ULTRAMIZER PRO DSP1424P
2.1.3 The Exciter function
The ULTRAMIZER PROs exciter function adds transparency and depth to the audio signal. Classical music
material gains transparency and musicality while popular music keeps the desired brilliance. Two parameters
govern the performance of the exciter function, both can be accessed by means of the EXCITER key.
EXCITER PROCESS
When pressed once you gain access to the exciter PROCESS parameter. The PROC LED next to the
numeric display will light up to show this. Now you can set the intensity of the exciter effect within the range
of 0 to 100.
EXCITER TUNE
When pressed twice you have access to the TUNE parameter. This refers to the lower frequency limit of the
exciter function. It can be set from 4 to 12 kHz. The kHz LED next to the numeric display lights up to display
the unit of the edited parameter.
2.1.4 The SuperBass function
The superbass function is the low frequency equivalent of the exciter function. Designed to process the low
frequency portion of the signal and to add transparency and depth.
SUPER BASS PROCESS
If you press the SUPERBASS key once you can access the superbass PROCESS parameter, which
determines the intensity of the superbass function. The value can be set from 0 to 100 while the PROC LED
lights up.
+ Be careful not to overload your power amplifiers or loudspeakers when you use an extreme
setting of the PROCESS parameter of the superbass function. Remember, less is more.
SUPER BASS TUNE
When pressed twice you have access to the superbass TUNE parameter. This is the upper frequency limit of
the superbass function.This can be set from 50 to 150 Hz. The Hz LED next to the numeric display lights
up to display the unit of the edited parameter.
2.1.5 The 3DSurround function
With the the 3Dsurround function the ULTRAMIZERPRO can be used as a 3D stereo surround processor,
increasing the stereo width of the program material. Whether you want to process individual instruments or the
entire mix, you can set the 3Dsurround function on the fly. The effect makes the sound more spacious, wider
and more detailed. Since this function does not make any sense with two mono signals, the COUPLE mode
must be activated to activate the 3Dsurround function.
+ When you use extreme settings with the 3Dsurround function on audio that has been processed
by a reverb, the reverb can sound unnatural and too intense. This is caused by the way stereo
reverbs operate. Remember, less is more.
2.1.6 The Denoiser function
The ULTRAMIZER PROs denoiser function is universally applicable and suited for all types of instrument and
complex signals. The algorithm of the denoiser function does not produce unpleasant side effects like pumping
or noise tails. The parameters are for a large part chosen automatically depending on the program material and
the two parameters, which can be accessed with the DENOISER key.
DENOISER THRESHOLD
When the DENOISER key is pressed once, the THRESHOLD can be set. This function reflects the noise
gate and is used to remove unwanted noise during pauses. When the denoiser THRESHOLD is being set the
dB LED beside the numeric display lights up. The setting can range from -90 to 0dB (no signal reaches the
output). OF means the denoiser function is deactivated.
DENOISER SENSITIVITY
When the DENOISER key is pressed twice you can edit the parameter SENSITIVITY. With this parameter,
you determine the sensitivity of the dynamic high cut filter. This function is highly useful to remove noise from
your audio. The SENS LED next to the numeric display indicates that the sensitivity is being edited.
