5.0 EQ / PAN / 5.1 / DYNAMICS
The thumbnail area at the top of each channel strip displays an EQ curve, the
Pan position, the 5.1 Surround Pan position, or Dynamics status for that
channel.
The buttons to the left of the thumbnails are used to select between EQ, PAN,
5.1 and Dynamics mode by tapping on the left or right cursor button.
Note: the 5.1 option will only be available when Surround Mode is active in the
console. This feature is only relevant for CL V3 firmware and higher.
5.1 EQ
Every channel in the CL series console has a dedicated Parametric EQ
(PEQ). CL series consoles also have Graphic EQs (GEQs) that can be
assigned (inserted) on input or output channels. 8-Band PEQ can also be
used as an alternative to a GEQ.
Note: assignment of GEQs to channels and mounting of 8-Band PEQs in the
GEQ Rack must be done on the console and cannot be done in StageMix.
5.1.1 EQ Curve in Mixer Window
The EQ curve section on the Mixer Window will show the user whether
a GEQ or 8-Band PEQ is available on any channel. If a GEQ or 8-Band
PEQ is available on a channel in addition to the dedicated 4-Band PEQ,
the user will be able to view the curve for any of these EQs and access
the editing screen for any type of EQ.
Green and blue dots below each EQ curve indicate the types of EQ
available on that channel, the insert position for the GEQ or 8-Band
PEQ, and the type of EQ that is currently displayed for that channel. A
green dot indicates PEQ and a blue dot indicates GEQ. When only the
dedicated 4-Band PEQ is currently available on a channel, no dots will
appear below the curve.
Every channel in a CL console has two insert points and GEQs or 8-
Band PEQs can be inserted into either of these points. A blue or green
dot in the middle of the EQ thumbnail area represents a GEQ or 8-Band
PEQ in Insert 1. A blue or green dot on the right side represents a GEQ
or 8-Band PEQ in Insert 2. The green dot for dedicated 4-Band PEQ will
always be on the left side of the thumbnail area.
