These slide potentiometers work only whentheEqualizer On/Off Switch S3is intheonposition. Thepotentiometers control theoutputof8bandpass filters. Thecenter frequency ofthese filters are50Hz, 100Hz, 200Hz, 400Hz, 800Hz, 1600Hz, 2400Hz and3200HZ. Thescale,forsetting these potentiometers, is calibrated between-16db.to+16dB.Pushing apotentiometer forward(up)willincreasetheoutputoftheequalizer withinthe bandpass ofthefilterwhose slide potentiometeris changed. Pushing apotentiometerbackward(down)willdecreasethe outputoftheequalizer withinthebandpass ofthefilterwhose slide potentiometeris changed. Settingall8potentiometers atthe zero marking willproduce audioataboutthesame outputlevel as whentheEqualizer On/OffSwitch S3(3)is intheoffposition. Adjusting theequalizer 50Hz, 100Hz and200Hz slide pots affects theheaviness /weightoftheaudio. Adjusting theequalizer 400Hz and800Hz slide pots affects thewarmthoftheaudio. Adjusting theequalizer 1600Hz, 2400Hz and3200Hz slide pots affects theclarity andpresenceoftheaudio.
