66 Chapter 4 Equalizers<br />
Note: For bands 1 and 5, this changes the slope of the filter.<br />
• Band On/Off buttons: Enable/disable the corresponding band.<br />
• Master Gain slider and field: Sets the overall output level of the signal. Use it after<br />
boosting or cutting individual frequ<strong>en</strong>cy bands.<br />
Linear Phase EQ<br />
The high-quality Linear Phase EQ effect is similar to the Channel EQ, sharing the same<br />
parameters and eight-band layout. The Linear Phase EQ uses a differ<strong>en</strong>t underlying<br />
technology, however, which perfectly preserves the phase of the audio signal. This phase<br />
coher<strong>en</strong>cy is assured, ev<strong>en</strong> wh<strong>en</strong> you apply the wildest EQ curves to the sharpest signal<br />
transi<strong>en</strong>ts.<br />
A further differ<strong>en</strong>ce is that the Linear Phase EQ uses a fixed amount of CPU resources,<br />
regardless of how many bands are active. The Linear Phase EQ also introduces greater<br />
amounts of lat<strong>en</strong>cy. Therefore, it is strongly recomm<strong>en</strong>ded that you use it for mastering<br />
previously recorded audio.<br />
Tip: The parameters of the Channel EQ and Linear Phase EQ are id<strong>en</strong>tical, <strong>en</strong>abling you<br />
to freely copy settings betwe<strong>en</strong> them.<br />
