User manual BBE SOUND DI-100X

[. . . ] holds the power cord plug firmly and securely. If the power cord plug is loose, contact your electrician to replace the defective and unsafe AC Foreign Objects - Be careful that foreign objects and liquids do not enter the enclosure through openings. Cleaning - unplug this product from the wall outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol cleaners. [. . . ] When these complex relationships pass through a speaker, the proper order is lost. A lower frequency may reach the listener's ear first or perhaps simultaneously with that of a higher frequency. In some cases, the fundamental components may be so time-shifted that they reach the listener's ear ahead of some or all of the harmonic components. This change in the phase and amplitude relationship on the harmonic and fundamental frequencies is technically called "envelope distortion. " The listener perceives this loss of sound integrity in the reproduced sound as "muddy" and "smeared. " In the extreme, it can become difficult to tell the difference between musical instruments, for example, an oboe and a clarinet. conducted extensive studies of numerous speaker systems over a ten year period. With this knowledge, it became possible to identify the characteristics of an ideal speaker and to distill the corrections necessary to return the fundamental and harmonic frequency structures to their correct order. While there are differences among various speaker designs in the magnitude of their correction, the overall pattern of correction needed is remarkably consistent. 4 FRONT PANEL PROCESS CONTROL LOW CONTOUR CONTROL Regulates the amount of phase corrected bass frequencies. Regulates the amount of phase correction. IN/OUT TOGGLE SWITCH Engages the Sonic Maximizer Process. When the switch is pushed up, the BBE Process is on. When the switch is down, the BBE Process is off. 15dB PAD SWITCH This toggle switch selects the desired gain range of the DI-100x. When the switch is down, the DI100x is in normal mode. When the Pad switch is up, the DI-100x input is attenuated by 15dB. 1/4" INPUT CONNECTOR The 1/4" input connector of the DI-100x is unbalanced. The 1/4" input is designed for running instrument cables directly into the DI-100x. 1/4" THRU CONNECTOR This 1/4 " connector is wired in parallel to the Input connector and is used for continuing the connection to the instrument amplifier. 5 REAR PANEL BATTERY COMPARTMENT Use a standard 9Volt battery. Unplugging the input to the DI100x will turn the unit off and conserve battery life. XLR OUTPUT CONNECTOR The XLR output of the DI-100x is balanced. The XLR output is used for running from the DI-100x directly to the input of a mixing console. Note: The XLR and 1/4" output connectors can be used simultaneously. XLR Pin configuration: Pin 1 = Ground, Pin2 = Positive and Pin3 = Negative. POWER SUPPLY CONNECTOR Connect the included 9VDC power supply here. 6 1/4" UN-BALANCED OUTPUT CONNECTOR GROUND LIFT SWITCH When in the "lift" position Pin 1 of the balanced XLR output (ground) is disconnected. The 1/4" output connector of the DI-100x is impedance-balanced. [. . . ] The bill of sales indicates that the purchase date of the equipment is not within the warranty period. All non-warranty repairs are warranted for a period of 90 days from the date of service. is NOT LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES. Should the unit fail to operate for any reason, our sole obligation is to repair it as described above. [. . . ]
