Yamaha PSR-S710 Reference Guide

Equalizer (also called “EQ”) is a sound processor that divides the frequency spectrum into multiple bands 
that can be boosted or cut as required to tailor the overall frequency response. Usually an equalizer is used to 
correct the sound from speakers to match the special character of the room. For example, you can cut some of 
the low range frequencies when playing in large spaces where the sound is too “boomy,” or boost the high 
frequencies in rooms and close spaces where the sound is relatively “dead” and free of echoes.
The instrument possesses a high grade five-band digital EQ. With this function, a final effect—tone control—
can be added to the output of your instrument. You can select one of the five preset EQ settings in the EQ 
display. You can even create your own custom EQ settings by adjusting the frequency bands, and save the 
settings to one of two User Master EQ types.
