8. Operation with default preset

An IPD Series amplier may be operated “out of the box” as a standard stereo amplier. For this application, there

is no need to connect the network, download the software, or program a preset in the DSP. Default parameters are

as follows:

Input mixer: Analog 1 and AES 1 routed to channel 1

Analog 2 and AES 2 routed to channel 2

Mode: Stereo

Input levels: 0 dB

Input EQ: Flat

Output EQ: Flat

Delay: Off

Crossover: Off

Output mute: On (muted)

In this mode, the unit will function as a “at” stereo amplier. The outputs may be muted and unmuted with the

front panel buttons. The encoder knob functions as an output gain control, with level adjustable from -47.75 dB

to + 12 dB.

9. IntelliDrive controller overview

9.1. Introduction

IntelliDrive Controller offers fast, intuitive and comprehensive access to the many DSP features offered by IPD

Series ampliers. Although it is possible to program presets and alter existing presets using the front panel controls

(See Section 14), most users will nd the process is easier and more accurate using IntelliDrive Controller. In

most cases, the front panel controls are best reserved for changing presets or making minor level adjustments in

circumstances where a control computer is not available or when network problems are encountered.

Note: This manual assumes the user is familiar with the basic principles of loudspeaker system DSP conguration,

including multi-way loudspeaker system alignment, room tuning, and delay setting. If you are not familiar with these

procedures, we recommend you consult a reference book or online source presenting a comprehensive treatment

of the topic.

9.2. Global (System) View

The Global, or System, View presents a graphical representation of all ampliers connected to the network,

indentied by IP address or user dened name. The Global View gives an at-a-glance overview of amplier groups

and amplier status, including Mute status and output level meters.
