and recall of complete input memory sets using a PC
card.
Input Setup Sub-menu: Used for ganging input EQ
and globally flattening all input EQ.
X-over Sub-menu: Used for storage and recall of
crossovers, including format, output EQ, output delay,
output gain, and limiter settings. Also used for design of
new crossovers.
Security Sub-menu: Used for locking various
features of the units, using a four digit code.
System Sub-menu: Used to view the units status,
and select various global options such as parametric EQ
‘Q’ or bandwidth units, and output meter monitoring

Notes
The crossover or output settings are stored and recalled
independently (using store/recall a X-Over) from the input settings
(using store/recall input memory).
The output meters show level, in dB, from the limiter threshold.
The input meters show level, in dB, from input clip.
The high and low-pass filters are defined independently on each
channel.
To access the limiter attack and release parameters, select ‘Auto
Limiter TC’ No, when designing a crossover.
To swap parametric filter units between bandwidth (‘BW’) and ‘Q’,
enter the ‘System sub-menu, select ‘Filter Q or BW’, and select
required readout units.
