1. A computer readable medium containing program instructions for controlling a parametric equalizer, comprising:
- computer readable code for displaying a composite equalization curve, a first frequency curve with a first center frequency, a second frequency curve with a second center frequency, and a third frequency curve with a third center frequency, wherein the composite equalization curve is formed from at least the first frequency curve, the second frequency curve, and the third frequency curve;
computer readable code for allowing a dragging movement of the first center frequency, the second center frequency, and the third center frequency;
computer readable code for providing real time changes in equalization according to changes in the equalization curve caused by dragging movement;
computer readable code for displaying a plurality of presets, wherein each preset is displayed as a thumbnail composite curve that graphically indicates the equalization provided by the preset; and
an output amplifier electrically connected to the parametric equalizer, wherein the equalization curve represents an equalization curve of the output amplifier.

Abstract
A computer readable medium containing program instructions for controlling a parametric equalizer is provided. Generally, a computer readable code is provided for displaying a composite equalization curve, wherein the composite equalization curve is formed from at least a first frequency filter with a first center frequency, a second frequency filter with a second center frequency, and a third frequency filter with a third center frequency. A computer readable code is provided for allowing a dragging movement of the first center frequency, the second center frequency, and the third center frequency.
