• Super Bass Level
The Super Bass Level parameter sets the level of the Bass Enhancer effect added to the sound.
The Bass Enhancer takes the bass signal from the 30Hz-200Hz range, and generates
subharmonics that are filtered and modeled by the Super Bass Type, then once again injected
onto the bi-channel signal, at the level set via the Super Bass Level control.
Super Bass Level may be adjusted from 0.0 to +12.0 dB, with steps of 0.5 dB.
• Super Bass Type
The Super Bass Type parameter sets the type of bass added to the sound by the Bass
Enhancer.
The Bass Enhancer takes the bass signal from the 30Hz-200Hz range, and generates
subharmonics that are filtered and modeled by the Super Bass Type, then once again injected
onto the bi-channel signal at the level set via the Super Bass Level control.
The Super Bass Type may generate three different types of bass:
• Disco Soft Bass (30-Hz range)
• Club Long Bass (80-Hz range)
• Tight Hard Bass (150-Hz range)
• Bass Level
The Bass Level parameter adjusts the threshold level that trips the bass frequency compressor,
affecting the frequency band from 30KHz to 200KHz
(see block diagram). The higher the
threshold value (f.i. +1 / +2), the less the bass will be compressed, and will thus be more strongly
present. A value of 0 means leaving the frequency substantially unchanged.
Bass Level may be adjusted from –6.0 to +6.0, with steps of 0.5. No unit of measure is indicated,
because this adjustment simultaneously affects multiple compression parameters.
• Mid1 Level
The Mid 1 Level parameter adjusts the threshold level that trips the middle-bass frequency
compressor, affecting the frequency band from 200KHz to 1.5KHz
(see block diagram). The
higher the threshold value (f.i. +1 / +2), the less the medium-bass tones will be compressed, and
will thus be stronger. A value of 0 means leaving the frequency substantially unchanged.
Mid 3 Level may be adjusted from –6.0 to +6.0, with steps of 0.5. No unit of measure is indicated,
because this adjustment simultaneously affects multiple compression parameters.
• Mid 2 Level
The Mid 2 Level parameter adjusts the threshold level that trips the middle frequency
compressor, affecting the frequency band from 1.5KHz to 4.8KHz (see block diagram). The
higher the threshold value (f.i. +1 / +2), the less the medium tones will be compressed, and will
thus be stronger. A value of 0 means leaving the frequency substantially unchanged.
Mid 3 Level may be adjusted from –6.0 to +6.0, with steps of 0.5. No unit of measure is indicated,
because this adjustment simultaneously affects multiple compression parameters.
• Mid 3 Level
The Mid 3 Level parameter adjusts the threshold level that trips the middle-high frequency
compressor, affecting the frequency band from 4.8KHz to 9.5KHz (see block diagram). The
higher the threshold value (f.i. +1 / +2), the less the medium-high tones will be compressed, and
will thus be stronger. A value of 0 means leaving the frequency substantially unchanged.
Mid 3 Level may be adjusted from –6.0 to +6.0, with steps of 0.5. No unit of measure is indicated,
because this adjustment simultaneously affects multiple compression parameters.
• High Level
The High Level parameter adjusts the threshold level that trips the high frequency compressor,
affecting the frequency band from 9.5KHz to 15KHz (see block diagram). The higher the
threshold value (f.i. +1 / +2), the less the high frequencies will be compressed, and will thus be
more strongly present. A value of 0 means leaving the frequency substantially unchanged.
High Level may be adjusted from –6.0 to +6.0, with steps of 0.5. No unit of measure is indicated,
because this adjustment simultaneously affects multiple compression parameters.
• Wide Density
The Wide Density parameter adjusts the compression level throughout the band, increasing the
average signal level (while reducing dynamics). The frequency deviation remains within 75 KHz.
Wide Density may be adjusted from 0.0 to +12.0 dB, with steps of 0.5 dB.
High density values provide the transmitted signal with a strong ‘presence’, while reducing the
dynamics of the signal.
We recommend using low-density profiles for programs based on classical and symphony music.
• Brilliance
The Brilliance parameter adjusts the HF limiter level,
for better definition of the high frequencies. It may be adjusted within a range of –6.0 to +6.0, with
steps of 0.5. No unit of measure is indicated, because this adjustment simultaneously affects
multiple compression parameters. A value of 0 means leaving the frequency substantially
unchanged; values <0 make the parameter more incisive, while values >0 reduce its effects.
Its effects are especially strongly felt when the transmitting pre-emphasis is the one generated by
the processor.
