USING THE EQUALIZER

Always start with the equalizer controls set to '0' (the control knobs set
vertical). Experiment with combinations of settings of EQ always trying to
picture how the audio signal will be affected by changing the frequency
bands. Avoid using high levels of 'lift', and whenever 'lift' is applied, keep a
close eye on the overload LED. If this LED comes on more than
occasionally, turn down the input.
- Use the EQ IN/OUT button to do instant comparisons between EQ and
non EQ signals.

SAMPLE SETTINGS

This section is aimed at providing a good starting point for getting good
results. While these settings do not guarantee a good sound, they do work
in most situations. The correct level of the input gain and output gain
cannot be predicted. This depends on your source and monitoring
equipment. Always try to run these as high as you can without creating any
audible distortion.
