Using a Control Surface
EQ III can be controlled from any supported
control surface, including Digidesign's
D-Control, D-Command, ProControl, Con-
trol|24, Digi 002, or Command|8. Refer to the
guide that came with the control surface for de-
tails.

Input Gain Control
The Input Gain control sets the input gain of the
plug-in before EQ processing, letting you make
up gain or prevent clipping at the plug-in input
stage.

Output Gain Control
(7 Band EQ and 2–4 Band EQ Only)
The Output Gain control sets the output gain af-
ter EQ processing, letting you make up gain or
prevent clipping on the channel where the plug-
in is being used.
Input Polarity Control
The Input Polarity button inverts the polarity of
the input signal, to help compensate for phase
anomalies occurring in multi-microphone envi-
ronments, or because of mis-wired balanced
connections.
Input and Output Meters
(7 Band EQ and 2–4 Band EQ Only)
The plasma-style Input and Output meters show
peak signal levels before and after EQ process-
ing, and indicate them as follows:
Green Indicates nominal levels
Yellow Indicates pre-clipping levels, starting at
–6 dB below full scale
Red Indicates full scale levels (clipping)
The clip indicators at the far right of each meter
indicate clipping at the input or output stage of
the plug-in. Clip indicators can be cleared by
clicking the indicator.
