The six DIP switches in the

section of the DSP Profile allow the response of
the BOOM-1 output to be fine tuned to suit the specific type and model of tactile device as well as the
mounting method that you are using. Drum thrones, keyboard seats, platforms, performance stools, etc.,
all have natural resonant frequencies that can enhance and/or detract from the response of a given tactile
transducer device connected to it. The result is some frequencies being augmented and made more
prominent while others are diminished. In addition, the tactile transducers themselves have resonances
that can be smoothed out to produce a more even, more musical response when combined with any
given mounting method.
The table below offers settings for a variety of mounting methods and some specific models of tactile
transducers.
The DIP switches on the rear panel provide the following settings:

HPF
Two high pass filter (HPF) settings are available. The default position for the high pass filter (HPF) is down.
This setting rolls off non-musical components (like rumble) sent to the transducer output from 15Hz and
below. When the switch is up, the HPF cutoff is moved higher, near 20 Hz.
