Auto Gain
Soft key 1 is accompanied by the text Auto Gain. When pressed, this key toggles the Auto Gain
function on or off. When Auto Gain is on, the Gain fader will move automatically to compensate for
any further adjustments made to the graphic faders in order to maintain unity gain for an ‘average’ audio
signal.
Auto EQ
Soft key 2 is accompanied by the text Auto EQ. This function is used when the DN3600 is connected
to a Klark Teknik model DN60 Real Time Spectrum Analyser via their respective “DN60 Interface”
and “Plotter Interface” ports.
When the key is pressed, the DN3600 reads the frequency spectrum as displayed at that moment by
the DN60 analyser. Fader adjustments are then applied to the selected channel (A, B or - in LINK
mode - both) to compensate for the analysed room or system response.
Q Type
Soft key 3 is accompanied by the text Q Type. When the key is pressed, the addressed channel toggles
between the Q modes: 360 and 27. The Q mode is shown as text at the top of the screen.
The Q mode determines the shape, and hence the sound and interaction, of the graphic filters. Q:360
emulates the wide and hence smoothly combining and easy to use filters of the industry standard Klark
Teknik DN360 Graphic Equaliser. Q:27 emulates the narrower and hence less interactive LCR filters
of the older Klark Teknik model DN27 Graphic Equaliser.
Exit
Soft key 4 is accompanied by the text Exit. When this key is pressed, the unit returns to the start up
menu.
