Application Guide
• The
Speaker Preset
menu enables a set of
speaker parameters to be adjusted, and preset
configurations to be created.
• Speaker Presets can be simply applied to the
selected amplifier output or imported, chosen
from a library, exported or cleared. The preset
configurations can include any or all of the
parameters described in Section 5.3.4 and can
be locked to prevent inadvertent modification.
Diagrams 4i
to
4k
illustrate the application of
speaker presets.
Speaker Preset
data provided by third parties for
use with specific speakers can be imported and
applied to amplifier outputs. To import speaker
preset parameters follow the steps described
below and illustrated in the diagrams.
1. Select either the
IMPORT PRESET FROM
FILE
or
SELECT PRESET FROM LIBRARY
option from the Speaker Preset menu. If
no import option is visible, select
CLEAR
to
delete any existing speaker preset data.
Note: The SELECT PRESET FROM LIBRARY option will
be unavailable if no speaker preset libraries have
been created. Speaker preset library creation and
management is described in Section 5.3.5.
2. Select the appropriate ‘.zcp’ format speaker
preset data file to import from either a
Library or a computer folder. The preset
data will be applied to the selected
amplifier output as soon as the file import is
complete.
3. If the Speaker Preset data requires
modification it can be customized by
selecting the CUSTOMIZE PRESET option.
Note: If an imported Speaker Preset data file includes
locked parameters, they will be unavailable for
modification.

• The
Crossover & Gain
preset menu enables high
or low-pass crossover filters and gain adjustment
