SILENCE DETECT

INPUT FALLBACK – When the main input fails, the 5750 will switch to the selected input on this screen. The
options are ANALOG, Digital 1, Digital 2, AoIP 1, AoIP 2, or Stream.
SILENCE THRESHOLD – Sets the level at which all input audio below will start the silence delay clock. If audio
remains below this level longer than the silence delay time is set, the 5750 will switch to the selected backup
audio source. The level range is -20dB to -60dB. For classical and jazz formats, a lower threshold is suggested.
SILENCE DELAY – Adjustable from 2 seconds to 60 seconds (1 minute). If audio remains below the level selected
in the SILENCE THRESHOLD setting for longer than the period of time set here, the 5750 will switch to the INPUT
FALLBACK source.
If your input levels and modulation are set, it is time to pick a preset and adjust the sound. The following pages
will guide you thru the various adjustments and what they mean to achieving your signature sound. You can
follow along with the processing tabs from left to right.

PROCESSING PARAMETERS
