Parametric filters Q value of old Emotiva proc UMC-1

[alligatto]

Hello,

The final question is: what was the Q value of the 11 fixed frequencies equalizer of the old UMC-1 processor?

Because:

I had an UMC-1 processor for years and was almost very happy with it,

I have 'upgraded' with a refurbished XMC-1,

I'm not very satisfied with the Dirac settings.

So I would like to set-up this new XMC-1 with the manual filters tuned like the ones I had set up on the old UMC-1 with its equalizer (11 fixed frequencies)

I have set up the XMC-1 11 filters with the same frequencies than the equalizer but I can't find what was the 'Q value' of the equalizer of the UMC-1 to get the "same" settings.

Thank you very much for your help

I don't have a precise number there.... and the equivalence may not be exact.... (DSP-based filters don't always act like "regular" filters)

But a Q of around 1.0 should get you pretty close.
