Output Gain Reduction Meters

Each output channel has a four-segment gain reduction meter that shows the effect of the output channel Limiter on output level; from 0dBu to -12dBu. Output limiting can be bypassed by entering Edit mode, selecting Output Channel Limiter and selecting a limiter threshold of +21 dBu (8.205V) or turning the Bypass parameter to “On”.

Output Channel Mute Buttons

Each output channel has a lighted Mute button. Pressing the Mute button turns off the output of that channel. The button lights red as an alert. Press the Mute button again to restore the output channel’s signal.

Output Channel Function Indicators

Each output channel has a four-segment function display for informational purposes only. For any given configuration possible with the DC-One, an output channel may be identified as a sub, low, low/mid, mid, mid/hi, hi or full range output. One or two adjacent LED’s are displayed to indicate all possible output bandpasses. (Full range is indicated by no lit LED’s.)

Preset Recall

The DC-One preset memory

provides 60 factory program presets Recall and can store up to 20 user presets.

(F01-F60, U01 – U20) Factory presets have been designed to represent common system configurations utilizing Electro-Voice

loudspeaker systems. User presets allow you to accommodate other system configurations and / or loudspeaker systems.

To recall a preset, press the front panel Recall button. The display switches to the Recall Preset screen and displays the next in a list of available presets in memory. Using the Value Up and Down buttons, select the preset to be recalled. Valid presets will display the preset name. Empty presets will display a “?”.

If the preset you are recalling is based on a configuration different from that of the current preset, the display will prompt, “Changing config can damage speakers”, to remind you that the new preset may not be appropriate for your system as it is currently connected. Press Recall again to confirm and load the new preset.

In terms of sound quality, Electro-Voice speakers utilize advanced technologies such as the patented Constant Directivity Horns, which provide broad coverage and minimize distortion. This is particularly crucial in larger venues, where maintaining clarity and presence can be a challenge. The use of high-performance transducers ensures that the audio output is balanced across all frequencies, delivering crisp highs, rich mids, and powerful lows.

Another impressive characteristic is the intelligent integration of digital signal processing (DSP) in many of their systems. This technology allows for precise control over sound customization, enabling users to tune their speakers for specific applications or venue acoustics. The DSP capabilities help optimize sound quality while protecting the system from potential damage due to overdrive or feedback.

Portability is another key aspect of the Electro-Voice speaker system lineup. Many models are designed to be lightweight and easy to transport, allowing for quick setup and takedown, making them ideal for mobile DJs and bands. Moreover, the flexible rigging options available with multiple models ensure that users can adapt the speakers' positioning to maximize sound performance.

Electro-Voice also emphasizes connectivity with modern audio systems. Many of their speakers are equipped with versatile input options, making them compatible with various mixing consoles, amplifiers, and other sound equipment. This flexibility simplifies integration into existing setups and enhances usability across different scenarios.

Additionally, the aesthetic design of Electro-Voice speakers, often featuring sleek lines and contemporary finishes, allows them to blend seamlessly into a variety of environments, from high-end venues to casual settings.

Overall, the Electro-Voice speaker system stands out for its combination of robust construction, superior sound quality, advanced technology, portability, and versatile connectivity options.
