[EQ EDIT] Keys
The
[EQ EDIT]
keys enable you to select channels for parameter edit-
ing.
When you press an
[EQ EDIT]
key, the VM200 displays the
EQ EDIT
function page for the selected channel (for example, EQ EDIT CH2).
This function page includes parameters that control a four-band
parametric equalizer. The bands are LO, LO-MID, HI-MID, and HI.
You can adjust the equalization by rotating the [GAIN], [FREQ], and
[Q] controls for each band.
For more information, refer to the table below, which describes the
function of the
[EQ EDIT]
key in different Fader Modes.

EQ Section Rotary Controls
The VM200 EQ section is horizontally subdivided into four sections:
EQ-LO, EQ/LO-MID, EQ/HI-MID, and EQ HI.
Each band features three knobs labelled Gain, Freq, and Q that con-
trol the parametric equalizer in EQ Edit mode.
The Gain rotary control sets the gain of the input preamps.
The Freq rotary control specifies the frequency.
The Q rotary controls adjust the selectivity of a filter. A narrow fre-
quency band indicates a high Q value; a wide frequency band indi-
cates a low Q values. (In the response curve, notice how a bell-shaped
curve grows wider as Q decreases.)
However, like many VM200 controls, in other operational modes the
EQ section knobs serve multiple purposes. For example, in Channel
Edit mode, the
[FREQ]
and
[Q]
knobs control the channels pan posi-
tion.
