CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS 206LA PRESET: Selects 8 presets, each of whom corresponds to a specific speaker configuration according to users' personal preferences and to the acoustics of the listening area (see PRESET section.) HF LEVEL: Adjusts the volume of the driver and of one waveguide to be used in a range between -5dB and +5dB. With this level, the upper array modules can be set to obtain greater HF output power, thus reaching distant areas, and to attenuate the lower modules for a lower SPL towards the first rows of the venue;...

Never other accessories when assembling cabinets than the ones provided by FBT: FBT will decline responsibility over the entire MITUS accessories range if any component is purchased from a different supplier. DELAY: Control of a digital delay line acting on the input signal; in this way it is possible to make up for the vertical misalignment of sub and satellite.

ROTATABLE HORN 112 / 112A 115 / 115A MITUS 112 and MITUS 115 models have an asymmetrical dispersion rotatable horn. By removing the fixing screws of the horn it is possible to rotate it so as to change the dispersion angle when the speakers are used in horizontal position or when they are aligned in an array.

80-120Hz range. -HUNG with INFRA: The system is composed of two different SUBs, MITUS 212FSA flown over MITUS 206LA and MITUS 118SA or MITUS 121SA laid on the ground. This type of system is the most complete and suitable to reproduce sound in great events and over huge areas, most of all outdoor, since it permits obtaining a more even distribution of low frequency energy over the whole listening area.

- The system is composed of two different SUBs, MITUS 212/FSA and MITUS 118SA or MITUS 121SA, all laid on the ground. This type of system is recommended when you want to use all the SUBs available in order to increase the SPL but the MITUS 212FSA cannot be flown.
CARDIOID CONFIGURATIONS The lack of directivity at low frequencies is a problem affecting many sound reinforcement systems; this directivity can be controlled by lining up an array of direct radiation subwoofers according to patterns that concentrate diffused energy in one or more directions. As for all frequency ranges, the sum of the energy of two subwoofers can lead to both 6db sums and complete cancelling (when the sound waves are 180°...

CONNECTORS The 3-pole XLR connectors are almost always used for conducting mono-balanced signals; the three poles correspond respectively to ground (1), the positive signal (2) and the negative signal (3). SPEAKON is a connector which is specially adapted for connecting power terminals to loudspeakers; when inserted in an appropriate socket it locks so as to prevent accidental disconnection;...

BIAMP CONFIGURATION 4 x MITUS 206L + 2 x MITUS 118S The Bi-amp system requires a stereo amplifier; basically it is possible to connect the tweeter cables to one of the channels of the main amplifier and the woofer cables to the other one, 2+ 2- thus guaranteeing high sound fidelity, higher dynamism and a significant SPL increase.

When low frequencies have to be extended, the MITUS 212FSA subwoofer perfectly complements the MITUS 206. Compact and capable of a very high SPL, in relation to the size, it features two 320mm custom made neodymium magnet B&C woofers with band-pass configuration.

ACCESSORIES MITUS models feature a suspension system embedded in the bearing structure. The only elements to be added (accessories) to realize complete arrays are: the MT F212 flybar for the configuration with subwoofer on top and the MT J206 joint bar between sub and satellite; the MT F206 flybar for configuration with satellites; the MT B206 metal base to ground satellites or to stack over the sub;...

HOW TO ASSEMBLE THE SYSTEM IN A VERTICAL ARRAY ( 206LA/L - 212FSA/FS ) The configurations suggested by this manual were verified through computer modelling and operational testing; even in recommended configurations, before hanging any MITUS system check the relevant load limits. Special attention was paid to the selection of materials and the manufacturing so as to permit high safety levels.
This check shall be carried out by the person responsible for the flying structure. FBT accepts no responsibility for any damage to people or objects if these instructions are not complied with or if the safety factor of all elements related to system suspension are not properly checked.

All speakers are tested with a 6dB crest factor, where the ratio between the average voltage and the pulse voltage supplied to the system exceeds or equals 2; FBT recommends using an amplifier with an RMS power that doubles the long term power so as to wholly preserve the dynamics of the speakers and guarantee the integrity of the music signal.

GLOSSARY SWITCH MODE POWER SUPPLY A unit that, before making the power available for internal use in the amplifier, converts the AC power supply into a much higher frequency thanks to a switch mode circuit. The advantages of a switch mode power supply are its lower weight and reduced electromagnetic emissions.
