Here you may select whether you will edit in mono or, with stereo samples,
in stereo. When EQ'ing stereo samples, you can select MONO and EQ
each side separately if you wish.
This selects the EQ response curve. You may select LOW SHELF. This
offers the following response slope:
A frequency range below the EQ frequency setting can be cut or boosted.
This is good for adding or removing bass end components in a sound.
The next selection is BAND WIDE:
A wide band either side of the EQ frequency can be cut or boosted. This
selection is useful for gently accentuating or removing certain frequencies
in the sound. It would be useful to add some mid range frequencies to a
snare sound, for example. The next selection, BAND THIN is well suited for
removing specific frequencies but the wider frequency response of BAND
WIDE makes the EQ effect slightly broader.
