User Manual

The middle sets of band controls let you make a wide variety of equalization adjustments, and
can be switched between lo-shelf, bell, notch, and hi-shelf filtering options.
Bell
Bell filters boost or cut frequencies around a given center point of the bell curve, and
as the name suggests the shape of the curve is like a bell.
Notch
Notch filters allow you to specifically target a very narrow range of frequencies.
For example, removing a mains hum at 50 or 60Hz.
Lo-Shelf
Low shelf filters boost or cut the target frequency at the low end, and every
frequency below it
Hi-Shelf
High shelf filters boost or cut the target frequency at the high end, and every
frequency above it
