Engage/Bypass Switch
The Engage/Bypass Switch is useful in system tuning when comparing the
differences between an equalized and non-equalized system. With the
switch in the IN position, all EQ functions are engaged and can be heard.
With the switch in the OUT position, all EQ functions except the input gains
and output attenuators are bypassed from the signal path. In Bypass mode, the
OEQ can be used at the front of the system as a line driver. The signal from
2
the source unit is amplified with the OEQ
will help overcome noise which may be picked up in the cable. The higher
voltage results in a better signal-to-noise ratio at the amplifier's input.
Engage
• OEQ Engage Mode allows all EQ functions to be heard
2
Bypass
• OEQ Bypass Mode allows all functions, except Input Gains and Output
2
Attenuators, to be bypassed
• An Alternative Line Driver can be made with the OEQ
mode and placing it near the front of the signal chain
