3-Way Crossovers
A 3-way crossover splits the input signal into three frequency channels: low, mid, and
high. Four slope types are available: 12 dB/octave, 24 dB/octave, 36 dB/octave, and
48 dB/octave.
Each 3-way Crossover component features one input and three outputs: High, Mid,
and Low.
Since the only difference between all the 3-way Crossover components is the filter slope,
only the 3 Way 12 dB/octave control window is shown here.
Each 3-way Crossover control window features a crossover graph and INPUT, LOW,
MID, and HIGH sections.
The crossover graph at the top of the window displays the crossover settings graphically.
A vertical dotted line indicates the crossover frequency of each channel: “L” for low, “M”
for mid, and “H” for high.
Note that the Gc controls (not shown here) appear only when an Adjustable Gc type
SLOPE & TYPE filter is selected.
