Flat: Flat EQ settings. The gain of each frequency is set to 0dB. Powerful: Powerful EQ settings in which all frequency sounds are emphasized. This can be used to boost the music for parties, etc. Mellow: Soft and mellow EQ settings in which high-frequency bands are reduced slightly. Bright: EQ setting for boosting the level of the high frequencies, making the sound brighter. With Subwoofer: Custom EQ settings in which low-frequency bands are reduced. This is an optimum setting for using this instrument along with a subwoofer, such as the KS-SW100 (sold separately). User1-30: Your own custom EQ settings saved in step 5. 3 Use the Cursor buttons [][][E][F] to move the cursor to the Gain row, then adjust the GAIN level to boost or cut each of the five bands. Use the [2 ]-[6 ] buttons, [+/YES] [-/NO] buttons, or the Data dial to adjust the level. Using the [7 ] (Total Gain Adjust) button lets you boost or cut all the five bands at the same time. 4 If desired, adjust the Q (bandwidth) and the Frequency (center frequency) of each band. To adjust the bandwidth (also called "Shape" or "Q"), use the Cursor buttons [][][E][F] to move the cursor to the Q row, then use the [3 ]-[5 ] buttons. The higher the value of Q, the narrower the band width. To adjust the Frequency (center frequency), use the Cursor buttons [][][E][F] to move the cursor to the Frequency row, then use the [2 ]-[6 ] buttons. The available Frequency range is different for each band. 5 Press the [8 ] (Save) button to carry out the Store operation. To enter the name, call up the Name operation with the [6 ] (Rename) buttons, name the settings as desired, and then press the [8 ] (OK) button to actually save your settings as a User Master EQ Type, which can be called up using instruction steps 1 to 2 above. Editing Master Compressor Parameters Compressor is a processor commonly used to limit and compress the dynamics (softness/loudness) of an audio signal. For signals that vary widely in dynamics, such as vocals and guitar parts, it "squeezes" the dynamic range, effectively making soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer. When used with gain to boost the overall level, this creates a more powerful, more consistently high-level sound. 8 This instrument features the Master Compressor applied to the entire sound of this instrument. Although the preset Master Compressor settings are provided, you can create and save your original Master Compressor by adjusting the related parameters. NOTE Master Compressor cannot be applied to audio playback or the metronome sound. Mixer Displays the Gain Reduction (compressed level) and Output level.
