ART HQ231 - Equalizador Gráfico de 31 Bandas e Dois Canais

Comments about ART HQ231 Dual Channel 31-Band Equalizer:

I use the HQ 231 for live sound. I do shows where musicians are playing acoustic instruments using mics and DIs. Mainly I've used the HQ231 to EQ the monitor mixes. I never have feedback problems because the feedback circuit shows if a frequency is really hot and about to feed back. The HI and LOW shelving EQs also are great for dialing in the right frequency for making the HI & Low cuts.

It's like a Ferrari, looks beautiful and performs great! You have great flexibility from the 31 bands. There is also the flexibility of balanced or unbalance audio. Great product!

I bought this for my rackmount home stereo system. Having both balanced (XLR,TRS) and unbalanced (RCA) connectors made it easy to connect.

The +/-12dB gain controls in 31 bands were more than enough to flatten the room response. The 1/3 octave controls really help in smoothing out any sharp notches/peaks.

The FDC is actually quite impressive. It acts as a real-time audio spectrum analyzer in that it instantly shows where (at what frequencies) all the power is going. With no signal, the LEDs are all lit normally. As the signal increases, so does the brightness of the appropriate LEDs, but as the signal gets even greater, the unaffected LEDs then begin to dim. A peak signal results in only a few very bright LEDs. Very effective.

My only complaint is that the FDC cannot be turned off. The visual effect can be so mesmerizing that it actually becomes a distraction during social gatherings!

When I first turned this on, I thought it was defective. Then I moved the sliders up from the zero position and it started to come alive and the sound quality improved constantly over and above what I ever expected. It is a good buy and I am extremely happy with it.
