OPERATION
are excellent general-purpose presets for stations playing post-1980 recordings of
various genres of popular music.
IMPACT MX:
IMPACT
MX
is intended for CHR and similar formats where attracting a
large audience (maximizing cume) is more important than ensuring long time-spent-
listening. This very loud, bright, “major-market” preset has a great deal of presence
energy that cuts through on lower-quality radios.
Its sound changes substantially as the
L
ESS
-M
ORE
control is turned down—distortion
decreases while bass punch and transparency improve. Therefore, exploring various
L
ESS
-M
ORE
settings is very worthwhile with
IMPACT
, because, for many markets, this
preset will be “over the top” if it is not turned down with
L
ESS
-M
ORE
.

INSTRUMENTAL: An alias for the
JAZZ
preset.
JAZZ:
JAZZ
is an 8500 preset specifically tailored toward stations that play mostly in-
strumental music, particularly classic jazz from the LP era (Coltrane, Mingus, Monk,
etc.). It is a quiet preset with a very clean, mellow high end to prevent stridency on
saxes and other horns. It preserves much of the qualities of the original recordings,
doing light re-equalization. The preset produces very low listening fatigue, so it is a
good choice for stations that want listeners to stay all day. Stations programming
classic jazz should also investigate the
MELLOW
JAZZ
MX
preset.
Stations programming “smooth jazz” should investigate the
SMOOTH
JAZZ
MX
pre-
set, which is louder and more “commercial”-sounding. There is also an 8500-style
SMOOTH
JAZZ
preset available.
LOUD: There are several
LOUD
presets, all of which use “8500-style” technology and
typically have 18 ms of latency. We have not made MX versions of the
LOUD
pre-
sets; we retained these presets in the 8700i mainly for historical reasons. Most were
first introduced with Optimod-FM 8400 and some 8700i users may have custom pre-
sets based on them.
Before deciding to use a preset in the LOUD family, broadcasters wanting high
loudness and dial impact should investigate the
CRISP
MX,
EXTREME
MX,
IMPACT
MX,
and
GREGG
MX
presets.
GREGG
MX
’s loudness is comparable to the
LOUD
pre-
sets;
CRISP
MX,
EXTREME
MX,
and
IMPACT
MX
are somewhat louder.
In order to get the punchiest and loudest sound, beyond
L
ESS
-M
ORE
=7.0 we pro-
gressively reduce the protection provided by the distortion-controlling mechanism.
So
L
ESS
-M
ORE
settings beyond 7.0 are progressively more risky and can exhibit audi-
ble distortion.
LOUD-HOT+BASS
is very bright and present, with up-front vocals. Release time is
medium. It is tuned for the maximum amount of bass we could add without creating
obvious distortion on some program material. For maximum punch, it uses the
HARD
bass clipper at higher
L
ESS
-M
ORE
settings.
