Using The Equalizer - Pioneer CNDV-40R Operating Manual

Using the equalizer

The graphic equalizer lets you adjust the equali-
zation to match vehicle interior acoustic charac-
teristics as desired.
Recalling equalizer curves
There are seven stored equalizer curves which
you can easily recall at any time. Here is a list of
the equalizer curves:
Display Equalizer curve
SUPER BASS
Super bass
POWERFUL
Powerful
NATURAL Natural
VOCAL Vocal
CUSTOM1, 2 Custom1, 2
FLAT Flat
❒ "CUSTOM1" and "CUSTOM2" are adjusted
equalizer curves.
❒ A separate "CUSTOM1" curve can be cre-
ated for each source. (The CD player and
Multi-CD player are set to the same Equalizer
Curve Adjustment setting automatically when
using the AVH-P6400CD.)
❒ If you make adjustments when a curve other
than "CUSTOM2" is selected, the equalizer
curve settings are memorized in
"CUSTOM1".
❒ A "CUSTOM2" curve can be created com-
mon to all sources.
❒ If you make adjustments when the
"CUSTOM2" curve is selected, the
"CUSTOM2" curve is updated.
❒ When "FLAT" is selected no supplement or
correction is made to the sound. This is useful
to check the effect of the equalizer curves by
switching alternatively between "FLAT "and a
set equalizer curve.
