Peavey Q231FX Graphic Equalizer Owner's Manual
This manual begins with important safety instructions, warning users about dangerous uninsulated voltage, the risk of electric shock, and the fact that no user‑serviceable parts are inside the unit. Users are instructed to leave servicing to qualified personnel and to keep the enclosure dry.
The remainder of the guide explains the unit’s features, including the dual 31‑band graphic equalizer, constant‑Q filters, and the Feedback Locating System that uses LEDs to identify feedback‑prone frequencies. It also covers the back‑panel connections (XLR and 1/4" inputs/outputs), low‑cut filter, bypass mode, gain control, power requirements, and full technical specifications.
