Theres an interactive display that shows you the settings of the four band of EQs. As a default setting, the EQ in the channel is turned off. In each of the CH EDIT screens, you can see the channels current EQ settings presented in graphic form, and can turn all of the channels EQ bands on or off with a single switch. When this concept is applied to the entire recording, the end result is a well blended mix where the individual instruments can be heard and understood.

This way we can focus on the sweet spots of the different instruments and reduce the extraneous material that distorts the clarity of the mix. For example, if we cut at 300Hz on the bass guitar to reduce some of the muddiness and give it some clarity, then we may want to boost the EQ at 300Hz on the electric guitar.

Ideally, EQ is used to give each instrument its own identity in the mix, or in the frequency range. Equalization is the process of manipulating the frequency content of an audio signal in order to change its tonal quality.
