capability of the amplier. This setting avoids current clip, ensuring best possible sound when reaching
the clipping threshold. Note: There is no auto-detection of the loudspeaker impedance; therefore, the
user must set the proper impedance for an accurate reading of values on the other parameters. However,
the function of the limiter is not affected by the nominal impedance entered.
c. Watt - Sets the maximum output power before limiter action takes effect.
d. dBu - Sets the maximum output in dBu before limiter action takes effect.
3. Limiter meter display - The display shows gain reduction with a peak hold line. Note: When limiting is active,
the peak hold line on the output meters changes to yellow to indicate peak limiting is in effect.
4. EQ DLY button - Click/tap to bring up the Input EQ tab for the input(s).
5. LINK button - Click/tap to link the two Input (Stereo mode only) or Output channels. When Link is active,
all settings in Channel 1 are automatically copied to Channel 2.
6. PHASE button - Toggles between PHASE NORMAL and PHASE REVERSE to reverse the phase (polarity) of
the output signal.
10.5. Input EQ and delay setting
1. Equalizer setting - Click/tap on the Input EQ 1 or Input EQ 2 tabs to bring up the parametric equalizer and delay
setting windows. Equalizer setting may be accomplished using any of three modes:
a. Curve “handles” - Click/tap on any of the ten colored lter “handles.” Drag the handle by left clicking the
mouse to create the desired equalization curve. For PC and MAC users, right click and move the mouse
right and left to adjust the Q/Bandwidth. On iPad this is done by pinching around the “handle” with two
ngers. Note: Default lter type is Bell.
b. Slider setting - Click/tap the Edit button under the number of the EQ band to be modied. Use the Sliders
to set the frequency, Q/Bandwidth, and Gain.
c. Keyboard entry - Click/tap the parameter window and enter the desired value.
2. Filter type - Use the drop down menu to select the desired lter type: Bell, Notch, Low Shelf, High Shelf,
Band Pass, High Pass or Low Pass.
3. Filter tools - The following lter tools are available on the left side of the EQ display:
a. Full screen - Expands EQ window to full screen.
b. Camera - Saves image of the EQ screen as a PNG le.
c. Micro-adjustment mode - Enables very ne adjustment of curve parameters when using the “drag
handles” mode of setting. Parameter values are displayed.
d. Text tool - Displays the parameter values for all inserted lters.
4. Output Level metering for both outputs is displayed to monitor the effects of inserting the lters.
5. Delay - Use the slider to set the channel input delay, or use keyboard entry to enter the desired delay value in
the window. Note: Both input and output delays are provided for each channel. In stereo mode, the Input and
Output settings are redundant. In 2-way mode, the Input delay may be used for longer delays for aligning
remote delay loudspeaker systems with the main front system while the output delay may be used for aligning
drivers within the loudspeaker cabinet or array.
