ULTRABASS  BX4410/BX4410A

3. WIRING EXAMPLES

+

When  the  built-in  limiter  is  activated,  the  LED  below

the  OUTPUT  control  lights  up.

Connect  the 

SEND/TUNER

  output  to  the  input  of  your

effects  device,  for  example,  our  proven  multi-effects

processor BEHRINGER VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP2024P.

This output can also be used to connect your tuner.
Connect  the 

RETURN

  jack  to  the  output  of  your  effects

device.  Since  the  BX4410/BX4410A  features  a  serial

effects  path,  the  mix  ratio  must  be  set  on  your  effects

device.
Use the balanced 

D.I. 

XLR output to feed the audio signal

from your ULTRABASS to an external mixing console. The

D.I. signal is wired post-EQ.
Use the 

LINE OUT

 jack to connect your BX4410/BX4410A

to a mixing console that has no balanced inputs and/or to

provide a signal that is independent of all settings adjusted

on the BX4410/BX4410A.

+

The  LINE  OUT  output  is  wired  post  effects  loop 

 and can also be used to feed the output signal

of  your  BX4410/BX4410A  to  an  external  bass  amp.

Use  the 

POWER

  switch  to  switch  the  BX4410/BX4410A

on or off. You should always make sure that the POWER

switch is in the “Off” position when initially connecting the

unit to the mains.
To disconnect the unit from the mains, pull out the main cord

plug. When installing the product, ensure that the plug is

easily  accessible.  If  mounting  in  a  rack,  ensure  that  the

mains can be easily disconnected by a plug or by an all-pole

disconnect switch on or near the rack.

+

Please  note:  Merely  switching  the  unit  off  does  not

mean  that  it  is  fully  disconnected  from  the  mains.

When  not  using  the  unit  for  prolonged  periods  of

time,  please  unplug  the  unit’s  power  cord  from  the

power  outlet.

MAINS CONNECTION

. Use the power cord supplied with

the unit to connect it to the mains.

FUSE  HOLDER/VOLTAGE  SELECTOR

.  Before

connecting the unit to the mains, make sure that the voltage

setting  matches  your  local  voltage.  A  blown  fuse  should

only be replaced by a fuse of the same type and rating. On

some units, the fuse holder can be switched to one of two

positions, i.e. 230 V and 120 V. When operating the unit

outside Europe at 120 V, a higher fuse rating is required.

The  internal  speakers  of  the  BX4410/BX4410A  are

connected  to  the  1/4"

  SPEAKER

  output  jacks.  They  can

also be used to connect external loudspeakers. For further

speaker  connection  you  find  a  professional  loudspeaker

connector (compatible to Neutrik

®

 Speakon

®

).

+

Your  speaker  cabinets  should  have  a  sufficient

power  rating  (>450  W)  and  preferably  a  total

impedance  of  4 

W

  to  avoid  speaker  damage.  Too

high  a  load  impedance  will  decrease  the  output

power  rating  of  the  power  stage!

+

For  correct  speaker  connection  please  also  refer

to  chapters  3.3,  3.3.1  and  6.2.1!

3. WIRING EXAMPLES

This chapter is aimed at describing and illustrating basic wiring

examples.

3.1 Standard setup comprising footswitch

and

The standard setup is intended for rehearsals, sessions and

club gigs.
