Integrated Processing Features

PureBand™ Crossover System:

The PureBand™ Crossover System provides a variable state Linkwitz-Riley 24dB/octave fi lter allowing you to choose a point between 50Hz and 3kHz on 1/12th octave centers. The following points are available for choice:

50Hz, 53Hz, 56Hz, 59Hz, 63Hz, 66Hz, 70Hz, 74Hz, 79Hz, 83Hz, 88Hz, 94Hz, 99Hz, 105Hz, 111Hz, 118Hz, 125Hz, 132Hz, 140Hz, 149Hz, 157Hz, 167Hz, 177Hz, 187Hz, 198Hz, 210Hz, 223Hz, 236Hz, 250Hz, 265Hz, 281Hz, 297Hz, 315Hz, 334Hz, 354Hz, 375Hz, 397Hz, 420Hz, 472Hz, 500Hz, 530Hz, 561Hz, 595Hz, 630Hz, 667Hz, 707Hz, 749Hz, 794Hz, 841Hz, 891Hz, 944Hz, 1.00kHz, 1.06kHz, 1.12kHz, 1.19kHz, 1.26kHz, 1.33kHz, 1.41kHz, 1.50kHz, 1.59kHz, 1.68kHz, 1.78kHz, 1.89kHz, 2.00kHz, 2.12kHz, 2.24kHz, 2.38kHz, 2.52kHz, 2.67kHz, 2.83kHz, 3.00kHz

Along with your choice in crossover frequency, the PureBand™ Crossover System also provides you with four modes to choose from:

Crossover Mode (CH1=LPF, CH2=HPF): When selected, this mode enables a LowPass Filter on Channel 1 and a

HighPass Filter on Channel 2 at the frequency that you have chosen.

Note: This mode will automatically put the input mode into “Input Y”.

LowPass Mode (CH1=LPF, CH2 = LPF): When selected, this mode enables a LowPass Filter on both Channel 1 and Channel 2 at the frequency that you have chosen.

HighPass Mode (CH1 = HPF, CH2 = HPF): When selected, this mode enables a HighPass Filter on both Channel 1 and Channel 2 at the frequency that you have chosen.

Bridge Mode (either LPF or HPF): When bridge-mono mode is selected, the crossover system still allows you to select a LowPass or HighPass fi lter at the frequency that you have chosen.

For instructions on setting up the different crossover system settings, please see the “Get Started” section at the beginning of this manual.
