Stereo or mono send/recieve? A Rane parametric has five channels.

What does each of the 5 channels have on this Rane unit? It might
be just what I need ...

I re-read your note and I don't think a multi channel parametric is
what you need. You seem to want 6 channels of graphic eq. Each channel
of a parametric contains ONE filter, a very flexible filter, but one
filter nonetheless.
6 Channels of graphic in one rack space is kinda pushing it a bit.

| 2326.5 | bands vs. channels... | AISG::WARNER | It's only work if they make you do it | Wed Apr 25 1990 16:46 | 15 |
| This is confusing -- here's proper terminology:
Channels: number of separate equalizers, each having (usually) one
input and one output
Bands: number of frequency bands for each _channel_
Most parametric EQs have four bands or less. If you need more, it's easiest to
just daisy-chain one into another. It's a waste to tie up all those bands for a
single source if you're not using them all, which you SHOULDN'T! Over-EQ is
probably one of the biggest problems in sound. If you're doing something like
feedback control for live sound, and your really need more than four bands,
patch them together. However, the more you EQ, the more unnatural the sound is
likely to be.
IMHO, of course. Extreme EQ can be used as an effect, of course

| 2326.6 | More detail on "what I'm lookin' for"... | FGVAXX::LAING | Soft-Core Cuddler*Jim Laing*282-1476 | Fri Apr 27 1990 16:47 | 19 |
| Ok, using this terminology, here's what I want:
4 to 6 channels
Each channel of EQ having 2, 3, or 4 bands. That's all ... I just
want a way to do some rough, minor EQing of 4 or 5 sources (in my case,
4 are keyboards (2 'boards each in stereo) and 1 vocal.
The term "GRAPHIC EQ" might be misleading because I don't want 4-6
channels each with lots-a-sliders, does the term GRAPHIC EQ mean an eq
that uses multiple sliders per channel, rather than rotary pots?
BTW, it seems that "what I want" has been done, but not quite to my
satisfaction ... a KORG unit exists with 6 channels, each with 5 to 7
bands of EQ . . . but the frequencey range on these bands is 250Hz for
the lowest band and 4KHz for the highest (I think). Someone in here
mentioned another KORG unit that's 4 2-band EQ's plus some compressing
and/or noise gates ... this one I might check out ...

A fixed band/fixed q eq that used rotary pots instead of sliders
would, in my mind, qualify as a 'graphic' eq. Sure, you have to
imagine the curve, but it's there nonetheless....

The problem is, you want it all in one rack space.
Good luck...
