2.9 Activating the Key Lock
on the DFC
The key lock safeguards the DFC against tampering
and accidental activation of functions. Activate it
by clicking the Keylock button. The lettering of the
Keylock On button turns red to indicate the key
locking mechanism is activated. Deactivate the
key lock by clicking the Keylock button again. The
Keylock button reads Off and turns grey.
2.10 Adjusting Master Channel
Strip Settings
The master channel strip (appropriately labeled
Master) lets you adjust settings such as level, delay,
and so forth for the entire DFC. These settings
apply to all frequency bands of outgoing signals.
(see Fig. 16 a).
Master channel level
The virtual Level fader in the master channel strip
determines the level of the entire DFC. To adjust
the level, click the virtual fader's knob using the left
mouse button, hold the button down, and drag
the mouse up or down. Once you have dragged the
virtual fader to the desired position, release the left
mouse button.
Master channel delay
Click the Delay display in the master channel strip
to set the delay for the entire DFC. Once you have
clicked the display, you can delete the given delay
setting and type in a new setting. The two buttons
located next to the Delay display give you another
option for setting delay time. Click one of them to
step through delay times in predefined increments.
Depending on the selected delay mode (as defined
by the Delay Mode option in the Options menu),
delay settings are indicated in milliseconds, meters
or feet. The delay display appears in red to indicate
delay settings other than zero.
Reversing the master channel's phase
Click the Phase rev. button in the master channel
strip to reverse the phase of the entire DFC. When
phase reversal is activated, the lettering on the
Phase rev. button changes from Off to On and its
color from grey to red. To deactivate phase reversal,
click the Phase rev. button again.
Mute and solo
Click the Mute button in the master channel strip
to mute the entire DFC. When mute is activated,
the lettering on the Mute button changes from Off
to On and its color from grey to red. To deactivate
mute, click the Mute button again.
Click the Solo button in the master channel strip to
mute all connected DFCs with the exception of the
given DFC (Solo-In-Place function). When solo is
activated, the lettering on the Solo button changes
from Off to On and its color from grey to red.
To deactivate solo, click the Solo button again.
Note: If you attempt to close the Adjustment for
Controller window while solo is activated, the
following message appears: Attention!!! Solo still
activated. You will not be able to close the window.
2.11 Adjusting the Bass, Mid
and High Channels
See figure 16 b. The three channel strips Bass, Mid
and High let you determine level, delay and other
settings for the given frequency bands before routing
signals from the DFC to connected speakers.
This lets you handle biamped systems as (virtual)
active three-way systems.
Adjusting levels
The virtual fader Level in the Bass, Mid and High
channel strips determines the level of each frequency
band for the given DFC.
To adjust the level, click the virtual fader's knob
using the left mouse button, hold the button down,
and drag the mouse up or down. Once you have
dragged the virtual fader to the desired position,
release the left mouse button.
Adjusting delay time
You can set a delay time of up to 100 ms for each
frequency band (Bass, Mid and High channel
strips) of the given DFC via the Delay display
in the respective channel strip. This serves to
align clusters and compensate for discrepancies
in response time caused by the given stacked
configuration, for example, to align subwoofers
stacked on the ground with tops flown overhead.
Important note: Ensure midrange and high frequency
delay times are identical; otherwise you will encounter
alignment problems within a single speaker cabinet.
Once you have clicked the display, you can delete
the given delay settings and type in new values.
The two buttons located next to the Delay display
give you another option for setting delay time.
Click one of them to step through delay times in
predefined increments.
Depending on the selected delay mode (as defined
by the Delay Mode option in the Options menu),
delay settings are indicated in milliseconds, meters
or feet. The delay display appears in red to indicate
delay settings other than zero.
