STEREO GRAPHIC EQUALIZER
QUICK START
If this is your first equalizer, please do yourself and
your speakers a favor and read at least the first five pages.
"An ounce of prevention...," and all that.
The MQ 302S is a stereo equalizer, so adjusting any
slider affects both channels simultaneously. Begin by
setting all sliders to their center detent (0 dB), and the
INPUT LEVEL to its center detent (0 dB). Try to make
more cuts than boosts. After equalizing, use the EQ switch
to compare equalized and non-equalized signal. While EQ
is switched to ACTIVE (out), adjust the INPUT LEVEL
to the same level as when EQ is switched to BYPASS
(in).
You may use either the XLR or ¼" connectors for
Inputs or Outputs. Connect only one INPUT type per
channel. The XLR and ¼" TRS inputs do not sum. You
may, however, use both types of OUTPUTS simulta-
neously if desired.
