KAWAI EQ-8 8-CHANNEL PARAMETRIC EQUALIZERS


I have a set of 2 Kawai 8-channel Parametric Equalizer modules.

Each is a compact 1-space rack mount parametric equalizer which allows you
to equalize up
to 8 instruments or channels separately. Wide-range gain capacity permits
controlling of
different levels from keyboards, guitars and microphones. Wide or narrow
tone control by
switching the "Q" function. Broad frequency response (50Hz - 15kHz).
More sensitive tone control can be obtained by linking equalizers together.
High S/N
ration to meet today's highest studio requirements.

Front Panel Controls:

POWER Switch and LED INdicator
8 x GAIN (1,3 CH: L/M/MIC) (2,4~8CH: L/M/H) - These 3-position switches
allow adjusting the
channel gain to match the input level. Channels 1 and 3 substitute a
special MIC position
for higher gain.
8 x Q - Selects from 3 different curves to set to the equalization slope
from the central
frequency to the slope edge
8 x FREQ RANGE (X0.1, X1) - Selects the frequency range to be equalized (0.8
/ 2 / 6)
X1: 500Hz to 15kHz
x0.1: 50Hz to 1.5kHz
8 X FREQ - Selects the frequency point to be equalized (+/-15dB)
8 X LEVEL - Boosts or cuts the level of frequency selected

LINK Operation -
The EQ-8 is normally used as a 8IN/OUT single-device parametric equalizer.
But the individual
equalizers are internally linked in pairs, and can be used for 2-band
equalizers (1&2, 3&4, 5&6, 7&8).
Further "linking" can be done using chain Input/output connections between
equalizers on the rear panel.

Rear Panel Connections:

INPUT (1-8 CH) - 1/4-inch jacks (microphones can be used in channels 1 & 3)
OUTPUT (1-8 CH)- 1/4-inch phone jacks
DC In - plug for AC Adapter
