This is where you will find some of the features that govern the
way the DEQ830 operates in the other modes. They are what you
would call “global” settings, in that their status is not stored with a
program. No matter which program you call up, these settings will
not change.

of each function, as shown in
the “Displayed” column in
the table on this page.
Press the [UTILITY] button to access Utility mode. Pressing it
repeatedly will cycle through all of the functions that you may edit
in this mode. An alternate selection method is to press and hold

Numerical LED Display will change to show the value of the
selected function. In each mode, you can change the value by
turning the [VALUE] encoder. The following pages will describe
what each function does.
Master Level (+/- 6 dB)
The Master Level function is one way to customize the DEQ830
to your environment. If the equipment in your setup tends to send
very hot signals, you can use this function to prevent the output of
the DEQ830 from clipping.
