tone effect. Each time you press the [UP] or
[ON] button, the tone effect changes in the
following order:

• Compensation
There is no need to compensate frequency
characteristics if they are flat (no peaks or
valleys) when you have measured the
frequency characteristics with a measuring
device. However, sometimes the frequency
characteristics rise or fall in some places. If this
happens, the frequency characteristics must be
compensated. Create a frequency curve having
characteristics that are opposite to the center
frequency of parts where the characteristics rise
and fall to cancel out these peaks and values,
and make the frequency characteristics as flat
as possible.
Making the frequency characteristics as flat as
possible is called "Compensation".
• Compensation of frequency
characteristics
The figure below shows the relationship
between the center frequency, gain and
0
curve.
. 0 curve
The
0
curve becomes sharper when the
numerical value is increased, and smoother
when the numerical value is decreased.
Flat frequency characteristics can be made by
selecting a
0
curve opposite to that of the curve
to be compensated.

• Adjusting the bass
The bass gain, bass FREO (center frequency)
and bass

gain, the FREO (center frequency) and the
O.
B GAIN: -7 to 7 (The factory default setting
is "0")
B FREQ: 50Hz/80Hz/120Hz (The factory
default setting is "50")
