Each of the five bands in the 5-Band Parametric EQ has a width control that can alter the width of the frequency 

band in 

. The Width equalizer control adjusts the bandwidth of individual octaves and changes the range 

(higher or lower) that the frequency will be heard at. The width is the approximate range of frequencies that will 

be affected when the gain of that band is boosted or reduced. (e.g., if a band has a 

 of 1000Hz, a width of 

two octaves and a 

 of +6dB, than a boost will be applied to the frequencies between 500Hz and 2000Hz and 

will peak at 6dB at 1000Hz.)

Windows Media Audio (WMA) is a compressed audio format created by Microsoft as an alternative to MP3. The 

WMA codec offers greater file compression than the MP3 codec, enabling storage of more digital audio tracks in the 

same amount of space when compared to MP3s.
