Gain
Adjusts the level for a specific filter (+/- 18 dB).
Q
Adjusts the range of frequencies affected by the filter. As this value increases, the bandwidth decreases.
Width
Adjusts the range of frequencies affected by the filter. The value is represented in octaves.
Note:
The Q and width parameters affect the equalization curve in the same way. The only difference is the way the values are represented.
Delay
If you're installing loudspeakers in a large area, you may need to time-align some speakers using delay. This ensures that the
signal arrives to all parts of the room at the same time for even coverage.
Delay range: 0-160 ms
Limiter
Use the limiter to prevent output signals from clipping or distorting. To use, enter a dBFS
value for the threshold. With the lim
iter enabled, the output signals will not exceed the threshold.
Note:
This loudspeaker also has an internal safety limiter to protect the hardware. This limiter only turns on if the output signals reach the loudspeaker's maxi
mum sound pressure level (SPL).
Signal Generator
The signal generator plays 4 different signals to help you tune your system and balance sound levels. Dante inputs get by
passed when you use the signal generator. The signal generator is pre-EQ, so you can apply EQ to the signal.
Gain adjustment at 0
dB
is referenced to 76
dB SPL
at 1 meter.
Pink noise
Equal energy per octave. Use to check levels and to verify coverage in multi-speaker installations.
White noise
Equal energy at each frequency. Use to check levels and to verify coverage in multi-speaker installations.
Sine wave
Plays a tone at the selected frequency. Use to check levels, assess comb filtering effects, and identify possible standing
waves.
Sweep
Plays a tone at every frequency that the loudspeaker can reproduce, starting from the lowest frequency and sweeping up
to the highest. Use to identify possible mounting deficiencies, such as rattling or buzzing.
Muting the Loudspeaker
The loudspeaker has multiple mute points for different scenarios:
Dante Input Mute:
Mutes the selected Dante input channel.
