LTO

relate to the speed with which the Gate closes and opens. The default settings will usually be fine and provide gating that

works transparently, but you can use these settings to optimize the results if you hear any side-effects.

Each gate can be switched in or out of the audio circuit by clicking on the OFF/ON button. The button will turn red when

the Noise Gate is selected.

PARAMETRIC EQUALIZATION (EQ):

5-band full parametric equalization is provided on each of the Input and Output channels. The Center Frequency, Gain

and Bandwidth are all variable. In addition, the UCS PRO allows you to select from a list of different EQ contours.

Freq: The center frequency of each band can be set between approximately 16Hz and 16,000Hz.

Gain: The level at the chosen center frequency can be increased or reduced by 15dB.

Band: This dictates how the frequencies next to the center frequency will be affected during Gain boost or cut. With a

narrow bandwidth (minimum 0.05 octave), frequencies other than the center frequency and its immediate neighbours will

be largely unaltered. With a broad bandwidth (maximum 3 octaves), gain changes will be spread more widely. The effect

can be seen on the PC Editor's real-time graph.

Type: This section allows several types of EQ contour to be applied. Depending on the EQ Type selected, certain para-

meters (Gain, Bandwidth) are automatically set (they become greyed out).

Peaking - This default setting is the traditional parametric mode, allowing gain cut or boost at and around the chosen

center frequency.

LowSh6 - This creates a shelved response with a 6dB/octave slope, with the frequency shift occurring towards the lower

end of the frequency scale. Bandwidth adjustment is disabled in this mode.

LowSh12 - A shelved response as above but with a 12dB/octave slope.

HiSh6 - This creates a shelved response with a 6dB/octave slope, with the frequency shift occurring towards the higher

end of the frequency scale. Bandwidth adjustment is disabled in this mode.

HiSh12 - A shelved response as above but with a 12dB/octave slope.
