Menu Screen
The menu screen displays six icons. Like the
mixer screen, just rotate the speaker control knob
until the icon of the parameter you want to change
is illuminated. Then push the knob to enter that icon's
screen.
The six icon selectors are as follows:
• Mixer
• Speaker Mode
• Sub
• Delay
• Bluetooth
• Configuration
We'll go through each one, starting with mixer
at the top left.
Mixer
This is the easiest to describe since we just went
through the mixer screen on the last two pages!
To recap, though, the mixer screen is where
to set levels and channel EQ.

Speaker mode allows you to change
the loudspeaker's speaker voicing to tailor
it to best suit your particular application.

There are five speaker modes, plus an additional
choice of inside or outside use. That is essentially TEN
speaker voicing modes to choose from! Let's check
them out:
• Flat – No question about this speaker mode;
it's flat! This plug-and-play mode is perfect
for singer-songwriters and listening to mastered music.
• Live – This mode features a low frequency
roll-off to get rid of unwanted thumps and adds
boost and sparkle to mid-range and high frequencies.
• Speech – This mode features a significant low
frequency roll-off to get rid of unwanted thumps.
It also adds boost and sparkle to mid-range and high
frequencies, critical for speech applications. Lastly,
a compressor has been added to help control spoken
audio levels. This plug-and-play mode is perfect for
larger venue applications where speech is the primary
audio source in need of clear and precise intelligibility.
• Club – This mode is full range, but focuses
on increased bass and brilliant high frequencies.
This is the place to start for most DJ / music
playback applications.
• Monitor – Monitor mode was designed primarily to
remove unwanted low frequency buildup while also
improving mid-range articulation for the artist(s).
This mode should only be engaged when
the speaker is in its monitor orientation
and coupled with a stage or other hardwood
floor... if not, the speaker won't sound right.
About that inside / outside selection... in a sentence,
choose whether you are using the loudspeaker inside
or outside. The speaker's voicing is altered to the
environment. That's all you need to know, but we're
going to give you more!
When speakers are outside, a combination of low
and high frequencies don't build up the way they
do inside. SRM | V-Class corrects for that by
boosting the frequency ranges that become deficient
so the speaker sounds the same outside as when
it's inside. You make the selection, we'll do the rest!
Simply rotate the speaker control knob until
the speaker mode you desire is illuminated, then
push to select it. As seen above, we selected Live Inside.
