2. In the GEQ field or the EFFECT field, press the rack in which you mounted the GEQ.

The GEQ popup window will appear, allowing you to edit the GEQ parameters.

NOTE

The popup windows for the 31BandGEQ and the Flex15GEQ are nearly identical. However, the

Flex15GEQ individually displays two GEQ units (A and B) mounted in a single rack.

1 Rack select tabs

Switch among GEQ 1–8, among GEQ 9–16 or among EFFECT1–8. For a rack in which a Flex 15

GEQ is mounted, the tabs will be split as xA and xB (x is the rack number).

2 INPUT PATCH button

Opens the CH SELECT popup window, in which you can select the input source of the rack. The

operating procedure is the same as for the INPUT PATCH button in the GEQ field.

3 OUTPUT PATCH button

Opens the CH SELECT popup window, enabling you to select the output destination of the rack.

The operating procedure is the same as for the OUTPUT PATCH button in the GEQ field.

4 GEQ LINK button

Links adjacent GEQ units.

In the case of a 31bandGEQ, the GEQ units in adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered racks will

be linked. In the case of a Flex15GEQ, the GEQ(A) and GEQ(B) within the same rack will be

linked.

NOTE

The GEQ LINK button is shown only if linking is possible.

5 FLAT button

Returns all bands of the currently selected GEQ to 0 dB.

6 GEQ ON/OFF button

Switches the currently-selected GEQ on or off.

3. If you are using a stereo source, link the two GEQ units.

You will be able to use the GEQ LINK button if you have selected a 31BandGEQ or Flex15GEQ

for adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered racks. When you turn this button on, the following

popup window will appear. To enable linking, press any button other than CANCEL. The popup

window contains the following items.

1 GEQ x➞y button (“x” and “y” are the rack number, or the rack number and

alphabetical character A or B)

The parameters of “x” will be copied to “y,” and then linked.

2 GEQ y➞x button

The parameters of “y” will be copied to “x,” and then linked.

3 RESET BOTH button

The parameters of both will be initialized, and then linked.

4 CANCEL button

Cancels the link and closes the popup window.

When you link GEQ units, a symbol will appear in the GEQ field to indicate the linked status.

4. Press the GEQ ON/OFF button to turn the GEQ on.

After you have turned the GEQ on, adjust the bands of the GEQ.

For details on GEQ operations, refer to the following section “Using the 31BandGEQ” on

page 120, or “Using the Flex15GEQ” on page 121.

NOTE

You can view the input and output levels of the GEQ in the rack in the GEQ field.
