ISP Technologies BETA BASS - Manual (Page 2)

INTRODUCTION
The Beta Bass Processor offers the professional bassist the highest level of performance that only ISP
Technologies can provide. By incorporating our patented Time Vector Processing, the compression
circuitry becomes the most adaptive to be used in a bass processor as it allows the Beta to truly track the
signal of the exact notes played. Add in the patented Decimator Noise Reduction Technology, and you
have the only bass processor on the market with built in noise reduction! With two parametric bands (a
low mid and a high mid), bass, treble, bright and an exciter (for phase manipulation), the Beta lets you
shape your sound to your own specifications. For unsurpassable performance, pair the Beta Bass with
the ISP Technologies Bass Vector or Bass Vector Pro cabinets and get up to 4000 watts of bass
depending on your choice of configuration!
Please read this manual carefully for a full explanation of the Beta Bass Processor and its functions.

POWER REQUIREMENTS
This unit accepts power from the 9V AC power adaptor supplied with the unit. This 9V RMS
AC voltage is internally processed by a voltage doubler, which generates a bi-polar + and –
15V power supply to maintain the headroom and sound quality of professional, studio
quality equipment. Using an external power source minimizes excessive noise and hum
problems often associated with internal transformers, providing optimal performance for the
user.
