EQ
Pressing in any of the effects pages will give you access to the EQ functions. The EQ
section of the two multi-effects channels is a four band EQ offering lowpass control over a low
frequency, two bandpass mid frequencies and a highpass high frequency control. I.e.:
LP
BP1
BP2
HP

You may set the centre frequency and the gain for each of the four channels (on the two mid
frequency ranges, you may also set the width of the EQ effect).

The frequency of each of the four bands is variable and may overlap if you wish and you may
selectively boost these frequencies if you wish to enhance certain aspects of the sound.
Furthermore, you can modulate the frequencies of either of the two mid range sections to
create auto-wah effects such as you find on a wah-wah pedal. It is also possible to create
synthesiser filter sweep effects.
The EQ screen looks something like this:
The parameters are:
This sets the centre frequency for the four bands of EQ, LOW, MID1, MID2
and HIGH. For Khz frequencies, the field is expressed as
n
k

Hz. For example,
a setting of 6k3Hz represents a setting of 6.3kHz.
This sets the level of the four frequencies.
