Introduction  
The graphic equaliser is a vital component in any audio system. The entire signal passes through it and so any  
limitations imposed by the equaliser will compromise the performance of the whole system. For example, an  
indifferently designed equaliser may introduce severe phase distortion, noise and other anomalies related to  
centre frequency accuracy, filter shape and attenuation accuracy which may manifest themselves as an overall  
deterioration in the perceived sound quality of the system. Clearly, this is an unacceptable state of affairs, but  
fortunately your choice to utilise a Klark Teknik graphic equaliser will eliminate these problems, offering you  
unprecedented product performance coupled with the highest filter calibration and reliability standards in  
the industry.  
For many years Klark Teknik has been at the forefront of equaliser design, and have carried our detailed research  
into optimum filter response characteristics, including their sonic performance.  
The Series 300 range of equalisers is a direct result of this research. It should be noted that graphic equalisation  
cannot always overcome all frequency response related problems. There are applications where the ability to cut  
and boost the response at a particular frequency, or over a certain bandwidth other than the equaliser specified  
one, is required to overcome exceptionally difficult response anomalies or narrow band feedback problems.  
When such an instance is encountered, it may be more appropriate to use the greater range of control provided  
by a parametic type equaliser, where the centre frequency, bandwidth and amplitude are all controllable.  
Reliability is also of paramount importance which is why our filters are designed around a technique commonly  
used in computer manufacturing - thick film engineering. This technique has enabled Klark Teknik to build these  
new filter circuits into self-contained packages which are referred to as "MELT". These micro-electronic  
circuits are so consistent and reliable that we are able to warrant those solid state devices for 5 years. This  
type of "fit and forget" technology, already proven all over the world, provides users with products that perform  
brilliantly year after year.  
When using an equaliser remember that the need to use large amounts of booth or that within the equalisation  
curve indicates that there may be something fundamentally wrong with the sound system or room acoustics,  
which should be further investigated and corrected before final equalisation is applied.

1/3 Octave Band Equaliser Filter Curves  
At the heart of any graphic equaliser is the bank of filters used to shape the signal response, and Klark Teknik  
utilise a proprietary filter circuit which replaces the conventional inductor based circuit, at the same time,  
offering several performance advantages. Inductor based circuits are heavy, expensive to produce and suffer  
from low frequency distortion and induced hum. Klark Teknik's proprietary filters on the contrary suffer none  
of these problems, yet offer unequaled phase response and control accuracy with the additional benefits of low  
noise and minimal ripple.

The nature, shape and way in which individual equaliser filters combine, has a profound effect on the control  
provided by the equaliser and on the resulting quality of sound. The majority of applications within the sound  
reinforcement, broadcast and recording fields, require a smooth and continuous equalisation response curve in  
order to correctly contour the overall response characteristics of a sound system, loudspeaker, recording effect  
or audio channel. To achieve this, the individual filters must be capable of combining smoothly together to  
result in a continuous response curve, free from shape discontinuities in orders to avoid unwanted audible peaks  
or anomalies in the final sound.  
In order to offer operational flexibility a variable fader resolution has been  
incorporated i.e. 6 or 12 dB cut or boost. This function ("scale") is combined  
with the bypass switch, which silently removes the graphic equaliser section from  
the signal path. A subsonic 18dB/octave roll off filter (-3dB @ 3Hz) can be  
switched in or out from each of the channels.

Front Panel Functions  
The scale switch selects maximum boost and cut  
for the equaliser of either 6dB or12dB. The centre  
position of this switch performs the bypass function,  
which silently removes the graphic equaliser section  
from the signal path.  
The high quality faders used in this equaliser have an  
oil-damped action for smooth operation and feature a  
centre detent following accurate "flat" setting.  
The power switch is a two pole type,  
isolating both the live and neutral  
conductors. When the power is on,  
a red status LED lights.  
The input level control allows  
the system gain to be up to+6dB  
when in its fully clockwise position,  
and offers full attenuation in  
its anti-clockwise position.  
Low cut filter switch enables a 30Hz subsonic

separate points within the circuitry of the unit, and any one of these  
signals exceeding a threshold, set 3dB below clipping, will cause the  
LED to light. This threshold is set at +19dB, but it must be remembered  
that excessive boost of some frequencies combined with a high average  
input signal, can occasionally cause this level to be exceeded. In this  
event, the input level control should be turned down to correct the problems.  
However, if the input signal itself exceeds +19dBu the input stage will be  
overloaded. If this problem arises, the signal level from the output of the  
preceding piece of equipment must be turned down.  
Rear Panel Functions  
The mains fuse is located in a fuse holder, fitted to the rear panel.  
Always replace with the correct type and rating of fuse, as  
indicated adjacent to the fuse holder.  
Input and output connections are made  
via complementary XLR style sockets.  
Main is supplied via an IEC  
standard 3 pin connector. A  
compatible power cable  
is supplied with the unit.  
The serial number of this unit should be  
quoted in any correspondence concerning

