Operation
SPORTS: Similar to NEWS-TALK except the AGC Release (AGC Release Time) is slower and the Gate Thresh (Gate
Threshold) is higher. This recognizes that most sports programming has very low signal-to-noise ratio due to crowd
noise and other onfield sounds, so the preset does not pump this up as the NEWS-TALK preset would tend to do.
ROCK: We have included many of the 8500-style ROCK presets and have intentionally tuned them for a smooth,
mellow high frequency balance, which can complement female-skewing formats.
ROCK-DENSE, ROCK-MEDIUM, and ROCK-OPEN provide a bright high end and punchy low end (although not as
exaggerated as the URBAN presets). A midrange boost provides enough presence energy to ensure that vocals stand
out. A modest amount of high frequency coupling (determined by the Band Clipping 3 > 4 setting) allows reasonable
amounts of automatic HF equalization (to correct dull program material), while still preventing exaggerated
frequency balances and excessive HF density. Dense, medium, and open refer to the compression density, which is
determined by the release time settings in the AGC and multiband limiter sections.
These presets are appropriate for general rock and contemporary programming. All of these presets have distortion
control implemented at their nominal levels of LESSMORE to ensure clean speech. At high LESS-MORE levels the
distortion control may be relaxed somewhat to increase bass punch.
ROCK-SOFT has a mellow, easy-to-listen-to high frequency quality that is designed for female-skewing formats. It is
also a candidate for "Quiet Storm" and "Love Songs" light rock or light urban formats.
ROCK-SMOOTH has the same mellow, easy-to-listen-to high frequency quality as ROCK-SOFT, but with more density.
Again, it is a good choice for female-skewing formats, but where you need more compression and density than you
get with ROCK-SOFT.
ROCK-MEDIUM+LOWBASS is an open-sounding preset with a lot of bass punch. Its Multiband Release control is set
to Slow2 so that the sound is relaxed and not at all busy. At the same time, the preset is competitively loud. It is an
excellent choice for "adult contemporary" and "soft rock" formats where long time-spent-listening is desired.
The SMOOTH JAZZ MX preset exploits the 5750's ability to produce more transient impact and lower distortion. For
either preset, if the loudness/distortion tradeoff is not to your taste use LESS-MORE to turn it down, producing lower
loudness with less distortion.
URBAN-LIGHT: This is an 8500-style preset that has been retained in the 5750 mainly for historical reasons; GREGG
MX, IMPACT MX, and EDGE MX are more contemporary sounding. URBAN-LIGHT is similar to ROCK-OPEN but with
a different bass sound. It uses the 3-pole (18 dB/octave) shape on the bass equalizer and is appropriate for light R&B
formats.

The 5750 HTML5 application allows you to adjust every parameter in the 5750 audio processor. Each block of
processing is accessible from tabs that are aligned between the meter display and the controls. In the following
pages we will step thru the controls tab-by-tab for an understanding of what you can accomplish with each.
To setup the connection of the browser with the processor, see page 2-27.
