The programmable equalizer shall consist of one or two
channels; each channel shall have 14 or 28 bands, spaced on
ISO centers from 31.5Hz to 16kHz and be 1/3 or 2/3-octaves
wideall as specified elsewhere. The amplitude control
range of each band shall be +12dB and 15dB, adjustable in
1dB steps. The overall level range shall be ±12dB, adjustable
in 2dB steps. Individual bypass switches shall be provided for
each channel.
The inputs and outputs shall be active balanced/unbal-
anced designs terminated in 3-pin and parallel ¼" tip-ring-
sleeve (TRS) connectors. The input impedance shall be 15k
ohms, while the output impedance shall be 200 ohms,
balanced. Both shall be capable of processing audio signal
levels of a maximum of +20dBu. RFI input filters shall be
provided. A low filter shall exist with 18dB/octave slopes and
a corner frequency of 15Hz. The frequency response of the
unit shall be 3dB down at 15Hz and 45kHz respectively.
MIDI In, Out and Thru jacks shall be provided. All
controls shall be rubber-based pushbutton switches. Two
digital displays shall exist, one using green LED digits for
displaying amplitude information, and a separate red LED
display for system information.
The unit shall be exempt from agency safety requirements
and powered from a UL listed remote power supply
(120VAC), or meet IEC 950 requirements (230VAC) and
conform to the proposed AES RAP-6 design via a rear panel
input red modular plug. The unit shall be constructed entirely
from cold-rolled steel, and mount into a standard EIA relay
rack occupying 1U space.
The unit shall be a Rane Corporation Model MPE
Programmable Equalizer.
