FIR Linear Phase Equalisation
The Input High-Shelf Equalisers use Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filtering to produce Linear Phase
equalisation; that is all frequencies are delayed by the same amount, perfectly preserving the
transient response. This can also be important in applications where different amounts of EQ are
applied to different parts of a speaker cluster, such as to add 'Throw' EQ boost so that parts of cluster
which are throwing further can have HF absorption correction added. If this EQ is not linear phase,
then the zones where the speakers combine may suffer frequency response anomalies.
