5 - Channel modules : EQ EQ The four-band EQ provided on the first 32 channel modules of the DM-3200 allows precise sound shaping, combined with flexibility, and repeatability, thanks to the library store and recall facilities. To view the EQ settings for a module, press the MODULE key until the EQ page is shown. Figure 5.10: Module EQ screen TIP The instructions here refer to POD use, but you can put the encoders into EQ mode, and use the encoders to adjust individual EQ parameters for the selected channel (see "Encoders" on page 20 for full details). It is also possible to link the screen display to the encoders, or the other way round, so that changing one automatically changes the other. See "PREFERENCES" on page 34. Use the cursor keys to move the "box" around the screen, and the four POD encoders to change the values of the gain (where appropriate), frequency, Q (where appropriate) and the type of filter for the selected band. Turn the EQ on and off using the unshifted EQ/DYN key (see "Turning the processors on and off" on page 62), or by using the on-screen EQ button (circled in Figure 5.10, Module EQ screen) Turn the individual band highlighted by the box on and off using the ENTER key. As you make changes to the EQ setting, the graph at the top of the screen changes as does the one by at the top of the "global section". All bands have the same frequency range: from 31 Hz to 19 kHz (in 112 steps). The amount of gain is ±18 dB for all bands. Q (where appropriate) can be set to any of the following 24 values: 8.65, 4.32, 2.87, 2.14, 1.71, 1.41, 1.20, 1.04, 0.92, 0.82, 0.74, 0.67, 0.61, 0.56, 0.51, 0.47, 0.44, 0.40, 0.38, 0.35, 0.33, 0.30, 0.28, or 0.27. The types of EQ filter available are: Low band: Low Shelf, Peak, HPF (high-pass filter) Low-mid band: Peak or Notch High-mid band: Peak or Notch High band: High Shelf, Peak, LPF (low-pass filter) Note that the following parameters are used by the different EQ filters: Peak filter: Gain, Frequency, Q Shelving filters (high and low): Gain and Frequency HPF and LPF: Frequency Notch filters: Frequency and Q Unused parameters are grayed out on screen or if encoders are elected to set the EQ, the encoders for the unused parameters are disabled, and no indicators are lit. Encoders and EQ The encoders can be used to make EQ settings (unmodified ENCODER key 4) as described in "Encoders" on page 20. 66 TASCAM DM-3200 User's Manual

5 – Channel modules : EQ

TASCAM DM-3200
User’s Manual
EQ
The four-band EQ provided on the first 32 channel
modules of the DM-3200 allows precise sound shap-
ing, combined with flexibility, and repeatability,
thanks to the library store and recall facilities.
To view the EQ settings for a module, press the
MODULE
key until the EQ page is shown.
TIP
The instructions here refer to POD use, but you can put
the encoders into EQ mode, and use the encoders to
adjust individual EQ parameters for the selected chan-
nel (see “Encoders” on page 20 for full details). It is also
possible to link the screen display to the encoders, or
the other way round, so that changing one automati-
cally changes the other. See “PREFERENCES” on
page 34.
Use the cursor keys to move the “box” around the
screen, and the four POD encoders to change the val-
ues of the gain (where appropriate), frequency, Q
(where appropriate) and the type of filter for the
selected band.
Turn the EQ on and off using the unshifted
EQ/DYN
key (see “Turning the processors on and off” on
page 62), or by using the on-screen
EQ
button (circled
in Figure 5.10,
Module EQ screen
)
Turn the individual band highlighted by the box on
and off using the
ENTER
key.
As you make changes to the EQ setting, the graph at
the top of the screen changes as does the one by at
the top of the “global section”.
All bands have the same frequency range: from 31 Hz
to 19 kHz (in 112 steps).
The amount of gain is ±18 dB for all bands.
Q (where appropriate) can be set to any of the follow-
ing 24 values: 8.65, 4.32, 2.87, 2.14, 1.71, 1.41, 1.20,
1.04, 0.92, 0.82, 0.74, 0.67, 0.61, 0.56, 0.51, 0.47,
0.44, 0.40, 0.38, 0.35, 0.33, 0.30, 0.28, or 0.27.
The types of EQ filter available are:
Low band:
Low Shelf, Peak, HPF (high-pass filter)
Low-mid band:
Peak or Notch
High-mid band:
Peak or Notch
High band:
High Shelf, Peak, LPF (low-pass filter)
Note that the following parameters are used by the
different EQ filters:
Peak filter:
Gain, Frequency, Q
Shelving filters (high and low):
Gain and Frequency
HPF and LPF:
Frequency
Notch filters:
Frequency and Q
Unused parameters are grayed out on screen or if
encoders are elected to set the EQ, the encoders for
the unused parameters are disabled, and no indicators
are lit.
Encoders and EQ
The encoders can be used to
make EQ settings (unmodified
ENCODER
key 4) as
described in “Encoders” on page 20.
