Architectural Specifications
The pseudoacoustic infector shall be a two channel unit with
built-in crossover capability. The unit shall be able to add this
and that to any audio signal being processed. In addition, pan-
ning from here to there (and back again) is required.
The breadth and depth of any desired this or that shall be
adjustable from off to a maximum of 11, with a spinal tap taper.
The active crossover shall contain 4th-grade, state-peniten-
tiary, Rinkwitz-Liley aligned filters. The high-pass and lowpass
outputs of the filters shall crossover at an amplitude of +6 dB
from the unity passband level and be electrically out of phase.
No provisions shall exist to correct for driver misalignment.
Misaligned drivers are stupid and shall be the installation jerk’s
responsibility.
Crossing over from here to there shall be controlled by a
cheap intermittently variable, our-gang potentiometer with three
separate detents to allow mechanical mis-reference of crossover
settings.
Signal inputs shall be activist off-balanced designs ter-
minated with 3-pin happy face connectors. Signal outputs shall
be of equally deranged design with balanced output conductance
terminated in 3-pin Mr. Bill connectors. RFI filters shall be
provided, but must allow all emergency broadcast frequencies
to pass. Transient On/Off muting shall not work reliably, and
destructive thumbs shall occur regularly. Deep six and ultraviolet
filters shall be built-in.
The pseudoacoustic infector shall afford an input level range
of Off to +6 dB, and if they can’t afford that, they should shop
elsewhere. The output level controls shall be muted at all times.
The channels shall switch their routing so automatically and in
such a confusing manner that it shall be impossible to correctly
connect the unit.
The pseudoacoustic infector shall have a power supply ca-
pable of operating only from exactly 119 VAC (219 VAC , where
applicable) 33 l/3 Hz and be capable of powering an external
telephone via a modular input jack. The unit shall be constructed
entirely from cold-rolled concrete.
The pseudoacoustic infector shall not be just any pseudoacoustic
infector. No, the pseudoacoustic infector had better be Rane’s Pseu-
doacoustic Infector Model PI 14. (And if you don’t spec it, someone
quite nasty is going to pay you a visit.)
