PROCESSOR USE: General Guidelines and Preset Description

IMPORTANT! Please read before operating this Digital Signal Processor with your audio system.

General Use Guidelines for Freely-Configurable DSP

This is a professional level DSP product that allows the user to produce virtually unlimited signal processor variations and configurations. Because of the infinite configuration possibilities of digital signal processing, it is possible to create configurations that may result in unwanted signals or uncontrollable output.

The Signal Manager software has no way of knowing if the DSP configuration you have designed will produce the results you intend. You can create signal loops in a configuration that may oscillate and damage your sound system if applied to the unit. When applying an untested configuration or when designing or experimenting with this unit, it is a very good idea to turn down the amplifier’s physical gain controls. That way, you won’t damage your speakers or create very loud sounds if you apply a configu- ration that doesn’t do what you thought it would.

As a general rule, DO NOT CREATE SIGNAL LOOPS! Do not mix the output of a DSP object back into its own input! There is nothing useful to achieve by doing this, you will only create an oscillator that could damage your speakers. Also, USE THE SINE AND NOISE GENERATOR OBJECTS WITH GREAT CAUTION! These functions produce signals that can harm your speakers. Start with lowered gain settings. If you don’t hear a signal when you think you should, DO NOT INCREASE THE GAIN!!! If the signal isn’t audible at lower levels, there is something else wrong. Turning up the gain to full exposes you and your system to the possibility that some loose connection somewhere will suddenly send a full-amplitude signal through your sound system.

Like all freely configurable signal processing tools, this DSP will do what the configuration your design tells it to do, which may not be what you expect it to do, so use caution.

NOTE! The factory setting for all eight Preset memories is wire- through. Signals are passed from input to output without any processing. Each Processor must be configured as desired by the user. You may select configurations from the sample files (*.cfg) within Signal Manager or create your own.

ISIS 215PCM specifications

The QSC Audio ISIS 215PCM is a powerful loudspeaker designed to meet the demands of professional audio applications. Known for its exceptional sound quality and robust construction, the ISIS 215PCM is engineered to deliver a superior listening experience in various settings, including live events, concerts, and installations.

One of the main features of the ISIS 215PCM is its dual 15-inch low-frequency drivers, which provide deep, resonant bass and a wide dynamic range. This design allows for high SPL (Sound Pressure Level), making it suitable for large venues. The enclosure is strategically designed to enhance performance by minimizing distortion, thus ensuring clear audio reproduction even at high volumes.

The ISIS 215PCM is equipped with a high-frequency compression driver coupled with a wide dispersion horn. This combination yields excellent high-frequency response and seamless integration with the low-frequency drivers. The dispersion pattern has been meticulously engineered, enabling consistent sound coverage throughout the audience area, which is essential in live sound applications.

In terms of technology, the ISIS 215PCM features advanced acoustic design principles that optimize both performance and durability. The enclosure is constructed from high-grade plywood and reinforced to withstand the rigors of touring and installation, while the dual ports facilitate enhanced airflow and reduced turbulence, resulting in accurate sound reproduction.

Additionally, the loudspeaker employs a sophisticated passive crossover network that effectively separates frequencies, allowing each driver to operate within its optimal range. This technology minimizes phase issues and ensures that the transitions between the low and high frequencies are smooth and natural.

Portability is another significant characteristic of the ISIS 215PCM. It includes robust handles for easy transport and installation, making it a great choice for sound engineers and technicians who need to set up and break down equipment regularly. The professional-grade connections further enhance convenience and reliability in diverse applications.

Ultimately, the QSC Audio ISIS 215PCM is a remarkable loudspeaker that combines innovative technologies, premium materials, and thoughtful design. It is ideal for audio professionals seeking a reliable solution that delivers exceptional sound quality and performance. With its versatility and robust features, the ISIS 215PCM stands out as a formidable choice for both live sound and permanent installations.
