Fredenstein Bento 10D Rev. A Module Carrier
In the audio menu the input signal for slots 2 to 10 can be selected. (Slot 1 always gets its input
signal for the XLR connector located on the back-panel). By turning the wheel the desired slot can
be selected and by pushing the wheel the value toggles between XLR for the slots input XLR
connector or the output of the slot to its left. Selecting Exit will show the Setup Menu again.
The Compressor Buss menu defines the links between the Pin 6 of the slot connectors.
This is a standard feature and is widely supported by many 500 series module manufactures.
But different manufactures and even different models from the same manufacturer can have
different signals on the compressor buss. To avoid malfunctions and potential damages to modules,
the compressor buss can be split into multiple segments or completely turned off.
Select the adjacent slots you want to connect to the next slot to its right and push the wheel to toggle
the function between off and on. As an example, the Bento 10D is loaded with five pairs of different
compressors, same compressors adjacent to each other, then you would engage the linking between
slot 1 and 2, slot 3 and 4, slot 5 and 6, slot 7 and 8, slot 9 and 10, while slot 2, slot 4, slot 6, and slot
8 would be turned off. If you are using different types of compressors, you must keep them on
separate segments of the buss. Selecting Exit and pushing the wheel will show the Setup Menu
again.
Ten different setups can be stored. By selecting Memory and push the wheel and the number of the
setup is highlighted, turn the wheel to the number you want to use, then press the wheel to store the
configuration. Selecting Exit and pushing the wheel will show the Setup Menu again.
