General Operation - BBE Sonic Maximizer 262 User Manual

GENERAL OPERATION

THE BBE 262 IS A LINE LEVEL SIGNAL PROCESSOR AND IS TO BE CONNECTED PRIOR TO THE POWER AMP
IN ANY AUDIO SYSTEM. SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE MAY BE INFLICTED TO THE BBE 262 OR ANY SUBSEQUENT
COMPONENT IN THE SYSTEM IN THE EVENT THE OUTPUT OF A POWER AMP IS CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO
THE BBE 262.
In order to reduce the risk of damage to any equipment, properly connect all cables and power cables before turning on any
components in the system. Most important of all, ALWAYS TURN ON THE POWER AMPLIFIER LAST TO AVOID
DAMAGING THE SPEAKERS OR THE AMP.
The BBE 262 may be utilized in a number of different environments and its results may vary accordingly. Because both channels are
completely independent from each other, only one channel of the BBE 262 may be used, or each channel processing a different
signal source. The effects loop is the ideal placement in the signal chain of a guitar application. In a pre-amp, keyboard or P.A.
application, the BBE 262 works best as the last component in the signal chain, just before the crossover or power amp. Important:
In a P.A. application, never connect the BBE 262 into the effects loop. The inherent phase shift of the BBE Process will cause
phase cancellation resulting in a partial loss of signal.
