Output Level - Electro-Voice Dx46 Mode D'emploi

O DELAY
UTPUT
To access the Delay screen, press the SPEAKER Delay button. Subsequent button presses will toggle
the display between OUT 1 to OUT 6.
HINT: The Dx46's output delays can be used to compensate for the positioning of cabinets or
speaker arrays relative to each other or the original sound source, for example aligning the PA
to the stage or aligning the full-range loudspeakers to the subwoofers. The Output Delay
parameter determines the delay time of the corresponding channel or the distance between
different loudspeaker clusters.
Use the <SELECT> buttons to navigate between Active/Bypass, Delay and Unit. The values for each parameter
can be adjusted using the up/down VALUE arrows. The delay time or physical distance is displayed in milliseconds,
microseconds, feet, inches, meters, or centimeters.
O LEVEL
UTPUT
The Output Level is used to adjust master output levels. To access the Output Level screen, press the
Level button. Subsequent button presses will toggle the display between OUT 1 to OUT 6.
Use the <SELECT> button to navigate between the selectable Level (-100.0dB to +6.0dB), Polarity and Amp pa-
rameters. Adjust the value by using the up/down VALUE arrows.
Limiter threshold values are determined by the amplifiers and loudspeakers that are used in the system. One impor-
tant consideration in setting the limiter threshold value is the input sensitivity and gain of the connected amplifiers.
Because different amplifiers can have different sensitivities, it is common to need to calculate the limiter offset to a
factory preset based on the amplifier sensitivity. The Dx46 offers a unique solution to this problem with the Amp pa-
rameter. All Dx46 Factory Presets include limiter threshold values. You may use the Amp parameter to select the
model of Electro-Voice amplifier that you are using and the limiter threshold offset will be automatically calculated
based on the amplifier gain and sensitivity. When an amplifier is selected from the list, the actual Threshold parameter
will be locked to ensure that proper settings are maintained. It is very important to ensure that the proper amplifier
is selected from the list, as an improper selection can result in incorrect Limiter settings for your system and may
result in system damage. If a non-Electro-Voice amplifier is used in the system, selecting "User" from the amp list
will allow the Threshold setting to be directly edited, however, the amplifier documentation should be consulted so
you can calculate you limiter offset (if any) as needed. The Amp parameter is only available when using a Factory
Preset.
