A British style EQ seeks to replicate the qualities of the expensive British Consoles. TOC Misconceptions Some think that because many British consoles had dual sweep mid range controls controls for both high and low mids with variable frequencies that any EQ having this feature was a British EQ . Another misconception is that because some makers used centre frequencies that were common musical tones, such as A440 Concert A A440 , that an EQ with a similar setup was British .

It is meant to be used by audio engineers in order to adjust the playback equipment so that the accompanying Electronic media media is at a comfortable volume for the audience. In video production , this tone is usually accompanied by a test card so the video signal may be calibrated as well. It is sometimes played in sequence between a 100  Hz and 10  kHz tone to ensure an accurate response from the equipment at varying audio frequencies. This is also the bleep censor bleep tone commonly used to Censorship censor obscene or sensitive audio content.

Ludwig van Beethoven Beethoven chose A flat major as the key of the slow movement for most of his C minor works, a practice which Anton Bruckner imitated in his first two C minor symphonies and also Anton n Dvo k in his only C minor symphony. Since A flat major was not often chosen as the main key for orchestral works of the 18th Century, passages or movements in the key often retained the timpani settings of the preceding movement.

The SER was merged into the SECR in 1899 and, between 1910 and 1927 the B class engines were rebuilt with new boilers by Harry Wainwright to become B1 class.

A further 9 were built at the South Eastern Railway s Ashford railway works and given a jumble of numbers 217, 13, 21, 101, 34, 17, 132, 186, 189. They kept these numbers under the SECR. When the Southern Railway Great Britain Southern Railway took over in 1923 they initially gave the numbers an A prefix and later added 1000 to them.
