  • Page 3: Introduction

    What about Width? Without stereo widening the mix won't jump out of the speaker and grab your listener, this is where the 3 bands of the 1976 can be used to enhance the extra dimension to take the mix from a flat wall of sound to a 3D immersive experience.

  • Page 4: Installation

    POWER CONNECTION The 1976 unit will be supplied with a power cable suitable for domestic power outlets in your country. For your own safety, it is important that you use this cable to connect to the mains supply earth. The cable must not be tampered with or modified.

  • Page 5: Audio Connections

    A typical setup for connecting the 1976 would be by the use of a Y-lead between the two input and output xlr’s on the rear of the 1976 and insert point for the respective channel of the desk or interface for the digital workstation - this would be repeated for both channels.

  • Page 6: Control Description

    CONTROL DESCRIPTION The 1976 has been laid out to be as intuitive as possible. Essentially the layout of the 1976 comprises an input control to the left of the unit, after this the stereo signal is split into identical low, mid and high bands of saturation and width, each one processed separately at different frequencies without affecting the other, with the crossover frequency controls in betwee .
  • Page 7 In order to increase/decrease the stereo width and spaciousness of each band the 1976 manipulates the left and right phases of the stereo signal so that one side is in/out of phase with the other. Using the control the width of the stereo image of each band can be made narrower (-5 mono) or wider (+5 wide) than the width that the incoming signal supplies.

  • Page 8: Quick Setup Procedure

    8) Adjust the Output Level until the meter display reads the desired output level. 9) At this point the Output Bypass switch can be toggled to listen to the affect that the 1976 is having on the audio. Adjust to suit.

  • Page 9: Saturation & Width Tips

    It really is a case of playing with the 1976 saturation controls until you like the sound and it enriches your mix. Be careful not to over do it though because saturation is capable of completely ruining the audio.
  • Page 10 Just passing the audio through an analogue device will have some effect on warming the mix, though passing it through the 1976 will take your mixes to the next level. Subtle saturation is the key here. Don't add too much distortion, it can quickly ruin a mix if too harsh.
