INTRODUCTION

This manual contains essential information on the installation and alignment of the CP65 Cinema Sound Processor. The CP65 supersedes the CP55 and is available in three versions:

CP65

The standard configuration, equipped for the reproduction of the following sound formats

•01 Mono–for all optical prints of any vintage with conventional mono optical (“Academy”) sound-tracks.

•04 Dolby Stereo A-type

•05 Dolby Stereo SR

•10 Dolby Stereo Digital-with the addition of an external digital adapter

•60 Non-sync

•Mag / Aux–This format may be programmed in a number of different ways. Possible options include:

•Magnetic sound-tracks without A-type noise reduction.

•Extra sound sources, such as a Magnetic follower/dubber, PA microphone with preamp or a “stereo” synthesizer.

CP65-A

Equipped with A-type noise reduction only. Reproduces the same formats as the standard CP65 with the exception of 05 Dolby Stereo SR.

CP65-300

Equipped with two Cat. No. 300 modules in place of the Cat. No. 350 SR modules. Cat. No. 300 SR/A processors contain both A-type and SR circuits and these additional two channels of A-type along with the channels in the Cat. No. 222 modules are used to decode 70 mm Dolby Stereo magnetic soundtracks (format 42).

About this manual

This manual is intended to be used by individuals who are qualified in the area of cinema sound service. The basic day-to-day operation of the CP65 is covered in the CP65 Operator’s Guide.

With J24 in the “NR” position input signals will be A-typedecoded when the Mag/Aux format is selected. With J24 in the “NO NR” position signals pass through the noise reduction modules but the processing will be turned off. If both of these processing options are required frequently an external switch may be connected to J24J1 Optical Bass Extension output level sets the output level range for the subwoofer channel. In the HIGH position J1 is set at the factory for a power amplifier input sensitivity of between 90 mV and 1.23 V. If the power amplifiers used in the installation are very sensitive 10 mV to 100 mV input sensitivity, it may be necessary to set J1 to the LOW position. If you are unsure of the sensitivity of your power amplifiers set J1 to the LOW position initially. If the high output position is required this will be determined during OBE alignment Card Descriptions selected projector.

Aligning the B-Chain SECTION AN OVERVIEW OF THE ALIGNMENT PROCEDURE1. Aligning the A-Chain and with a broad range of speakers. Accurate equalization requires the use of standardized acoustic measurement procedures Many loudspeakers used in theatres are far from ideal and require boosting of the low- and high-frequencyextremes in order to produce an approximation of the standard reference response curve. Bass and treble controls-centeredon the turnover points of typical loudspeakers-liftthe ends of the spectrum without the need for large amounts of narrow- band boost from the third-octavecontrols in the Cat. No. 64 cards. The third-octavecontrols are used for minor adjustments that are required to smooth the frequency response curve SECTION A-CHAINALIGNMENT a. Preliminary Procedures Notes a.