The Use of Graphic Equalisers  
Equalisers may be used for corrective or creative purposes and the Klark Teknik DN360 is applicable in both  
live sound and studio applications.  
For studio use, a pair of 1/3 octave equalisers might typically be used to compensate for deficiencies in the  
control room acoustics and in this instance, the precision allowed by 30 bands is a great advantage. Because  
it is almost impossible to set up an equaliser accurately without first analysing the room response, the centre  
frequencies of the filters have been chosen to correspond with those of the Klark Teknik spectrum analyser,  
the DN6000. In this way the readings can be transferred directly from the analyser to the equaliser.  
It must be stressed however that even a good equaliser doesn't offer a complete solution where the room has  
severe, inherent acoustic problems. For example, standing waves and resonances cannot be made to disappear  
simply by using equalisation. True their effects can be reduced, but in a critical listening environment such as a  
studio control room or concert hall, efforts must be made to minimise these problems at source before  
equalisation is employed. Also, equalisation cannot overcome the lack of sound clarity caused by rooms with  
unduly long reverberation times though they may be able to effect some improvement in the intelligibility.  
On the other hand, the sound company who may well have to set up in different venues night after night have  
little or no control over the acoustics of the buildings and so have to use equalisers to arrive at a compromise  
solution. Depending on the room, some compromises will be more successful than others. Again, effective use  
of the equaliser means employing the services of a spectrum analyser. It is however not always desirable to  
achieve a dead flat room response. For example, applying substantial amounts of bass boost to try and restore  
a weak bottom end is going to use up large amounts of amplifier power and the extra loudspeaker cone  
excursions so caused will rob the system of headroom and may cause distortion. The harmonics produced by  
an amplifier driven into clipping may also damage the high frequency drivers and will at any rate sound  
unpleasant  
Therefore, reducing the low frequency output may produce real advantages by way of improved intelligibility  
and subjective naturalness and this is particularly true of buildings made from concrete or stone where much  
of the bass is reflected rather than absorbed. Equally, rolling off the high frequency end above 5kHz may also  
contribute to a more natural sound. The resulting house curve then is far from flat but may will be the ideal  
compromise. Depending on the individual sound system and the environment, the shape of the optimum  
house curve will vary and a degree of experience is needed in order to achieve the best results. It should also  
be borne in mind that the ideal house curves for pure speech and music will not be the same.

In live sound applications, graphic equalisation is almost always applied separately to the stage monitor of  
foldback system to reduce the level of those frequencies that would otherwise cause feedback problems. These  
problems came about due to peaks in the frequency response curves of the monitor speaker systems, monitor  
positioning, and sound reflected from the stage walls. An analyser is probably best employed to do this  
effectively but many experienced engineers rely on their ears.  
In addition to compensating for room acoustics, equalisation can also be used to counteract some of the  
problems caused by microphone characteristics and positioning or to tailor the response to improve speech  
intelligibility. Also, many speaker systems have a far from flat response, particularly mobile systems that  
have to be positioned in physically convenient places rather than the acoustically ideal ones. When equalising  
the room, these deficiencies are also catered for to a large extent.  
Whatever the application, it is generally better to try to attenuate peaks rather than to attempt to boost the  
surrounding frequencies to the same level, Furthermore, all peaks can be reduced be attenuating their respective  
band but some response dips simply cannot be corrected. An example is crossover cancellation where very  
deep notches may appear covering two or three bands. Attempting to level the response by excessive boosting  
will simply eat up system power and achieve no useful result. Ultimately a dip in the response is not so audibly  
objectionable as a peak and so it may be as well to leave these dips alone or to try and solve the problem at  
source by checking your crossover systems and horn alignment.  
In broadcast studios, graphic equalisers are often used during phone-in shows to help compensate for the  
restricted bandwidth of telephone lines. No equaliser can completely correct the signal in this way as it is  
impossible to boost frequencies that don't exist and telephone lines have a very restricted bandwidth.  
Nevertheless, the improvement in subjective terms can be dramatic.  
Creative uses may include studio work, live or recorded drama and film soundtrack recordings. Voices may  
be harshly filtered to simulate telephone conversation or the tonal characteristics of an instrument may be  
modified to fit in with a particular mix.  
Though other types of equaliser can often to this job, the graphic equaliser is still the easiest to set up and the  
controls give an instant visual presentation of the response curve. In the commercial studio where time is often  
of the essence, this attribute should not be overlooked.

