10-band graphic equalizer with display and memory for four presets
With the Boss EQ-200 Graphic Equalizer, the Japanese effects company has launched a 10-band equalizer in a handy pedal format. With three selectable frequency responses and 15 dB boost or cut per frequency band, the Graphic Equalizer allows you to adjust the sound to your own ideas. The practical display offers a perfect overview of the selected equalizer curve. The EQ-200 also provides two channels that can be used in serial, parallel or stereo link mode. Once found, setups can be stored in one of four memory locations. Last but not least, the Boss EQ-200 Graphic Equalizer offers control via MIDI or optionally available foot switches and expression pedals.
The Boss EQ-200 Graphic Equalizer:
Graphic equalizer for electric guitar and electric bass
AD/DA conversion with 32 bit and 96 kHz
DSP with 32-bit floating point processing
Ten frequency bands with +/- 15 dB boost or cut each
Three selectable frequency responses (30 Hz to 12.8 kHz, 32 Hz to 16 kHz or 28 Hz to 14 kHz)
Two channels (serial, parallel or stereo link mode)
After long research and a round of tips from pros, I decided an EQ could help me refining the tones and finding the "sweet spot" for my rig.
This unit has several advantages over the alternatives, mostly the number of frequency sliders and the 4 slot memory (+ the manual, which allows for 5 EQ setups to be reached quickly).
It responds perfectly, to every slight change. The LCD screen shows the curve interactively, which is very helpful for the configuration.
The main use I will initially have for it includes: tweaking the sound of humbuckers (to single coilish) an P90s. To play around, basically...
As a booster, with a memory patch adjusted for that purpose.
Lastly, it is not exclusive for guitar, as the the spectrum includes lower and higher cuts. So it is a good tool for recording other instruments as bass or piano, and I reckon It could be handy to experiment with voice recording as well.
