Sabine Releases Graphi-Q Remote Control
Software Version 2.10

July 29, 1999
Sabine has released a much-improved version of the remote control software
for the Graphi-Q Digital
31-Band EQ, FBX Feedback Exterminator(r), Parametric EQ, Compressor, and
Delay, packed into a one- or two-U box.
Graphi-Q Remote Software give the same hands-on feel as the Graphi-Q's
front panel, and allows the user to control up to eight Graphi-Qs simultaneously;
set parametric filters, FBX filter-depth, graphic EQ filter width, and
password protection; store 70 presets; and view and edit response curves.
Version 2.10 improvements:
- The version 2.10 main screen is more attractively and ergonomically
organized. All common controls can now be accessed directly from the
main screen. Graphic EQ adjustments can be made quickly and easily using
keyboard arrow keys. All parameter settings can now be entered by clicking
the right mouse button and typing a number. All parameter values appear
in pop up windows when controls are clicked. The bypass section is simplified.
Many additional keyboard shortcuts have been added.
- The new Remote Control Software enables control of two sets of up
to 8 units per set (using two COMM ports) from a single computer-that
means up to 16 channels per set! Individual channels and/or parameters
can be linked for control with a single keystroke. Up to 8 "Absolute"
and 8 "Relative" groups can be created for simultaneous linking.
- One software command allows either single memory presets, or entire
preset libraries to be saved, loaded, or copied from one unit to another.
Contact closure memory loading has been expanded to allow 68 preset
assignments (128 switch combinations). There are now three quick save/load
snapshot memories.
- Front panel default parameters (compressor knee, attack and release;
limiter threshold; high and low filter slope; EQ filter width, depth,
persistence and sensitivity) previously adjustable only with the software
can now be reprogrammed.
- Three levels of password access are now available for varying levels
of security.
- Context-sensitive help screens are placed throughout the software
for quick reference.
- High and low cut filters can have either 12 or 24 dB/octave slope.
Delay times can be adjusted for ambient temperature. Sensitivity and
Persistence (for FBX filters) have been added to Global Parameter settings.
Graphi-Q Remote Control Software Version 2.10 can be used with earlier
units providing the unit is "flashed" with Firmware Version
2.10. Both upgrades are free and can be downloaded from the Sabine website
