Purpose
High Boost 1
High-pass frequency components are
emphasized. This configuration is effective
for audio that contains low-pass frequency
components.
High Boost 2
High-pass frequency components are
emphasized. This configuration provides
characteristics that halve the low-pass
attenuation level of High Boost 1.
Formant Pass
This configuration attenuates frequency
components outside the audio band, thus
providing legible characteristics.
Bass Boost 1
Low-pass frequency components are
emphasized. This configuration is effective
for audio that contains high-pass frequency
components.
Bass Boost 2
Low-pass frequency components are
emphasized. This configuration provides
characteristics that further emphasize the low-
passband, compared with Bass Boost 1.
