Dear friend of audio culture,
Only a dream?
A truly musical equalizer which enhances any sound by providing a new dimension of depth,
width, brilliance and openness? Which replaces the tedious search for an adequate change with
nding the right setting intuitively in no time at all? And which oers a truly universal concept,
covering recording, mixing, mastering and creative tasks without cutting back?
You have just woken up. The museq has been designed with exactly these requirements in mind.
You can compliment yourself on your new EQ! A similar combination of exibility and high grade
audio paths without the slightest compromise is rare to nd, and – as far as our experience goes –
the special elysia features like high and low pass lters with additional resonance peak as well as
the integrated warm circuit are unique in the market.
Please take a little time to read this manual thoroughly, as it will help you to entirely understand
the enormous potentials and to really push the envelope. We have paid great attention to practical experience and fast comprehension, which is also the reason for reserving the explanation of
the technological excesses of the museq to our website.
Finally, we would like to thank you sincerely for your condence in our products. If you have further questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact us – we enjoy being of your service.
But for now, it’s time to wish you lots of fun and musical experiences with your museq.
Use the Force…
the elysians

Both channels of the museq are absolutely identical regarding their electronic design. Therefore
both sides of the front panel have exactly the same controls and switches. Every potentiometer
oers 23 steps for a comfortable recall with an ample choice of values.

Mains module
This module combines the line cord connector, the on/o switch, the fuse holder with integrated 230/115 VAC voltage selector and a line lter for providing the transformer with
clean current.
WARNING: High voltage
Make sure to disconnect the line cord before replacing eventually blown fuses or changing
the operating voltage of the unit! In order to change the operating voltage, the fuse holder
has to be taken out and re-inserted so that the desired voltage can be read correctly (and is
not standing upside down). Note: Some export versions have a xed voltage of e.g. 100 or
115 VAC and cannot operate at 230 VAC.
WARNING: Fuses
Always make sure to use the correct fuses for the chosen voltage: 230 VAC 0.8 A Slo-Blo or
115 VAC 1.6 A Slo-Blo. Incorrect or missing fuses are dangerous safety hazards for both the
unit and yourself!
Brightness trimmer
You can use a small screwdriver to adjust the light intensity of the front panel logo disc.

Level Issues
Low Level
This problem can eventually be caused by balanced wiring. If the level becomes low when the
museq is activated, a pin of the XLR connector at the input is probably not connected. To ensure
proper operation, make sure to have both pins connected.
The classic example for this problem is a balanced XLR cable that is connected to an unbalanced
output which only uses ground and pin 2 – connecting pin 3 to ground should solve the trouble.
Level Jump
In some audio processors the output stage is designed in a way that the level will always stay the
same – no matter if it is connected with a balanced or an unbalanced cable. If pin 3 is connected
to ground, for example, the level at pin 2 will automatically become twice as loud as before. This
kind of output stage is usually unproblematic.
But there are also stages which cannot compensate that. Then the level at pin 2 stays as it is, even
if pin 3 is connected to ground. If the museq is placed between a device with this kind of output
stage and a device with unbalanced inputs with pin 3 connected to ground, it is possible that the
level will jump up by 6 dB when the equalizer is activated.
As a general rule, balanced input stages are always the best choice. In case they are not available,
the rst attempt to solve this problem should be to disconnect pin 3 at the XLR inputs of the
museq and then connect it to ground. This generates an unbalanced signal that should not shift
levels anymore.
Symbols
In order to maintain a clearly arranged front panel, the museq uses the following symbols:
Low Cut
LED on: lter is in Low Cut mode | LED o: lter is in Low Shelf mode
High Cut
LED on: lter is in High Cut mode | LED o: lter is in High Shelf mode
Cut Gain
LED on: frequency band is attenuated | LED o: frequency band is boosted
Narrow Q
LED on: high quality factor (Q) | LED o: low quality factor (Q)
