OPERATORS MANUAL

QUICK START

Great video is ready-made; great audio is harder to get, but a SSE 35 makes it a lot easier. Read at least this boxed
section and you'll be on your way toward great audio.
Hook-up is intuitive: In from the decoder; Out to the amplifiers. Just follow the silkscreened legends on the rear of the
unit. Use only high-quality RCA cables.
Set your Dolby Pro-Logic decoder's center channel to NORMAL Mode.
Familiarity with any other graphic equalizer makes you familiar with the SSE 35. If this is your first equalizer, be
gentle; it can overwhelm you. Use of a realtime analyzer is recommended; alternatively use an SPL meter and a test disc—
then try your ears.
Use the BYPASS switch as an aid in comparing equalized results with unequalized results. Pushbutton in and locked
(LED on) is the bypassed (unequalized) mode; pushbutton out and unlocked (LED off) is the normal equalized mode. See
the included Rane Note 132 for stereo or mono subwoofer tips. See the Operating Instructions on the back page for basic
alignment info.
Install the supplied security cover after completing all settings. Be sure the POWER light fits snugly into the hole in the
security cover.
NEVER CONNECT ANYTHING EXCEPT AN APPROVED RANE POWER SUPPLY TO THE RED MODU-
LAR JACK ON THE REAR OF THE UNIT. This is an AC input and requires a power supply exactly like the one
originally packed with your unit. See the full explanation of the power supply requirements elsewhere in this manual.
Have fun.
