5.
If none of the preset memories contains the
settings you need, you can change the fol-
lowing parameters by first pressing the
[ENTER/SELECT] button and then using the
[CURSOR÷VALUE] dial.
Write User
This function allows you to save the settings you
made on the “Equalizer” page.
1.
Press the [WRITE] button.
2.
Rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to select
“YES”, then press the [ENTER/SELECT] but-
ton to save the current settings.
The display shows a confirmation message.
If you don’t want to define the current settings as
the default state, rotate the [CURSOR÷VALUE] dial to
select “NO”, then press the [ENTER/SELECT] button.
The BK-5 then returns to the “Equalizer” page.
NOTE
There is only one “User” memory for your own settings. By
saving new settings, you therefore overwrite the previous
ones.
NOTE
When you switch on the BK-5, it automatically loads the
“User” settings.
Parameter Setting range Explanation
Level 0~127 Use this parameter to set
the equalizer’s input
level. This may be neces-
sary when the level of
the input signals is so
high that the sound dis-
torts.
NOTE
Do not set this param-
eter to “0” if the equal-
izer is switched on,
because doing so
means that the key-
board parts, SMF song/
rhythm is/are no
longer audible.
Gain –9~0~9dB Use this parameter to
correct the level at the
equalizer’s outputs. If
the settings of the
remaining parameters
lead to a significantly
lower level, select a posi-
tive value. If your set-
tings lead to a
significantly higher level,
select a negative value.
“0” means that the level
is neither boosted nor
attenuated.
High
Frequency
2000~
12000Hz
Allows you to set the
cutoff frequency of the
high band (this is a
shelving filter).
High Gain –15~15dB Use this parameter to set
the level of the selected
“High” frequency. Posi-
tive values boost
(increase the volume of)
that frequency band,
negative values cut
(attenuate) it.
Mid Fre-
quency
200~8000Hz Allows you to set the
cutoff frequency of the
middle band (this is a
peaking filter).
Mid Q 0.5, 1, 2, 4, 8 Use this parameter to
specify the width of the
“Mid Frequency” band
that you want to boost
or cut. Smaller values
mean that neighboring
frequencies above/below
that value are also
affected.
Mid Gain –15~15dB Use this parameter to set
the level of the selected
“Mid” frequency.
Low Fre-
quency
50, 80, 100,
150, 200, 250,
300, 400Hz
Allows you to set the
cutoff frequency of the
low band (this is a shelv-
ing filter).
Low Gain –15~15dB Use this parameter to set
the level of the selected
“Low” frequency.
