Next to the display, the appropriate unit lights up to indicate the correct value which is being edited.

These eight LED illuminated units are very important with keys which can represent more than one

parameter.

Fig. 1.3: Function keys and jog wheel

With the 

jog wheel

, a continuous rotary control, you can freely edit the selected parameters. Turn the

wheel clockwise to increase the values or counterclockwise to reduce them.

+

When you press the PRESET key once, you can use the wheel to select a program directly,

which is shown by a dot lighting up in the display. While this dot is on, you can select a

program though its settings will not take immediate effect. When the jog wheel has not been

touched for a short time, the LED in the display disappears and the program is loaded.

7

Use the 

MAX. OUT LEVEL 

to set the output limiter. This value can be set from -48 to 0 dB. The dB

value will light up next to the numeric display. You can change the MAX. OUT LEVEL parameter from

peak to RMS mode by pressing the MAX. OUT LEVEL key for about 2 seconds. RMS means the setting

of an average level for the MAX. OUT LEVEL parameter. Peak stands for a peak value. To make clear

that you are in RMS mode “RMS” will light up in the display.

8

The Ultramizer function enables you to maximize the perceived loudness of the program material. The

ULTRAMIZER

 key gives you access to three parameters:

a) When pressed once the DENSITY (“DENS” will light up in the display) can be adjusted. The subjec-

tively felt density of the program material is the result of the amount of compression that is applied. The

DENSITY can be adjusted from 0 (no compression) to 100 (extreme dynamic gain reduction).
b) Pressed a second time, the SPEED of the Ultramizer function can be set (“SPED” will light up in the

display). This parameter is very important for the dynamic behavior which depends on the application.

Generally low SPEED settings are suited if the ULTRAMIZER is to work rather “inaudibly”. Higher

SPEED is required when short level changes should be levelled.
c) Pressed a third time, the RANGE can be set (“dB” will light up in the display). This parameter

determines the maximum amplification the Ultramizer function may use in order to achieve the desired

DENSITY and MAXIMUM OUTPUT LEVEL. The value can be adjusted from 0 to 24 dB.
For further information on the Ultramizer function please refer to section 2.1.1.

9

Use the 

3D SURROUND 

key to increase the stereo width of the signal. The settings can range from 0

(no processing) to 100.

10

The 

DENOISER 

key gives you access to two parameters which influence the process.

a) When pressed once, the 

THRESHOLD

 of the noise gate can be set (“dB” will light up in the display).

The value ranges from -90 to 0 dB. “OF” means the denoiser function is deactivated.

+

Please bear in mind that when the threshold number displayed is small, the threshold level in

fact is high and, consequently, only loud signals will pass. When, for example, the value is

lowered to -100 dB (referring to the digital maximum) every signal will pass.
