Having bought a pre-owned Sony FM stereo tuner through eBay, it came without any manuals. It soon became clear that to get the best from this excellent tuner I needed a decent manual because much of the operation was not intuitive to a newboy to hi fi like me. I managed to download the official Sony multi-lingual manual from Owner-Manuals.com with no problem at all - a really quick and easy service. I'm very glad I did because I found out all the operations of the tuner and was then able to not only set it up quickly but also to get much more from it that poke-and-hope trialling would ever achieve. In my book $4.99 very well spent.

Front panel knobs 1-2 are routed to the �lter parameters and will affect the initial settings made here. You may want to disconnect the PatchCords to gain total control over the �lter parameters.

Go to the Filter Frequency and Q screen. Position the cursor in the Freq: �eld as shown in the following illustration.

The Frequency parameter determines the �lter cutoff frequency or the frequency the �lter uses as the highest frequency allowed to pass. If you play the keyboard now, you should hear the raw sound. Slowly decrease the �lter cutoff frequency value as you play the keyboard. The sound gets more and more dull as you remove more and more high frequencies from the sound. At some point, the sound completely disappears. (You have �ltered out everything.) The chart on the following page illustrates what you just did.

Open the �lter back up to 255, then move the cursor to the Q �eld. Set the Q to 10, then move the cursor back under the Freq value. As you change the frequency, notice that the sound now has a sharp, nasal quality. A high Q boosts or ampli�es the frequencies at the cutoff frequency (Fc). Reset the cutoff frequency to the lowest setting and the Q to 00.
