Setting the crossover points

Select the band to be edited by pushing the parameter wheel to cycle through
inputs and outputs. Note the LEDs above each channel change as the screen
changes.

Once the band has been selected, press the UP/DOWN keys until the first
crossover (Filter shape - Low slope) screen appears. Select the type of filter
shape by using the parameter wheel to cycle through the selection. Refer to
section 9.0; Outputs Menu
for more info on crossover filter shapes. Pushing the
UP key from here will move to the Filter Frequency (Low slope) screen. Use
the parameter wheel to select the frequency. The high slope screen are then
access after this screen by pushing the UP key (once or twice).

Band delays

Use the UP/DOWN keys until the delay screen appears. The delay is adjusted
using the parameter wheel. Default settings for display and adjustment of
delay is in meters (m), but can be changed to milliseconds (ms), or feet/inches
(ft).

Bands can also be linked so multiple outputs can be delayed as one using the
delay link facility.

Adding EQ

Use the UP/DOWN keys to move to the EQ screen. The EQ shape can be
edited first. The shape of the EQ can be selected from one of the following by
turning the parameter wheel:

Hi-Shelf with 12dB slope (Hi12)
Hi-Shelf with 6dB slope (Hi6)
BELL
Low-Shelf with 6dB slope (Lo6)
Low-Shelf with 12dB slope (Lo12).

Pushing the UP key from the EQ shape screen will access the following
screens, in this order:

Filter Frequency screen
Cut/Boost screen
Filter Bandwidth screen

Setting the limiters

There are two screens associated with the limiters of the FDS-355, which
allow you to:

Turn the limiters on/off
Adjust the limiter threshold..

In the limiter on/off screen, turning the parameter wheel will select whether
the limiters are on or not. Pushing the UP key from this screen will access the
limiter threshold screen, and turning the parameter wheel will change the
threshold. The output meters are calibrated to this threshold, so the threshold
will show as '0' on the meter at all times, even if the limiters are off. The
thresholds are indicated in dBu, but can be changed to mV via the Limiter
Units screen in the utilities menu.
