Alesis DEQ830 User Manual

 

One important note, though: Proportional Gain Memory is only 

temporary. If  you run one or more bands “past” the +/-12 dB 

limit and then you exit Edit mode for any reason (such as to store 

the program), the gain value of  those bands will be remembered as 

+/-12 dB (whichever was the value that was last reached for those 

bands).  

 

 

There will be times when the Relative Gain display will not go all 

of  the way up or down to a value of  24. This is because the 

DEQ830 takes into account the gain setting of  all of  the bands 

when an Edit Group is formed. If  the highest gain setting of  any 

band in the Edit Group is + 6 dB, then from there down to -12 dB 

is only 18 dB. So this is the largest number you will see in the 

Relative Gain display if  you run the relative gain value all the way 

down (see fig. 3 and 4).
