There are many kinds of EQ. Each has a different pattern of attenuation or boost. One common type of equalizer is the graphic equalizer which consists of a bank of sliders for boosting and cutting different bands (or frequencies ranges) of sound. The number and width of filters depends on application. Historically, the first use of slide controls in an equalizer was in the Langevin Model EQ-251A which featured two passive equalization sections, a bass shelving filter and a pass band filter. Each filter had switch able frequencies and used a fifteen position slide switch to adjust cut or boost. The first true graphic equalizer was the type 7080 developed by Art Davis's Cinema Engineering. It featured 6 bands with a boost or cut range of 8 dB.
