Advanced
Range: On or Off
Select “on” to gain access to the following “advanced”
level parameters. Once you are in advanced mode you
no longer benefit from automatic “unity gain” calculations
described on the previous page under the Input Gain
section. On the other hand you will have full control of
the level parameters.
Boost Max
Range: 0 to 10 dB
This setting determines the max range of the boost
function. As 0 dBFS is the max level in the digital domain
digital “boost” is done by attenuating the general level
and releasing this attenuation when boost is required.
If you use the Advanced mode and the boost function,
the Output Range parameter can be adjusted to ensure
unity gain through the unit.
If you select advanced mode but never use the Boost
function at all, set the Boost Max parameter to 0 dB.
Output Range
Options: 2 dBu, 8 dBu, 14 dBu or 20 dBu
Which output setting to select depends on the set InGain.
The higher the InGain is set, the lower the Output Range
parameter should be set.
MENU - LEVELS
Boost
Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just hit a single switch
and boost the entire signal for a few important phrases?
With the NOVA System boost function it is easy. Via the
Levels Advanced menu a max boost level between 0 and
10 dB is set. Within the Boost max level you can set up a
boost level for individual presets.
- press LEVELS to access the levels menu
- select “Advanced” and set this parameter to “on”
- scroll to BoostMax and set your boost max level
- then exit the menu and select the preset you want to
set up a boost level on.
- press DRIVE and set the boost level within the Boost
Max range.
Additional parameters for the Boost function:
Boost Lock:
Range: On or Off
When Boost Lock is set to “on”, you are able to boost the
amount of dB specified by the Boost Max. parameter on
ALL presets. The Boost Lock parameter is found in the
Utility menu.
Boost Level:
The boost level can be set for each preset within the
range of the Max Boost parameter. This range is set in
the Levels menu.
