5 - Effects Core Effects Descriptions 3-Band EQ This versatile equalizer provides two shelving filters at the high and low ends of the frequency range and a fully parametric band in the center. Up to ±24 dB of boost or cut is provided for each band. Low Shelf +24dB Corner Freq. Gain Cut Boost + - -24dB Mid Band Width Center Frequency High Shelf Corner Freq. Note: The Wet/Dry Mix control on an equalizer should normally be set to 100% wet or unpredictable results may occur. Setting up a Parametric EQ 1. Turn up the gain on the band you are working with. This allows you to easily hear the effect of the filter. 2. Reduce the bandwidth if you are working with a mid-band. 3. Adjust the Center Frequency to "zero-in" on the frequencies you wish to boost/cut. 4. Set the Gain to a positive value to boost frequencies or to a negative value to cut out frequencies. 5. Widen the Bandwidth to create a more natural sound. 6. Adjust and tweak as needed. Parameter Description High Shelf Gain Sets the amount of cut (-) or boost (+) of the high frequency shelf.
