Shelving Type.
Mids Boost and Cut: +/-12dB, at frequency selected by the
mids sweep control. Q varies (see below).
Mids Center Frequency (Sweep): 200 Hz (counterclockwise)
to 1 kHz (clockwise). Provides a varying Q, that is narrow
in the low frequencies and increasingly broad in the higher
frequencies, for a more useful effect range.
iceTone™: The iceTone control blends in the high frequency
enhancement built into each individual string saddle. iceTone
cannot be selected separately, but is added to the optical signal.
Blending in some iceTone will deliver more percussive presence
and crisp high end. Full rotation counterclockwise is off.
