Graphic Equalizer modules, press the Preamp button until the desired EQ module is flashing. The display will look something like this:
The display is now telling you three things about the Graphic EQ module:
1. This is showing that the type of effect you are about to edit is the 10 Band Graphic EQ, and that the effect is on. The number 1 icon before
the word “on” indicates that in order to access the on/off parameter, you must press the number 1 button. The status can then be
changed by rotating the Data Wheel.
2. This is the default setting for the Graphic EQ. The default shown here is factory default 10 (F10)which is a Punch setting. The number 4
icon which precedes the F10 value, indicates that in order to access the default parameter, you must press the number 4 button. The
default can then be changed by rotating the Data Wheel.See page 22 for a complete list of defaults.
3. The bottom corner of the display is showing that there are 5 pages of parameters associated with the Graphic EQ, and that you are on the
first of these five pages. The Next button can be used to access page 2 of the Graphic EQ parameters.
Once you have accessed page 2 of the Graphic EQ, the display will look something like this:
The display it now telling you three more things about the Graphic EQ parameters.
1. This parameter is the volume Level of the Graphic EQ. The number 1 icon is telling you that in order to access the Graphic EQ Level, you
must press the number 1 button. You can then adjust the Level by rotating the Data Wheel.
2. This is the Phase parameter of the Graphic EQ. The phase options are in phase and 180 degrees out of phase. The number 3 icon is
telling you that in order to access the Phase parameter, you must press the number 3 button. You can then change the Phase by rotating
the Data Wheel.

the Next Page button will advance you to the third page of EQ parameters.
