Bss® Graphic Equalisers - SoundCraft Vi1 User Manual

BSS® Graphic Equalisers
The Vi1 uses a total of 27 high-quality BSS® Graphic Equalisers (GEQ).
Each of the 24 Busses and the three Main Masters are equipped with a 30-band Graphic Equalizer
modelled on the FCS-960 from BSS®.
To access any of the GEQs first press the [BUSSES 1-16] or [BUSSES 17-24] key.
A touch on the <GEQ Field> opens the GEQ Page and changes the Fader Glow colour of the8 output
section faders to red.
The 8 output section faders are labelled with the GEQ Frequencies, and control the Gain of the individual
bands. The range of control is +/- 12dB.
Hint: when a fader is moved away from its default 0dB position, the [ON] key above the fader
glows red. Pressing a red [ON] key will reset the fader to the 0dB position.
Alternatively, solo an output bus in the Control Bay. This brings up the Output Channel Strip on the upper
left quadrant of the screen. Touch the <GEQ> field of the Output Channel to access the GEQ on the faders,
as described above.
When a <GEQ Field> is touched, the master bay's screen appears as shown here.
There are two controls available on this screen:
FLAT ALL
{FLAT ALL} set the Gains of all 30 bands to 0 dB
GEQ {IN}
GEQ {IN} switches the GEQ on. The colour of the graph in the <GEQ Field> of the output in question
changes to red when it is switched on.
