What is an EQ Violin?
An EQ violin, or an "electric violin with EQ," is a type of violin designed with electronic components that allow for the adjustment of its sound using an equalization (EQ) system. Unlike traditional acoustic violins, EQ violins are equipped with built-in pickups and electronic circuitry that can modify the tone and volume of the instrument. This enables the player to shape and control the sound, making it suitable for different musical styles and performance environments.
The EQ system typically includes controls for adjusting bass, midrange, and treble frequencies, as well as volume control. By using these controls, violinists can achieve various tonal qualities and tailor the sound to their preferences.
EQ violins are popular in genres where amplified or modified violin sounds are desired, such as rock, jazz, and electronic music. They are often used in live performances and studio recordings to achieve specific sonic effects.
Instructions for Using an EQ Violin:
1. When the EQ is off, it functions as a regular violin.
2. With the EQ activated but without an amplifier, it produces a subtly enhanced EQ sound compared to a regular violin.
3. With both the EQ and an amplifier connected, it amplifies the EQ-enhanced sound, making it louder.
4. If you need to use headphones, please note that the EQ violin itself doesn't support this. Instead, plug your headphones into the amplifier and adjust the settings using the amplifier's controls.
Tuning Peg
To tune the violin, tighten the pegs carefully and ensure that they are not too loose or too tight. Tune the strings in the order of G-D-A-E from left to right, and gently push the pegs in after tuning.
When tuning a new violin kit, it may take several attempts to stabilize the pitch. This is normal and expected for a new violin.
Use Bow and Rosin
1. Tighten the bow screw and keep the horsehair in the middle part away from the bow rod by about 0.40 inches.
2. Scrape the surface of the rosin with the bow screw.
3. Rub the horsehair back and forth evenly on the surface of the rosin to make the bow hair stick with the rosin until the violin produces sound.
Care and Maintenance
1. Keep your violin away from fireplaces, heaters, and damp places. Also, avoid exposing it to direct sunlight, as this may cause damage.
2. After each use, wipe the rosin powder and dust from the strings with a clean cloth.
3. Avoid touching the bow hairs with your hands, and do not tighten the bow too much during practice. Before each practice, apply rosin evenly on the bow hairs.
Bridge Installation
Step 1
Loosen the strings slightly to avoid breaking them when placing the bridge.
Step 2
Align the notches on the bridge with all four violin strings.
Step 3
Hold the bottom of the bridge with both hands and stand it vertically on the panel.
Step 4
Place it in the middle of the F-holes and correspond to both notches horizontally of the "F" holes.
