Using the
Graphic
Equalizer
(con,inued)
Characteristics of each
frequency
range
The following
are examples
of typical applications
with
regards to
the equalizer band settings
These
statements
are used
in
a
general
manner
of speaking
and
may not hold true in all cases
Es-Ha
Deep bass range
The
sounds of the bass,
drums, etc. are dramatically
strengthened
lieox4
Bass range
This range
provides
the sounds of the saxophone,
trombone,
etc
sounds can be clarified,
if indistinct, by
reducing this setting.
I400
HA
Mid-bass range
(the
fundamental
range
lor
music)
This control can be used to
reinforce the sounds of
male vocals,
etc.
F
kHn
Mid-range
This control can
be used to add clear
presence
and
realism to
female vocals, etc
Examples
of applications
By using the seven band-level controls, various corrections
of the
sound
field and tone
quality
are
possible.
For
creation
of a sound field in the listening
foom.
Correcting
room acoustics
Each
room has its
own
particular
effects on
frequency
characteristics.
These effects are determined by a
number
of conditions, such as
room
size,
furnishings, etc.
The 7 separate divisions of the band
level
control
on thls unit
make it
possible
to selectively correct only
the frequency
ranges necessary to suit the conditions of each
listening
room
An example ol
room
acoustics correction
ln
order
to correct the
peaks
and dips
in
bass sounds
caus-
ed by
reflection, reduce the 160 Hz level 4-6 dB and then,
raise
the level of sounds below 63 Hz
and above 6.3 kHz
vicinity slightly.

Mid.high range
This
range
provides

and color variations
to stringed
in-
struments, etc
FskHz]
Treble range
This control can be used to brighten the sounds
ol the llute and
similar
instruments. lt
sounds seem
too
jarring,
a softness
can be
applied
by
reducing
the setting.
F6
kHa
Super-treble range
This
control can be used
provide
an extra
measure
of delicate
vibration
to the sounds of the cymbals, triangle, etc.
lf tape
"hiss"
noises are annoying, this control's setting can be
reduced
to alleviate
such
noises.
For
editing
"live"
recordings made on tape,
etc.
Cutting the
noise
from
live
recording tapes
Live tapes recorded outdoors
generally
contain
popping
noises
caused by wind and various other
noises
from the sur-
rounding
area. ln order to effectively eliminate wind noise,
cut bass
sounds below 63
Hz and raise the level
of sounds
in
the 400 Hz range Then
control sounds
made by birds, etc.,
with a 6 3 kHz adjustment.
For
creation ol unique,
individually
per-
sonalized
sounds.
Producing
clear vocals
For female
vocals, raise the level
of
the I kHz-2
5 kHz
range
by 2-4
dB
To rectify
omission, raise the level of the
6.3 kHz vicinity
slightly.
Male vocals
can be improved by raising the level of the 400
Hz-2.5
kHz range
Below is
an example of a lemale vocai
correction.
