Noob Question

Hello,

I have a Pioneer deck and when I am adjusting my HPF or LPF I go left or right on the graph to change the freq levels. I can also adjust up and down. What does the up and down adjustment do? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

Thanks in advance.

Anyone?

im familiar with pioneer head units but have no idea what you are trying to describe.........the only thing i can think of is the adjustment that changes the slope of the eq curve........better description?

Up and down on the lpf selects the subwoofer level on mine.

K, on my LPF setting on my deck I can move the knob left or right to change the freq from say 80 hz to 63 hz ect... I can also move the knob up and down and when I do this the display says +1 +2 if I push up or -1 -2 ect if I push the knob down. At first I thought this was my bass boost but it has no effect on the bass boost. I just don't know what this does. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

It does appear to change the slope of the curve on the graph. What effect does this have on the sound?

are you talkin about the subwoofer settings?

I'm gonna guess it's also the slope of the EQ curve, so you select frequency and then select how many decibels to boost or cut that frequency by... but don't go off of what i say alone

amplitude on sub preouts?

The slope of the eq curve would make sense since the slope does change as I make the adjustment. What does this do? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif

since you cant seem to describe it too well to us why dont you read your user manual? thats how i learned about my decks.....i dont know which unit you have but pioneers can have a lot of eq adjustments

like i stated above, up down selects subwoofer level.

it changes the frequencies that are filtered out........narrow steep curve cuts out the low and high ends of the curve........wide rounded curve gives you more of all the frequencies

im tired and not thinking clearly so someone correct me if i fvcked this up
