4-band EQ 4-band EQ The AW2400 provides 4-band parametric equalization (LOW, LO-MID, HI-MID, HIGH) on the channels listed below. • Input • Effect Return • Track • Stereo Output • Bus Master • AUX Send Master The LO-MID and HI-MID bands provide peaking EQ control, while the LOW and HIGH bands can be used in shelving, peaking or high-pass filter (LOW)/low-pass filter (HIGH) mode. EQ can be adjusted either by calling the PAN/EQ screen and using the graphic knobs, or by using the physical controllers in the Selected Channel section. ■ EQ Control via the PAN/EQ Screen Adjusting equalization via the PAN/EQ screen. 1 Use the Layer section, [INPUT SEL], [SEL], and [STEREO SEL] keys to select the channel for which EQ is to be controlled. 2 Press the Selected Channel section [PAN/ EQ] key so that its indicator lights. Press Selected Channel knob 2, 3, or 4 and the PAN/EQ screen will appear. 3 Press the Display section [F3] key, or press the [PAN/EQ] key as many times as necessary until the EQ/Att. page appears. BA C D E F G H The EQ/Att. page includes the following items. 1 EQ ON/OFF button Switches the EQ on/off. B ATT. (Attenuation) knob Attenuates the signal immediately before the EQ stage over a range of -96 to 12.0 dB. This is used mainly to prevent the signal from clipping when you use the EQ to boost a specific frequency region. C TYPE field Selects the EQ algorithm type. When the TYPE I button is on the same EQ algorithm that was used in the 02R is selected. The TYPE II button selects the latest EQ algorithm which provides minimum inter-band interference. TYPE II can only be selected for the track channels, stereo output channels, and bus master channels. D Response curve Graphically indicates the approximate response of the EQ. E Output meter Indicates the level of the signal after it has passed through the EQ. 16 F Q knobs Specify the Q (steepness) at which each band (HIGH, HI-MID, LO-MID, LOW) will be boosted or cut. The range is 10-0.10, and higher settings will produce a steeper curve. G F (Frequency) knobs Specify the center frequency of the boost/cut, over a range of 21.2 Hz-20.0 kHz. H G (Gain) knobs Specify the amount of boost/cut, over a range of -18.0 dB to +18.0 dB. Pan, EQ, and Dynamics Processing 4 To switch the EQ on, move the cursor to the EQ ON/OFF button and press the [ENTER] key. 5 When working on a track channel, stereo output channel, or bus master channel, the EQ type can be selected via the TYPE field.
