Digital Drive User’s Manual
• Phase
–
Set the phase (delay) of the subwoofer’s output signal, 0 to 180 degrees
(adjustable in 15 degree increments).
• Polarity
–
Set your subwoofer’s polarity by toggling between positive (+) or negative (-).
This reverses the phase 180 degrees.
• Volume
–
Each preset can have its own volume separate from the master volume shown
in the setup column. When the master volume changes, the preset volume changes in
lock step.
• Contour Frequency
–
This allows you to set a frequency to boost or cut the signal to
your subwoofer in response to specific types of source material. These have been
preset at the factory according to the presets above, but any or all can be customized
to taste.
• Contour Level
–
This indicates the amount of boost or cut at the frequency specified in
the contour frequency. Again, this has been preset at the factory but can be adjusted
to taste.
• Theater/Music Indicator.
This setting affects the distortion limiting capabilities of the
digital servo system and allows you to choose between a “theatrical” subwoofer, a
“musical” subwoofer, or somewhere in
-
between. The scale is 1 for maximum theater
(least amount of servo gain) and 8 for maximum music (most amount of servo gain).
Other controls on the Setting Setup Screen:
• Auto On/Off Active/Inactive
–
When active, this control automatically shuts the
subwoofer off after approximately 15 minutes without any source signal. The woofer
automatically wakes upon receiving input signal again.
• Night Mode Maximum Volume
–
When the NIGHT mode button is pressed on the
remote, this setting is invoked. Night mode is indicated by the amber bar underlining
the VELODYNE logo. The subwoofer will not play louder than this volume level until the
night mode is defeated.
