Just read this section for the unique things to be aware of in the DEQ 60.We know you know how to use a realtime analyzer (Rane makes a great one, the RA 30), but using PERFECT-Qmode will make that job a lot easier. Since there is no interaction between filters, the multiple adjustments through all thebands just to get the analyzer to read flat is a thing of the past. One pass should do the trick. Then use the TONE controlsor CUT FILTERS for general sweetening. We know your sound is important and your time is valuable.If you want to compare the sound of your old (non-Rane) EQ to this one, and you are used to the way the slidersinteract, then use PROPORTIONAL-Q mode.The A and B switches are like memories or control assigns. Normal stereo use would set the top row A (Left), and thebottom row to B (Right). But if you are running in stereo, and both sides use the same EQ curve, you can set both switchesto A. Now the top EQ curve controls both left and right channels. Switching these to B will use the bottom EQ curve forboth channels. This is great for switching EQ when a source changes. Just be aware of where these switches are, anunassigned EQ row will have no audible effect. These switches also affect the CUT FILTERS, TONE CONTROLS, andLEVELS.The Channel BYPASS switches have two modes, set by the rear panel switch. When set to FILTERS, the BYPASSswitch only bypasses the EQ, TONE and CUT FILTERS. The LEVEL controls and other switches remain active. Whenset to ALL, the BYPASS switches ignore everything including the LEVEL controls.You have several connector choices on the rear. However, use only ONE type of INPUT on each Channel. These Inputsdo not sum. But you may use any combination of OUTPUTS simultaneously if desired. Polarity convention on the XLRjacks is pin 2 positive, pin 3 negative and pin 1 shield (chassis ground).
