EQUALIZ (Equalizer)
In this mode, you adjust the settings for the Equalizer.
An Equalizer is used to adjust the tonal quality. e SK1/2’s built-in Equalizer con-
sists of 3 bands and a recreation of the unique “tone” control that was part of the
vintage B-3. e Bass and Treble bands are handled by “shelf” equalizers, and the Mid
band is handled by parametric control.
To locate this mode:
uORGAN SECTION
❶ TONE CONTROL
is is a simulated original B-3 TONE CONTROL. Its response is unique, but its
basic response is to gently cut the overall treble above 200Hz.
e setting range is -9 to +9, and it becomes neutral when set at “0”. “-1” corre-
sponds to the maximum of the original B-3 tone control, “-5”, the middle, “-9”, the
minimum. e tone control found on the original B-3, was only available at “minus”
settings, but here you are able to “plus” the settings as well.
uORGAN SECTION, EXTRA VOICE SECTION
❷, ❽ GAIN - BASS
❸, ❾ GAIN - MIDDLE
❹, ❿ GAIN - TREBLE
Adjusts the Boost/Cut of Bass, Mid-range and Treble respectively.
e setting range is -9 to +9. It is flat at 0.
❺, ⓫ FREQUENCY - BASS
❻, ⓬ FREQUENCY - MIDDLE
❼, ⓭ FREQUENCY - TREBLE
Adjusts the central frequency that will be attenuated.
e setting range is 20Hz - 200Hz for BASS, 250Hz - 3.1kHz for MIDDLE, 4.0kHz
- 8.0kHz for TREBLE.
v The sound may distort if gains are raised too high. Adjust accordingly.
NOTE: The parameters in these modes are patch parameters, and are recorded to respective
patches.

THE EFFECTIVE USE OF THE MID-
DLE FREQUENCY
The frequency response of the horn rotor in the
Leslie speaker is not at. It has a peak from 1kHz to
3kHz. This peak is eective in “cutting through” any
ensemble playing.
If you use this organ through line out without a Le-
slie speaker, you can duplicate eect by setting the
FREQUENCY- MIDDLE to approximately 2kHz, and
the GAIN - MIDDLE to “+”.
PATCH PARAMETERS
The equalizer is designed to be a patch parameter
to be actively utilized as a part of sound making
parameter.
Use the Master Equalizer for tonal compensation
to match the performance stage (P. 27).
See “Function mode” (P. 68) for operation details.
