For creating a great low end, use the EQP-1A. Just turn the knobs to adjust and get that tight, focused sound. The MEQ-5 is perfect for customizing mids. You can add vibrancy and depth to vocals, guitars, and keys. The HLF-3C is great for creating effects or removing unwanted frequencies. Just use its two controls to get the result you want.
