Channel Level (Output Channels)

The Channel Level is used to adjust master output levels. To access the Channel Level

screen, press the Level button found on the output processing menu. Subsequent button presses will toggle the display between OUT1 to OUT6. Use the <SELECT> button to navigate between the selectable Level parameters (-100.0dB to

+6.0dB). Adjust the value by using the up/down VALUE arrows.

Limiter threshold values are determined by the amplifiers and loudspeakers that are used in the system. One important consideration in setting the limiter threshold value is the input sensitivity and gain of the connected amplifiers. Because different amplifiers can have different sensitivities, it is common to need to calculate the limiter offset to a factory preset based on the amplifier sensitivity. The DC-One offers a unique solution to this problem with the Amp parameter. All EV Factory Presets include limiter threshold values. You may use the Amp parameter to select the model of EV amplifier that you are using and the limiter threshold offset will be automatically calculated based on the amplifier gain and sensitivity. When an amplifier is selected from the list, the actual Threshold parameter will be locked to ensure that proper settings are maintained. It is very important to ensure that the proper amplifier is selected from the list, as an improper selection can result in incorrect Limiter settings for your system and may result in system damage. If a non- EV amplifier is used in the system, selecting “Other” from the amp list will allow the Threshold setting to be directly edited, however, the amplifier documentation should be consulted so you can calculate you limiter offset (if any) as needed. The Amp parameter is only available when using a Factory Preset.

Speaker System specifications

Electro-Voice, a brand renowned for its high-quality audio solutions, has long been a pioneer in the speaker system market. The Electro-Voice Speaker System offers a diverse array of products designed to cater to a multitude of audio needs, from professional touring to installation in venues and home use.

One of the standout features of the Electro-Voice speaker systems is their innovative design, which combines durability with aesthetic appeal. Constructed with rugged, weather-resistant materials, they are built to withstand the rigors of touring while maintaining exceptional performance in various environments. This makes them a popular choice for live sound engineers and musicians alike.

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. Whether for professional sound reinforcement or personal audio enjoyment, these systems facilitate a remarkable audio experience that has become synonymous with the Electro-Voice brand.
