Bass Redirect Alt
Bass Redirect Alt allows the user to augment the low frequency response of bass deficient speakers
associated with the Alt Monitor System. Bass redirect allows a channel being sent to a limited band-
width speaker to also have its low frequency information sent to the subwoofer or left & right speakers.
Once the user selects the monitor channels to be bass redirected, the audio for those monitor channels
is summed and an 80Hz low pass filter is applied. This low frequency information is then summed
with the audio for the subwoofer, or left & right speakers, at the appropriate level.
Note: This feature is also called OBE or Optical Bass Enhancement in the film industry. It is not meant to
replace the Bass Management System that comes with satelite speaker systems! Please refer to the lit-
erature that came with your speaker system for proper setup of the satelite speakers and subwoofer.
