Key Functions Master/Slave (unit link) mode Constant Q and proportional Q modes Each frequency band consists essentially of two fully parametric equalizers: one for The PQ offers a Master/Slave mode for surround applications or subgroup processing, constant Q mode and one for proportional (or variable) Q mode, selectable per band. in which the settings on the master unit are precisely duplicated on the slave units. The PQ is the fi rst equalizer to offer both modes, endowing it with double equa

Key Functions Motorized potentiometers Bandwidth All of the PQ‘s potentiometers are motorized to accommodate the channel link and Bandwidth is adjustable between 0.1 and 3.7 Q in proportional Q mode and between unit link functions. The adjustment range of the Frequency, Bandwidth and Amplitude 0.9 and 15 Q in constant Q mode. The extremely high maximum bandwidth in constant potentiometers is evenly dispersed throughout the 300-degree movement area, Q mode enables tight, selective control in p
