Using the master effect
The master effect is applied to the overall sound from the stereo out. You can use it separately from the effects of
FX1 and FX2. The effects you can use as the master effect are a 4 band equalizer and compressor. With these
effects you can add the final touches to the sound.
01. In the EFFECT mode, press the [F4] (MASTER) key.
The MASTER page will be displayed. In the MASTER page, you can edit the master effect.
02. To use the 4 band EQ, select ON in the EQ field.
03. To use the compressor, select ON in the Compressor field.
Note: If you use neither effects, set these fields to OFF.
Editing the master effects
In this section, you will learn how to edit the master effects in details.
4 band EQ
This is the 4 band EQ (equalizer), which consists of two shelving type Eqs for a high
frequency and a low frequency and a 2 band parametric EQ. With the equalizers,
you can boost or lower a specific frequency to control the sound from the stereo out.
H field, L field
You can set the frequency and the gain of the equalizers for high frequency (H) and low frequency (L). You can
set the frequency in the left field and the gain in the right field.
If you increase the gain in the H field, you can boost the frequency that is higher than the selected frequency.
If you lower the gain, you can lower the level of the frequency that is higher than the selected frequency.
If you increase the gain in the L field, you can boost the frequency lower than the selected frequency. If you
lower the gain, you can lower the level of the frequency lower than the selected frequency.
1 field, 2 field
You can set the parametric equalizer, which can control the sound around the selected frequency.
The field has the settings for frequency, gain and Q (from the left).
If you increase the gain, you can boost the sound around the selected frequency. If you lower the gain, you can
lower the level of the sound around the selected frequency.
Q setting determines how to change the sound around the selected frequency when you change the gain
setting. If you set this value larger, only the narrow range around the selected frequency will be changed. As
you lower the value, the range will be wider.
Compressor
This effect compresses the signal level that exceeds the selected level to make the volume even as a whole.
The fields are the same as those of the COMPRESSOR, which is selected in the FX1 and 2.
