
correct the level at the
equalizer's outputs. If
the settings of the
remaining parameters
lead to a significantly
lower level, select a posi-
tive value. If your set-
tings lead to a
significantly higher level,
select a negative value.
"0" means that the level
is neither boosted nor
attenuated.
2000~
Allows you to set the
12000Hz
cutoff frequency of the
high band (this is a
shelving filter).
–15~15dB
Use this parameter to set
the level of the selected
"High" frequency. Posi-
tive values boost
(increase the volume of)
that frequency band,
negative values cut
(attenuate) it.
200~8000Hz
Allows you to set the
cutoff frequency of the
middle band (this is a
peaking filter).
