Page 19: Power Connections
Power Connections The BOOM-1 has a switching power supply that allows the unit to be used with AC power service anywhere in the world. The AC power inlet uses a standard, detachable IEC power connector. Always use the IEC power connector with the plug designed for your local power service; avoid using adapters. -
Page 20: Line-Level Output
Line-Level Output The BOOM-1 provides a mono, balanced XLR line-level audio output which makes it easy to connect the unit’s processed audio signal to an external amplifier. The L is useful when you want to use an array of tactile transducers in a large area such as a stage floor, powered by one or more external amplifiers. -
Page 21: Transducer System Select
BOOM-1 output to be fine tuned to suit the specific type and model of tactile device as well as the mounting method that you are using. Drum thrones, keyboard seats, platforms, performance stools, etc., all have natural resonant frequencies that can enhance and/or detract from the response of a given tactile transducer device connected to it. -
Page 22: Polarity
Polarity Changing the polarity of the audio from BOOM-1 can be useful when you need to compensate for the orientation of a tactile transducer mounted on a platform, stool, etc. Use the p DIP switch in the up oLarIty position to invert the polarity of the processed audio signal sent to both the Transducer Out and Line Out. -

Page 24: Ctt-1
BOOM System Products Aviom makes adding tactile transducers to your monitoring system as easy as possible by providing a set of products that are designed to be plug-and-play simple. We’ve partnered with some of the industry’s leading manufacturers to offer tactile-enhanced versions of their products that can be directly connected to the BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor. -
Page 25: Connecting A Headphone Output
BOOM-1 along with a drum throne-mounted transducer such as Aviom’s CTT-1 helps return some of the low frequency energy that may have been lost when switching from an acoustic to an electronic drum kit. - Page 26 The personal mixer headphone out connects to the BOOM-1 Headphone In with a TRS cable. Use the M switch on the front panel of the BOOM-1 to easily compare the mix with and without the tactile transducer. BOOM-1 T acTile...

Page 27: Connecting A Line-Level Source
This system example uses a device with a dedicated mono line-level audio output such as a mixing console’s Aux send or the Aviom A360 Personal Mixer’s Mono Mix Out connected to the BOOM-1’s line- level input on the rear panel. If your mono line-level audio source has a balanced TRS 1/4-inch connector, use a TRS-to-XLR male adapter cable. -
Page 28: Transducer Response
Do not connect a balanced line-level mono audio signal to the 1/4-inch headphone inputs. Transducer Response To fine tune the drum-throne-mounted transducer’s response, use the Transducer System Select DIP switches on the BOOM-1 rear panel. See “Transducer System Select” on page 13 for more info. BOOM-1 T acTile... -
Page 29: Connecting A Performance Platform
If the performance platform being used contains multiple transducers, be sure that the total impedance for the platform is in the 4-8 Ohm range to avoid damage to the BOOM-1 internal amplifier. Connecting a Performance Platform This example uses a personal mixer with a stereo headphone audio output such as an Aviom A320 Personal Mixer. - Page 30 Try the three Feel presets on the BOOM-1 front panel; choose the one that works best for your musical application. An A320 Personal Mixer feeds its headphone mix to a BOOM-1 and a PLF-1 platform.
