Dual Graphic EQ / Stereo Graphic EQ / Dual TruEQ / Stereo TruEQ

There are four standard graphic EQs that provide 31 bands of adjustment between 20 Hz and 20 kHz. A master volume
slider compensates for changes in volume caused by the EQ. A maximum boost or cut of 15 dB is available for each band.
The TruEQ incorporates a special algorithm that compensates for the gain adjustment overlapping effect that adjacent
frequency bands have on one another. On a standard EQ, when neighbouring bands are boosted together, the resulting
effect is magnified beyond what is visible from the positioning of the sliders.
This compensated EQ will produce an adjustment that is identical to the actual positioning of the sliders.
Graphic EQ without frequency response correction.

Dual DeEsser / Stereo DeEsser

De-essing is an audio effect designed to reduce the amount of excessive sibilance in an audio signal, usually when dealing
with the human voice. The Dual DeEsser accurately and seamlessly removes sibilance from audio tracks.
The Lo-Band and Hi-Band controls select which portion of the audio spectrum is affected by the DeEsser on each chan-
nel. By increasing the amount of reduction, the level to which the de-essing affects the input signal can be controlled. By
pressing the first and third rotary controls, the effect can be targeted specifically at male or female voices.
With the Stereo DeEsser, toggle between Stereo and Mono modes by pressing the fifth rotary control.
