16 : 5.4. Global Settings
16 : 5.4.1. Input gain
Set the maximum volume of the
input signal. The attenuator knob
on the interface board modifies
the signal volume in series with
the internal settings, it is possible
disabling the external gain in the
internal settings. In the Monitor view,
input gain behaves as attenuator with
a max value set than the gain value.
So, end user has the possibility just
to attenuate the signal.
16 : 5.4.3. Delay
The input signal can be delayed
by user definable amounts via the
delay processing block. Parameters
can be accessed
and set both from Advanced
view and Monitor view. Delay values
can be entered in the time domain
(us) or as physical linear distances
(in mm or in inches).
16 : 5.4.2. Polarity
The input signal can be phase
reversed by clicking on this button.
Polarity button is available for the
end user in the monitor view.
The Mute button is provided as
well to mute audio playback.
16 : 5.4.4. Safe mode and Mute
Some settings may bring to
system instability and critical
operating condition. The Safe Mode
button provides a protection against
critical settings: when activated, this
function will not allow the output
power to exceed a set limit (about
20W set on Power Limiter).
16 : 5.4.5. Parametric equalizer
A fully parametric equalizer processing blocks are available
to fine tune the system’s sound.
Each individual selected filter can however be enabled switching on the on/off switch. A list of parameter presets of commonly
used equalization schemes is available under Type combo box. For each kind of equalization, you can set Frequency, Q, Gain
(when available) using the sliding box. A log scale diagram of each filter’s effect is presented, the slider on filters allows
real time variations of filter parameters such as the filter’s central frequency, gain, Q.
