Setting The Equalizer-Eq (Psr-2000 Only) - Yamaha PORTATONE PSR-1000 Owner's Manual

Setting the Equalizer—EQ (PSR-2000 only)
Usually an equalizer is used to correct the sound output from amps or speakers to match the special character of the
room. The sound is divided into several frequency bands, allowing you to correct the sound by raising or lowering the
level for each band. The equalizer allows you to adjust the tone or timbre of the sound to match the performance
space, or to compensate for certain acoustic characteristics in your room. For example, you can cut some of the low
range frequencies when playing on stages or in large studio spaces where the sound is too "boomy," or boost the high
frequencies in rooms and close spaces where the sound is relatively "dead" and free of echoes.The PSR-2000 possesses
a high grade five-band digital equalizer function. With this function, a final effect —tone control— can be added to the
output of your instrument.

Whenever an EQ band is edited the corresponding EQ value is highlighted and the number of the
edited band appears above the Q and FREQ controls. The Q and FREQ controls can then be
used to adjust the Q (bandwidth) and the FREQ (center frequency) of the selected band. The
higher the "Q," the narrower the bandwidth. The available FREQ range is different for each band.