Equalising a Sound System  
When equalising a sound system you should always remember just what it is you are trying to achieve. Two  
fundamental reasons for equalization are:-  
1. To increase the potential gain or power output of the system before feedback.  
2. To improve the naturalness or intelligibility of the sound system.  
In a space with poor acoustics or high levels of background noise, the most natural sound may well not be the  
most intelligible - a compromise must therefore by reached between these two qualities depending on the  
particular application in question - but at the end of the day it doesn’t matter how natural the system sounds if  
no one can understand the sound it puts out!

Sound System Equalisation  
Before beginning to equalise a system, it is a good practice to listen to the “raw” system with speech or music  
programme. If such signals are distorted then stop and rectify them before attempting to equalise. Another good  
pre-equalisation test is to use a slow sine-sweep. This can expose a number of problems such as rattles or  
distortion or poorly controlled room modes and resonances - which pink noise RTA cannot discover. Finally,  
before equalisation, check the coverage of the system over the 2 to 4kHz bank. (If necessary, use the equaliser  
as a band pass filter to produce the desire range). If coverage is poor to begin with then no amount of  
equalisation will overcome this. Again adjustments to the system itself are required. Equalisation is the final  
tuning stage. Generally, a gradual transition between adjacent bands should be aimed for, particularly in studio  
monitoring situations where the maximum difference between bands should only be 3dB or so. A warning bell  
should be ringing if you are using much more than this! This does not mean however that more drastic  
adjustments should not be used - this is very often necessary with sound systems operating in poor or severe  
acoustic environments, but the reason why such a particularly large fader excursion is being used at a given  
frequency should always be carefully considered.  
Once satisfied with the basic system, performance equalisation can begin. If using a real time analyser ensure  
that the microphone is in a sensible position i.e within the coverage area of the system and not in an area where  
strong local acoustics effects might be expected such as within 1 metre of a rear or side wall or in a balcony  
opening.  
16

A good idea is to rotate the measuring microphone in a wide arc or circle round the measuring position and to  
see if any strong interactions occur causing large deviations in response. If necessary, move to another position.  
Also ensure that the ambient noise level is at least 6dB (preferably 10dB) below the signal level you are using.  
Having set up the desired house curve as smoothly as possible, move round and check the response throughout  
the listening area. Good equalisation requires time and patience. Do not forget that some interaction will occur  
between a particular filter and its adjacent bands. A better sound may be produced by adjusting several bands  
rather than by strong cutting just the centre one. Do not forget to pause to talk or play music through the system  
as you go, so that you keep in touch with what the resultant sound quality is like.  
If the Real Time Analyser you are using is the Klark Teknik DN6000 you have a powerful averaging capability  
which means that averaging the response throughout the coverage area becomes very much easier. The  
response displayed by the analyser should also become smoother as local fluctuations are averaged out whilst  
persistent peaks and dips clearly stand out and show where adjustment is truly required.  
DN6000  
Connecting a stage or house microphone into the analyser can be a most instructive exercise - showing up  
any local reflection or acoustic resonance or loudspeaker sidelobes. Generally repositioning the microphone  
or adjusting individual microphone channel equalisation will be needed, rather than adjustment to the overall  
house curve. This technique is particularly useful when investigating acoustic feedback after the initial house  
curve has been set.

Inserting the Equaliser in the Signal Chain  
The exact point of insertion of an equaliser into the signal chain will very much depend on the task in hand e.g.  
mixer channel / line input, group insert point, group output, auxiliary send or between another signal processing  
device and the mixer or power amplifier, etc. when using delayed out signals for example, i.e. where a digital  
delay line is being used to synchronise sound arrivals in order to maintain intelligibility or source directionality,  
the option may exist to insert the equaliser either before or after the delay line e.g. In a conference venue  
employing similar loudspeaker types throughout the system, but connected to different delay outputs, the  
equaliser can be inserted before the delay line. In a more complex system where several loudspeaker types are  
employed, or where the local acoustic environment differs within the same system e.g. theatre system with a  
central loudspeaker cluster and delayed side fills or underbalcony speakers, each delay channel will need its  
own separate equaliser in order to satisfactorily equalise out either the different loudspeaker responses or the  
effects of the different local acoustic environment.

Equaliser Limitations  
The equaliser is not the answer to poor sound system design - but instead it should be considered as a final  
tuning measure - such final tuning can often bring about quite remarkable improvements to the overall  
intelligibility and perceived sound quality of a system.  
After an equaliser, a security cover is probably the most useful accessory a sound system could have.  
Equalisers, when used competently, can do wonders for your system - but when used badly.........
