About GEQs
This M-5000 is equipped with 32 GEQ (graphic equalizer) systems
(monaural). Any one of them can be congured as
5 31-band GEQ (proportional Q)
5 31-band GEQ (constant Q)
5 8-band PEQ
These are ways in which you can use the systems.
You can insert the 31-band GEQ or 8-band PEQ into input channels
and output buses. There are two types of locations where you can
insert them: INSERT A (before Dynamics and EQ) and INSERT B (after
Dynamics and EQ).
