Audio Control Screen

The user may activate the soft saturation feature by altering the top line to SOFT SATURATION
MODE.
When activated, the audio signal is amplified by two (6dB boost), and signal peaks are compressed
gently to avoid digital saturation. The feature emulates magnetic tape saturation.
DC offset removal:
The Model AD122-96 MKIII converts signals down to DC (0Hz). The total DC offset (due to DC
offset within the audio signal and the offset of the converter itself) can be removed. Removing the
offset sets the lower line to DC REMOVAL ON.
DC removal should be activated prior to processing of audio, to allow for some settling time (less then
3 seconds) and to avoid a "click" sound. The algorithm continues to monitor and correct for slow
varying offset variations.
Polarity:
+POLARITY corresponds to analog input signal connection with "pin 3 hot". -POLARITY
corresponds to analog input signal connection with "pin 2 hot".
Note that polarity reversal works for both balanced and unbalanced analog input signals. The analog
inputs (XLR connectors) are physically wired for "pin 3 hot" phase. Activating polarity reversal is
done digitally (after the conversion).
