The base password is stored with the base conguration le preventing access to locked data even in
Designer Mode. Using a base password allows hiding of your custom settings from any Lake Controller
user.
Base Conguration les hide EQ curves, crossovers,
or high-pass and low-pass lters, and convert Group
and Module levels to hidden Factory values. The
use of base conguration les is recommended for
experienced Lake Controller users who require this additional
level of security and functionality.
Module les provide additional functionality to
base conguration les and can be used instead of
base conguration les in most circumstances.
19. 2.1.1 Crossover and Output EQ
All information in the XOVER screen (Lake Contour) or HPF/LPF screen (Mesa EQ) is stored in the base
conguration le, including crossover frequencies, crossover type (for example, Bessel, Butterworth, or
Linkwitz-Riley), along with any output-specic EQ, HPF/LPF settings, and crossover access status. All data
in the XOVER screen can be adjusted for each Module, unless the designer has applied security to the base
conguration le.
A base conguration le cannot be recalled into a Module running a different DSP program. For example,
a two-way base conguration le cannot be recalled into a Module that is currently running a three-way
Module program; a two-way Module program must be recalled rst.
19.2.1.2 PEQ and GEQ
All Module and Group EQ overlays are combined and stored as an invisible default EQ curve for the new
base conguration. Once stored in the base conguration les, this default EQ curve cannot be viewed or
adjusted, although further EQ overlays can be created at the Module or Group level. When the new base
conguration le is recalled into a different Module, the main EQ appears at. Output-specic EQ from the
XOVER or output EQ screens can still be viewed or adjusted, unless the system designer has protected it.
The EQ curve created in the PEQ and GEQ overlays
is separate from any output-specic EQ created on
the XOVER/AUX pages.
19. 2.1.3 Levels
With the exception of the MaxRMS Limiter Corner, Attack and Release, the current Module and Group
levels are combined and stored as factory levels when a base conguration le is stored. The factory
levels can be viewed and adjusted in Designer Mode after activating the ADJUST FACTORY option in the
LEVELS/METER OPTIONS menu.
Level Limits, also stored with a base conguration le, can be viewed and adjusted from
LEVELS/METER OPTIONS/LEVELS LIMITS.
