2.Press the SELECT encoder knob to enter the parameter screens for your chosen EQ band.

3.Press the UP / DOWN arrow keys to switch between parameters. The chosen parameter will appear highlighted.

4.Rotate the SELECT encoder knob to change parameter values.

5.Choose the equalizer type (Type): OFF, PEQ (parametric), low shelving (LS6, LS12), or high shelving (HS6, HS12).

6.Set the frequency (Freq) for each EQ band by rotating the SELECT encoder knob. The programmed frequency can represent either the center frequency for parametric mode, or the cutoff frequency for low and high shelving modes.

7.Set the EQ band’s cut or boost (Gain) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

8.For parametric mode, control the width of the parametric curve by tweaking the Qual parameter. High Qual values produce a narrow, steep curve, while low Qual values create a wide curve with a gentle slope.

9.Press the SELECT encoder knob or the EXIT button to return to the top-level PEQ screen.

XOVER

The XOVER module offers programmable pairs of high- and low-pass filters. STEREO and BRIDGE modes possess only one filter set (A#1). DUAL, BIAMP1, and BIAMP2 modes use two filter sets (A#1 and B#1), and in BIAMP1 and BIAMP2 modes, these two sets of filters may be linked.

On the top-level screen, vertical dotted lines indicate the threshold point for each filter.

Each low-pass and high-pass filter also offers multiple options for filter type and slope: OFF, Butterworth (BUT6, BUT12, BUT18, BUT24, BUT48), Bessel (BES12, BES24), or Linkwitz-Riley (LR12, LR24, LR48).

Programming filters/bi-amping crossover

1.Choose between filter sets A#1 and B#1 by rotating the SELECT encoder knob (DUAL, BIAMP1, and BIAMP2 modes only).

2.Press the SELECT encoder knob to enter the parameter screens.

3.Move up or down between parameters by pressing the UP / DOWN arrow buttons.

4.Choose between filter types for high-pass (HPtype) and low-pass (LPtype) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

5.Set the filter thresholds for high-pass (HPfreq) and low-pass (LPfreq) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

6.Set the filter’s overall signal gain (Gain) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

7.Set the link parameter (LinkAB) to ON or OFF by rotating the SELECT encoder knob (BIAMP1 and BIAMP2 modes only).

8.Press the SELECT encoder when finished to return to the top-level XOVER screen.

DEQ

The DEQ module deploys a dynamic EQ that is triggered by a programmable signal thresold. For example, you can program the dynamic EQ to cut or boost increasing amounts of mid frequencies as the signal gets louder beyond your preferred threshold.

STEREO and BRIDGE modes feature one set of dynamic EQs (A#1 and A#2), while DUAL, BIAMP1, and BIAMP2 modes feature two sets of dynamic EQs (A#1, A#2, B#1, and B#2). Each dynamic EQ may be set to OFF, band-pass (BP), low-pass (LP6, LP12), and high-pass (HP6, HP12).

Programming dynamic EQs

1.Choose between dynamic EQ sets by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

2.Press the SELECT encoder knob to enter the parameter screens.

3.Move up or down between parameters by pressing the UP / DOWN arrow buttons.

4.Choose between EQ types (Type) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

5.Set the frequency (Freq) for each EQ by rotating the SELECT encoder knob. The programmed frequency can represent either the center frequency for band-pass mode, or the threshold frequency for low- and high-pass modes.

6.For band-pass mode, control the width of the band-pass curve by tweaking the Qual parameter. High Qual values produce a narrow, steep curve, while low Qual values create a wide curve with a gentle slope.

7.Set the dynamic equalizer’s cut or boost (Gain) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

8.Set the signal threshold (Thresh) by rotating the SELECT encoder knob.

9.Program your desired ratio (Ratio). Similar to a compressor, higher ratio values yield a more intense equalization effect.

NU3000DSP, NU1000DSP, NU6000DSP specifications

The Behringer NU series, including the NU6000DSP, NU1000DSP, and NU3000DSP, represents a significant advancement in lightweight, high-performance power amplification. These amplifiers are particularly well-suited for live sound applications, installations, and professional audio environments, providing reliable power alongside cutting-edge features.

Starting with the NU6000DSP, it delivers a remarkable 6,000 watts of output power, making it an ideal choice for large venues and outdoor events. One of its standout features is the built-in Digital Signal Processor (DSP), which allows users to customize sound with precision. The DSP offers functionalities like equalization, crossover, and limiting, enabling users to tailor audio output for different settings and requirements. Additionally, the NU6000DSP has an efficient fan cooling system, ensuring optimal performance without overheating during long gigs.

Next in the lineup is the NU3000DSP, which provides up to 3,000 watts of power. This model retains many of the same advanced features as its higher-powered sibling, including the DSP capabilities. The NU3000DSP is favored by mobile DJs and small to medium-sized event spaces for its balance of power and portability. Its lightweight design, coupled with a durable construction, makes it easy to transport without sacrificing performance. Additionally, it includes a variety of input options, making it compatible with numerous audio sources.

Finally, the NU1000DSP, the most compact of the trio, delivers 1,000 watts of power. It is perfect for smaller venues or as part of a larger rig. Despite its size, it features the same high-quality DSP technology, allowing users to maintain character and control over their sound. The NU1000DSP is designed with user-friendly controls and a clear LED indication for monitoring levels.

All three amplifiers utilize Class D technology, which contributes not only to their lightweight design but also to their energy efficiency.
