Description of the Basic Modes
Program mode
When this manual refers to Program mode, we mean the very top
level of functionality of the DEQ230. Program mode is where you
are when it is possible to use the [DOWN/UP] buttons to select
between the different programs that reside in the unit. In this
mode, you have access to the 30 Preset programs and 30 User
programs.
A Program consists of all of the settings on the front panel, with
the exception of the status of the [BYPASS] button. The things
stored in memory and recalled when you select a program are:
• The gain settings of all 30 bands for both channel A and
channel B
• The status of the [LINK/EXIT] button
• The gain settings for all 30 bands of channel B, even if the
Link function is active. They are merely "hidden" by the Link
function.
• The individual Channel Level settings for channels A and B
If the DEQ230 has been in some other mode, pushing the
[LINK/EXIT] button will return it to Program mode. If you see
a dot to the right of the Program number LEDs, that means the
program has been edited. Be certain to save any changes you've
made that you would like to keep! To learn how to Store an edited
program, turn to page 38.
Edit mode
While in Program mode, if you push one of the [BAND
SELECT] buttons the unit will enter Edit mode. You can tell you
are in Edit mode when you see one or more of the LEDs above
the [BAND SELECT] buttons blinking. Whichever bands have a
blinking LED are the ones that will be boosted or cut when you
use the [DOWN] and [UP] buttons.
After you have edited a frequency or an Edit Group (a group of
frequencies), if you push the [LINK/EXIT] button you will be
returned to Program mode. If you made any changes, you will see
a dot to the right of the Program number LEDs. But be certain to
save any changes you've made that you would like to keep! That is
where Store mode comes in.
Store mode
Pressing the [STORE] button takes you into Store mode. From
here you can decide which of the 30 User Programs will become
the new location for the edited program. You may also instruct the
DEQ230 to copy the settings from Channel A to Channel B
during the Store process. For information on how to perform
either of these procedures, see page 38.
P
ressing the [DOWN/UP]
buttons at the same time will
reset the band you have
selected to 0 dB.
