RANE CORP. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
Step by Step Instructions I. Stereo VU Meter A. Connect program source to the LINE INPUTS on the rear. If mono operation is desired, connect the mono program source to the LEFT INPUT. B. Set the SOURCE switch to LINE IN. C. Set the GAIN control to the center detent to calibrate the 0 dB mark on the VU scale to +4 dBu. OR Set the GAIN control fully clockwise to calibrate the 0 dB mark on the VU scale to -10 dBV. D. Select the METER mode by pressing the METER/RTA button so the METER LED illuminates. E.
Alignment Instructions Since the RA 30 features a unique form of realtime analyzer, we highly recommend that you read this section before performing an alignment with pink noise. If you’ve never used an analyzer before, use these instructions on your first occasion. You’ll be delighted at how simple it really is. WEIGHTING FILTERS Used in SPL mode, the filter “weights” or gives more attention to certain frequency bands than others.
Noise test settings the same amount at each performance; make a note of these further adjustments to save future tweaking during performances. For example, you note the pink noise settings and find later that you like to have 3 dB more boost at 63 Hz for more low-end punch during the performance.
