Page 50 DC1048 Integrated Audio Management Operator’s ManualAppendix III: Parametric Filter Types and Their UsesA wide selection of filter types has been made available under the PEQ sectiosnwhen editing input or output filters. Each filter type will be explained in turn inthe following section.Standard Parametric EQThe standard parametric band has adjustable frequency, ‘Q’ (or Bandwidth) andGain controls. These affect a range of frequencies symmetrically about the centrefrequency as shown in thegraph.Various levels of cut/boost areshown to the left, along withvarious ‘Q’ settings (gainboosts only are shown below).Remember that ‘Q’ is1/Bandwidth, so the higherthe ‘Q’, the lower theBandwidth, and the smallerthe range of frequenciesaffected.
