Graphic EQ Controls
Control each of the thirty bands of EQ with high resolution, 256
step slide controls. The center detent position guarantees a flat
response. Perfect-Q™ filters guarantee accurate graphic response
and no band interaction.
The elimination of band interaction means the DEQ filters
are suitable for "ringing out a room" and capable of the very
subtle adjustments required by the most demanding user. Unlike
previous designs that act upon a bandwidth of up to one octave
when cut 12 dB, Perfect-Q only affects the intended 1/3 octave.
For the first time, the user is able to adjust a single 1/3 octave
band with no affect on adjacent bands. The lack of band interac-
tion guarantees slider settings accurately indicate frequency
response.
For full details and comparisons to previous EQs, see
"Perfect-Q: The Next Step in EQ Design" included with this
manual.
