CROSSOVER
A high-performance Crossover has been implemented on the ART 9-AX
engine, that allows an optimal match with selected RCF subwoofer
models.
The MIX OUT connector is reassigned to drive an external subwoofer
cabinet.
The preset list will grow in time when new subwoofer models will be
introduced. Two User locations are also available to save custom
crossover settings. RCF presets are read-only.
The available crossover parameters are:
-
SUB Level Trim [-12.0 dB…. + 12.0 dB], level offset between TOP and SUB output
-
SUB Delay [-10 ms…..+10 ms], delay offset between TOP and SUB output
-
SUB Polarity
-
LPF Enable, normally ON. You can turn the LPF off when the external SUB already has
internal filtering.
-
Crossover Frequenc: OFF, 20 Hz…. 160 Hz
Additional, non-editable filtering is inserted when an RCF model is selected, for optimal TOP/SUB
matching.
For USER 1 and USER 2, SAVE is enabled, while
other presets are read-only.
Internal, read-only presets have been created assuming specific subwoofer configurations; please follow the table below to correctly configure
the subwoofer unit connected to MIX OUT.
