you select 440hz, with a Q of 2 octaves wide you affect 176Hz to 704Hz.
so the centre frequency changes as you change the Q.
(I'd say this is an example of a very poorly designed parametric EQ)
they'll never tell you in the manual either.
oh ok, i get it, thanks! that does sound poorly designed.
manuals dont tell u lots of things sometimes.
