Jay,
Yes, after the mixer.

If you haven't bought one already, I've got a FBQ2496 that I was thinking of selling. Full working order, manuals, original box.

If you’re going to use one of these things here are some tips on how to get the best results:

Let it set 7 or 8 filters as a maximum.

If it sets any filter to narrower than 1/10 octave widen it.

If it sets any filter deeper than 6dB reduce the depth.

Lock all filters before any music goes through them.
