Versatile EQ Control:
Yamaha graphic equalizers incorporateactive filters to provide minimum
phase shift and smooth response at any boost or cut setting. The Yamaha
Q2031B offers 31 equalization bands at 1/3rd octave intervals from 20Hz
- 20kHz.
Range Switches: The Yamaha
Q2031B features switchable EQ gain of +/- 6dB or +/- 12dB providing broad
control range, or a norrow, more precise scope of control. The +/- 12dB
range offers wide-range control, essential for broad tonal variation or
feedback control. The +/- 6dB range provides fine control within a narrower
range, well suited for acoustic tuning and subtle response shaping.
2 - Channel Configuration:
The 2RU size Yamaha Q2031B offers completely independent 2 channel control
from input to output with 31 band equalization and variable high-pas filters
for each channel.
Outstanding Audio Performance:
A graphic equalizer's main function is to shape sound without addind unwanted
distortion or noise. The Yamaha Q2031B provides quiet operation with less
than 0.05% THD. Noise is kept to a minimum with levels better than -96dB
on the Q2031B. Yamaha equalizers supply smooth, natural sound that is
even compatible with digital sources.
High Pass Filter: High pass
filters are extremely useful in fighting against low-end boominess, AC
hum, wind noise and preventing sub-sonic components from muddying the
sound as well as wasting amplifier power. The Yamaha Q2031B incorporates
continuous variable high pass filters on both equalizer channels. Providing
12dB of octave rolloff below the desired frequency, the filters can be
independently adjusted with sliders, to any frequency between 20 and 200
Hz.
Balance Inputs / Outputs:
Signal input and output is provided by both balance 1/4" phone jacks
and balance XLR jacks, all rated at +4dB.
Safety Devices:
Independent Peak Indicators, to warn of excessively
high signal levels, light when the output signal reaches 3dB below clipping.
Automatic Muting Circuit
mutes the equalizer's output for approximately 3 seconds
after the power is switched to on, to prevent transients from damaging
amplifiers and speaker systems.
EQ Bypass: EQ on/off switches
provide easy EQ bypass and instant comparison between equalized and unequalized
sound. LED indicators let you know when the EQ is on.
