The Parametric Equalizer is the most direct and powerful tool in the box, giving you surgical control over your frequency response. Unlike a graphic equalizer with fixed frequency bands, a parametric EQ lets you adjust three core parameters:
The Matrix allows you to apply different EQ curves to different channels. This is invaluable for asymmetric rooms where your left speaker interacts with a wall differently than your right speaker. The Convolution Engine
Copy these identical settings to Channel 2 unless you are doing asymmetrical room correction. Step 5: Set the Headroom Compensation (Pre-amp Gain)
Load .wav impulse response files for room correction.
Drop the volume level by an amount equal to (or slightly greater than) your highest EQ boost (e.g., if your highest boost is +4.5dB, set your headroom/pre-amp to -5.0dB ). Step 2: Configuring the Matrix (Parametric EQ)
Because the EQ engine works hand-in-hand with HQPlayer’s proprietary dither and noise-shaping algorithms, the equalization process does not add digital harshness or quantization noise. The Two Paths of HQPlayer Equalization
