As a reminder, in order for the 

Settings

 data to be entered, or any changes to register with the DSP 

system, you must click on the 

Apply

 button, and then the 

EXIT

 button.  This procedure must be done 

for each of the 

Settings

 choices, or the change or data entered will be lost.

NOTE:  The parameters in the Settings menu DO NOT carry over from any Preset files, they do 

not Save into a Preset, nor do they Load when a Preset is loaded.  So each cabinet will have to be 

adjusted individually.  Once this has been done, the Presets will not change these parameters, and 

there need be no concern about the Settings parameters changing with a load-in of a Preset.  The 

Settings parameters CAN be loaded in using the Project function, but only under special conditions.  

See the Project section in this Owner’s Manual for details.

Section 5

FW Update

This section allows for a firmware update to the DSP operating system, something that will only be 

done on an infrequent (if ever) basis.  Contact Crest Audio/Peavey Electronics for information on 

whether a firmware update is available or desirable, or check the following URL page:

https://peaveycommercialaudio.com/versarray

Instructions for an update will be provided at that time as needed.

Section 6

Identify

This function is not active on the Versarray™ Pro 218 Sub. 

Section C

Volume

Up and Down buttons provide for changing the Level of the audio signal.

Factory default is 0 dB, with a range down to -6 dB in 2 dB steps.

There are rear panel buttons that provides for the selected Level to be chosen as well.

These Level choices become handy when manually adjusting the level of the Subs for the number of 

VR112 Pro cabinets in the array.

Section D

Sensitivity

Click to choose buttons allow selection of 6 dBu or +12 dBu sensitivity of the Analog input 

(XLR in) of the Versarray™ Pro 218 Sub system.  The Factory default is +6 dBu, and the gain 

structure of the rest of the DSP based preamp system has been based on this sensitivity level.  If the 

+6 dBu is too sensitive for your requirements, then you can select the +12 dBu option instead with no 

penalty in performance or noise.

With the Input Sensitivity set to +6 dBu, it takes 1.75 VAC RMS to drive the Versarray™ Pro 218 Sub 

system to full power output on music.  That would change to 3.5 VAC with a change of the Sensitivity 

to +12 dBu.

Note that with the Sensitivity set to +12 dBu, it might be more likely that the input stage could be 

overdriven and clipped.  Checking the Input Clip Indicator in Section B would be advisable if it is felt 

necessary to engage the +12 dBu sensitivity setting.

Section E

Polarity

.

A click to choose button allow selection of either Normal (default and indicator blank or white), and 

Inverted, where the indicator turns red.

Normal Sound Reinforcement practice is to keep the Subwoofer polarity correct with respect to bass
