BBE 362SW - Manual (Page 5)

Product Description
The BBE 362SW is an intelligent audio processor and a sub-woofer filter network combined
into one unit. The true beauty of the BBE 362SW is in its ease of set-up and operation. The BBE
362SW is a ganged dual channel, single rack space device for use in -lOdBu unbalanced line level
applications.
The BBE portions of the BBE 362SW consist of a Function switch, Lo Contour control. Process
control and a pair of clip lights. The Function switch is for comparing the processed sound to the
direct sound. The Lo Contour control is for adjusting the level of phase corrected low frequencies
in the program material. The Process control is for adjusting the level of the phase corrected high
frequencies in the program material. Each channel output is monitored by a clipping circuit
which turns on a LED when the output level is at 3dB below true clipping.
The Sub-woofer Filter portion of the BBE 362SW consists of a Sub-woofer Frequency control
and a Sub-woofer Level control. The phase corrected low frequency information from both chan­
nels is summed together and directed through an 18dB/octave filter network. The Sub-woofer
Frequency control adjusts this filter, and has a selectable range from 30hz to 120hz. By simply
adjusting the Frequency control you can set the filter's frequency point of the Sub-woofer circuit.
For example, if you set the Frequency control to 40hz - then only the information below 40hz will
be sent to the Sub-woofer Output jack. The Sub-woofer Level control adjusts the output level of
the sub-woofer circuit. The level is adjustable from fully off to a gain of 6dB.
