These slide potentiometers work only whenî€ theî€ Equalizer On/Off
Switch S3î€ is inî€ theî€ onî€ position. Theî€ potentiometers control
theî€ outputî€ ofî€ 8î€ bandpass filters. Theî€ center frequency ofî€ these
filters areî€ 50î€ Hz, 100î€ Hz, 200î€ Hz, 400î€ Hz, 800î€ Hz, 1600î€ Hz,
2400î€ Hz andî€ 3200î€ HZ. Theî€ scale,î€ forî€ setting these potentiometers,
is calibrated betweenî€ -16î€ db.î€ toî€ +î€ 16î€ dB.î€ Pushing aî€ potentiometer
forwardî€ (up)î€ willî€ increaseî€ theî€ outputî€ ofî€ theî€ equalizer withinî€ the
bandpass ofî€ theî€ filterî€ whose slide potentiometerî€ is changed.
Pushing aî€ potentiometerî€ backwardî€ (down)î€ willî€ decreaseî€ the
outputî€ ofî€ theî€ equalizer withinî€ theî€ bandpass ofî€ theî€ filterî€ whose
slide potentiometerî€ is changed. Settingî€ allî€ 8î€ potentiometers atî€ the
zero marking willî€ produce audioî€ atî€ aboutî€ theî€ same outputî€ level
as whenî€ theî€ Equalizer On/Offî€ Switch S3î€ (3)î€ is inî€ theî€ offî€ position.
Adjusting theî€ equalizer 50î€ Hz, 100î€ Hz andî€ 200î€ Hz slide pots
affects theî€ heaviness /î€ weightî€ ofî€ theî€ audio. Adjusting theî€ equalizer
400î€ Hz andî€ î€ 800î€ Hz slide pots affects theî€ warmthî€ ofî€ theî€ audio.
Adjusting theî€ equalizer 1600î€ Hz, 2400î€ Hz andî€ 3200î€ Hz slide
pots affects theî€ clarity andî€ presenceî€ ofî€ theî€ audio.
This switchî€ turns theî€ noise gateî€ onî€ andî€ off.î€ Whenî€ theî€ noise
gateî€ is offî€ changing theî€ gateî€ delay orî€ level controls has
noî€ effect onî€ theî€ audio.î€ Whenî€ theî€ noise gateî€ is offî€ audioî€ is
always beingî€ passedî€ (gated)î€ throughî€ theî€ noise gateî€ î€ toî€ theî€ output.
This LEDî€ is used toî€ helpî€ properly adjust theî€ noise gateî€ level
control andî€ toî€ indicate whenî€ audioî€ is beingî€ sent (gated)î€ toî€ the
output. Theî€ LEDî€ beingî€ onî€ (green)î€ indicates thatî€ audioî€ is being
gatedî€ throughî€ theî€ unitî€ toî€ theî€ output. Theî€ LEDî€ beingî€ offî€ indicates
thatî€ audioî€ î€ is notî€ beingî€ passedî€ (gated)î€ throughî€ toî€ theî€ output.
Whenî€ theî€ Noise Gateî€ Onî€ /î€ Offî€ Switch (5)î€ is inî€ theî€ offî€ position the
noise gateî€ LEDî€ is on.
