On each band, you should notice an audible "sweep," like of like a wah-wah pedal opening up. Each of the

three bands will accentuate a different range of frequencies, and you can begin to correlate numbers with

certain sounds. Chances are that, with each section, you'll find a couple of positions that are either

pleasing or unpleasing to your ear. As you notice this, adjust the level control of that band to the desired

amount of cut or boost.

After finding a position on each control, activate the EQ DEFEAT switch (located on the Aural Enhancer

Control Knob) to compare. The more you do this, the more you should be able to relate frequency

numbers to their respective sounds. As you find different settings that you like, you may want to write

them down somewhere.

Here's a quick guide that will help you get off the ground in finding a certain kind of sound with the semi-

parametric EQ controls:

PROBLEM:

Not enough solid low end

Midrange is honky or hollow sounding

Treble is harsh and hurts the ear

Having trouble cutting through the band

Not enough presence, lackluster

Too much pick or finger noise

Need a more dynamic, "piano" sound

Try a few of the above examples. Then try doing just the opposite, just to hear both ends of the spectrum.

As always, there's only one final judge as to what's a "good" sound—your own ears. Experimentation is

encouraged.
