A device that permits the precise control of specific frequency ranges Examples are: Graphic, Parametric, Notch Filter, Cut only
In sports such as football, an equalizer is a goal or a point that makes the scores of the two teams equal
An effect, often built into amps, that lets you boost or cut certain bands of the frequency spectrum, thus changing the tone See Gadgets & Gizmos, July/Aug '93
A user-adjustable device or circuit that modifies the frequency response of a signal passing through it
A device which allows attenuation or emphasis of selected frequencies in the audio spectrum Equalizers usually contain many bands to allow the user a fine degree of frequency control over the sound
The signal processing device used to modify the frequency response of an audio signal So called because the first such devices were used to correct, or "equalize," the losses in a transmission line
"Tone" controls This can be as simple as one rotary knob to a very complex 1/6th octave equalization device Most Mixers have three or four bands of equalization (Low, Mid High, or Low, Low-Mid High Mid and High) Better consoles allow the two mid bands to "sweep " The operator can adjust the actual frequency of the equalization point Better still is Parametric equalization, where the operator can adjust gain, frequency and with of the band which is to be altered
Any device for equalizing the pull of electromagnets; also, a conductor of low resistance joining the armature ends of the series field coils of dynamos connected in parallel
A multi-band audio bandpass filter having individual gain or attenuation controls for each band Adjusting the controls shapes the overall frequency response to add emphasis or reduction of various signal frequencies, controlling the character of the overall sound result Essentially a multi-band tone control
A network that corrects a circuit's transmission characteristics It may correct for gain-slope (nonlinear frequency response) or for delay distortion
