EQ (E zone)

The input channel equaliser (EQ) is a four-band sweep parametric EQ (PEQ) that allows

tonal control of the input signal via the parametric EQ section, or E zone, in the input

channel strip. The four bands are treble, hi-mid, lo-mid and bass, with an additional

three shelving modes available for treble and bass. Any combination of the four bands

can be used to control the signal, although only one band can be adjusted in the E zone

at any time.

Each input fast strip contains the EQ on/off switch and quick access buttons for channel

and band selection.

The E zone contains all of the PEQ controls, along with a shelving mode selection button

and another set of band selection buttons.
