EQ and DynamicsEach input channel and output channel on a CL series console provides a four-band EQ and 
dynamics.
EQ can be used on all input channels and all output channels. An attenuator is provided 
immediately before the EQ, allowing you to attenuate the level of the input signal so that the 
GAIN setting for EQ will not cause the signal to clip. Input channels also provide a high-pass 
filter that is independent of the EQ.
Input channels provide two dynamics...
