This function is carried out by means of
high-quality relays rather than placing any
additional electronic components in the sig-
nal path.
Gain Control
The gain of each channel can be set in 3 dB
steps from unity to 60 dB by means of the
21-position rotary gain control on the front
panel. The precision of this setting is within
±0.3 dB throughout its entire range.
Low-Cut Filters
To remove inaudible frequencies as well as
disturbing noise such as popping, wind or
microphone handling noise without affecting
the desired signal, the
SCHOEPS
VSR 5 offers
three switch-selectable low-cut filters with
40 Hz, 80 Hz and 120 Hz cutoff frequencies.
The currently active cutoff frequency is indi-
cated by the bright white illumination of the
corresponding switch.
Only one filter per channel can be active at
a time. The frequency can be changed simply
by pressing the corresponding switch. Each
filter can also be deactivated by pressing its
Front-panel features of the VSR 5 with phantom powering enabled and a microphone con-
nected, normal polarity, outputs muted, and 80 Hz selected as the cutoff frequency of the
low-cut filter.
Phantom powering is turned off.
Phantom powering is turned on, but no
microphone is connected.
