Parametric Equalizer In addition to the conventional Graphic Equalizer, this unit has a parametric equalizer, which allows you more precise adjustments. By using each equalizer properly, you can calibrate the unit more thoroughly. Adjustment using this function requires expertise. When to Use Each Function ●●Parametric Equalizer Use this to finely correct or improve the frequency characteristics of the acoustics of the car in order to establish a basis for adjustments. Practiced ears or a measuring equipment may be required to apprehend the problems of the sound field inside the car. ●●Graphic Equalizer Use this to actively create an attractive sound as conventionally. Everybody can easily get the result through trial and error of intuitive operations. Even more effective adjustments are possible when the basis is established by using the Parametric Equalizer. ÑÑAbout the Parametric Equalizer This system allows you to freely control the filter, frequency, Q factor (acuteness) and slope gain at 14 points consisting of 9 points common for front/rear/subwoofer, 2 points for front only, 2 points for rear only, and one point for subwoofer only. NOTE • Configure the Parametric Equalizer to establish the basis for adjustments before making adjustments using the Graphic Equalizer. • The changes made using the Parametric Equalizer are not shown on the Graphic Equalizer screen. • You can check the effects using the Parametric Equalizer ON/OFF key. Controlling Audio About Adjustments If there are unpleasant peaks, you can slide the peaking filter to the left or right and search the frequencies by ear. Studio engineers use this method to make adjustments quickly and efficiently. However, in order to identify peaks and dips of a car audio system, you have to capture the pink noise outputted from the speaker using a microphone and analyze it using a real time analyzer (RTA). From the analysis result, identify the peaks and/or dips that need to be corrected and configure the filters to cancel them. About the Filters of Parametric Equalizer Filters allow you to remove or extract specific sound through signal processing. Filter NOTE • Cutoff frequency is the boundary between the passband and the stopband. The definition of cutoff frequency is a frequency for which the output is -3 dB of the nominal passband value.
