  • Page 23: Setting Dsp Parameters

    Setting DSP Parameters When you select DSP from the appliances web UI, the DSP page appears. Figure 7, DSP Page with Channel Drop-Down Menu From this page, you can adjust settings in the DSP. The appliance uses traditional processors (for example, Compressor, Limiter) for audio signals in the digital domain.
  • Page 24: Setting The Channel Level

    Selecting the Menu button displays other parameters. DSP parame- ters and the Mute and Level buttons are described in the following table: Table 6, DSP Page Mute Silences the audio. Level Adjusts the channel volume leve in 1 dB increments. Compressor Lessens the dynamic range between the loudest and quietest parts of an audio signal.
  • Page 25: Muting A Channel

    Muting a Channel You can mute a channel to cut off an audio signal and stop the pro- duction of sound. To mute a channel: Step 1 On the appliance Web UI’s main page, select DSP. Step 2 Select the Mute button for the channel that you want to silence.
  • Page 26: Table 7, Compressor Settings

    Step 4 Make desired adjustments using the controls described in "Compressor Settings” on page 18. Note: If you want to return to the factory settings, select the Reset icon that appears in the right corner. Step 5 Select Enable to apply the settings to the selected channel.

    Table 8, High Pass/Low Pass Parameters High Pass (Low Cut) This feature helps eliminate low frequency noise (signals of 100 Hz and below, such as background rumble from ventilation systems, etc.) and is used primarily with microphone level input. It is partic- ularly effective when hand held microphones are used.
  • Page 29 Table 8, High Pass/Low Pass Parameters (Continued) Low Pass (High Cut) This feature helps eliminate high frequency noise (signals of 8000 Hz and above) such as background hiss and sibilance (excessive "S" in vocals, etc.) and is used primarily with microphone level input. It is particularly effective when hand held microphones are used.
  • Page 30: Adjusting The Limiter

    Adjusting the Limiter A limiter is a compressor with a high slope that is used to prevent a signal exceeding a set decibel level. Limiters are used as safeguards against signal clipping. Limiter parameters are set per channel. Figure 10, Limiter Settings To adjust the limiter settings for a channel: Step 1 On the appliance Web UI’s main page, select DSP.
  • Page 31: Adjusting Outputs

    Table 9, Limiter Settings (Continued) Decay Sets the rate for turn off of the limiter after the signal is below the threshold. Decay range is 5 to 2300 milliseconds. RMSTC Sets how fast the limiter reacts to the above threshold signal. RMSTC range is 50 to 10000.
  • Page 32: Adjusting Parametric Equalizer Settings

    Step 5 Make desired Volume adjustments by adjusting the knob. Volume levels range from -15 to 0 for the Speaker Output and -15 to 15 for the Line Output. Adjusting Parametric Equalizer Settings A parametric equalizer is a multi-band variable equalizer that allows control of frequency amplitude (boost/cut), center frequency, and frequency bandwidth, or Q.
  • Page 33 Step 4 Adjust frequencies as desired, ensuring the Enable LEDs are green for each selected frequency. You can adjust the frequencies by moving the Freq knob or by double-clicking the knob and typing the frequency. When typing the frequency, only numeric values from 20 to 20,000 can be entered.

    Settings You can set select a name and a color for the input channel. Figure 13, Settings Parameters To adjust the settings for the channel: Step 1 On the appliance Web UI’s main page, select DSP. Step 2 Select the Menu button for the channel. Step 3 From the drop-down menu, select Settings.
  • Page 35: Signal Present

    Signal Present You can set parameters for when a channel accepts a signal. You can set specific parameters for each input channel and for the output channel. Figure 14, Signal Present Parameters To adjust the Signal Present settings for a channel: Step 1 On the appliance Web UI’s main page, select DSP.
  • Page 36: Table 10, Signal Present Parameters

    Step 4 Adjust the following settings as needed. Table 10, Signal Present Parameters Threshold Sets the threshold level, or at what level the Signal LED is illuminated. Hold Sets the number of milliseconds that the sig- nal light stays on after the signal is no longer present.
