P AGE 2 OVERVIEW: Continued type BASS and TREBLE controls are combined with a passive style MID to produce a powerful string of musically interactive and comprehensive tone controls. If even further tweaking is desired, we have included a 3 Band Semi-Parametric Equalizer that covers frequencies between 30Hz and 12Khz. This in-line EQ assures that a[...]

P AGE 3 HELPFUL HINTS: (Continued) and boost these frequencies when the control is set above 12:00. The MID works like a normal passive control and boosts a broad band of frequencies as it is increased. 5.
