  Stooper,
  
  As best I can tell, the SB50's EQ function is entirely manual. You release the EQ button to start the process, and you push the button in to stop it.

  crewzer is 100% right and be sure you never put stuff on top of the controller, even temporarilly, as it could activate the eq function. that is one complaint i do have on the sb50 as that was poorly thought out in placing that switch there.
