10. TUTORIAL

This is a consecutive tutorial. I would like to advise you to go entirely through it. It might seem a bit
exhausting or even boring at first, but i am sure you will gain a lot of impressions and ideas about 'eb-
be und flut' . It is importand to work with all of the panel components at least one time. The sockets on
the rearpanel will not be covered here. They will be almost self explaining as soon as you have been
through the tutorial.

10.1 Preparations

Make sure, that all devices (mixer, amplifier, active speakers, ebbe und flut) are powered down. Connect
the unit with your other audio equipment just the way described in chapter 6.4.
Use e.g. a synthesizer with a simple monophonic signal as a source. Use a saw-wave or something with
equal overtone richness. Use a simple organ-like on/off envelope on this sound. It should not be a
complex signal but just a simple sustained tone.
Power up all devices in succession, best you start with 'ebbe und flut' . So a certain noise when powe-
ring up will remain inaudible. Proceed with mixing desk, amplifier resp. active speakers.
Bring the control elements of 'ebbe und flut' to a basic setting.
