Smile Behringer FBQ2496 manual adjustment with RTA


Hello morning there. Okay I’ll cut straight the chase shall I?

I have an RTA analyzer a basic model that has range from 25Hz 40Hz 63Hz 100Hz 160Hz 250Hz 500Hz 1 KHz 2 KHz 4 KHz 8 KHz 16 KHz.

I’m using this with Behringer ECM8000 microphone and M100 preamplifier.

Sub bass is an 18” JBL professional and the simplest of questions I’m looking for is…

What specific filter (bandwidth) should be used on the FBQ2496 that is described in figures on the display panel as shown?

Nothing much happens between when I use figures
1/60 1
1/60 2
1/60 2
1/60 3
1/60 4
1/60 5

That is until I get to these figures
0.10
0.11
0.12
0.14
0.16
0.20
0.25
0.33
0.50
0.75
1.0
1.5
2.5
3.0
4.0
5.0
6.0
7.0
8.0
10.0


I can hear the difference between the tone getting louder (which I assume is filter bandwidth) getting wider and then vice verse where the (bandwidth is getting narrower).

Also I’ve read the user’s manual over and over and over and over again and there is no reference as to what the shape of the filter looks like in relation to the bandwidth numbers?

Since there is no visual representation to show what the shape of the filter is, I’, wondering if anyone here knows that information as this would be huge benefit in getting the EQ done (manually) as apposed to (auto) with (computer software).

I’ll be standing by for a response as I would like to get this done today.

Thanks.
