This was a hard to find manual. When I did find it , some sites wanted way too much for the file.
Owner-manual .com had it for a really reasonable price. Not only that but it was sent very quickly and was a quality scanned document, unlike some others I purchased from a different site.
Good job guys!!

Last week I bought a second hand Panasonic AG-7500 SVHS Hi-Fi Video Cassette Recorder. It is a professional machine with many video and audio options. I feared it would be a huge quest to find a manual. I was delighted when I found owner-manuals.com. After payment I received the file to download the next day already. The quality is great. I am very happy. Thanks!
The owner's manual/operating instructions that I purchased was the original factory document and it was in at least three and maybe more languages. I no longer have it because I sold the tape recorder and included the owner's manual/operating instructions and a service/repair manual that I bought on ebay for the new owner.
This manual is very useful. Because pioneer sx-q180 is unhandy to use without manual.

About Equalization
The specific EQ you will apply to your bass signal is very much dependent upon your particular instrument and personal taste and playing style. However, here are a few general suggestions:
0dB 0dB 0dB 0dB
-15
+15
-15
+15
-15
+15
-15
+15
� For that super-deep reggae or Motown sound, boost the Low EQ slightly while attenuating the High control (leave the Low Mid and High Mid flat or slightly attenuated).
LOW
LOW MID
HIGH MID
HIGH
0dB

� To remove boxiness and make your instrument sound more �hi-fi,� try attenuating the High Mid and/or Low Mid frequencies while leaving the Low and High settings flat.

� For a twangy, cutting sound, try boosting the High and High Mid frequencies (putting new roundwound strings on your bass will help a lot also!).

� Whenever you get a really good EQ setting for a particular instrument or song, write it down (you�d be amazed how easy it is to forget these things!).
Finally, as you experiment with the EQ controls of the Model 1400/1415, don�t forget that your bass also provides EQ controls in the form of its tonal settings� this can be particularly effective in instruments that have active circuitry. Also, try various EQ settings with and without the Contour switch in and also with and without Compression. For more information, see the �Effect of the Contour Switch� and �About Compression� sections below.
