5. Bass Boost Control

Ordinary wireless systems all sound somewhat thinner (with less bass) than hardwired. This is due to (1) natural side effects of the noise reduction circuitry employed, and (2) lack of the high-frequency roll-off normally caused by longer hardwired cable runs. Adjust the BASS BOOST (15) control to add back low frequency content in your signal as desired. This is a low-pass filter, with up to 6 dB of gain, over flat respsonse centered in the 30-300Hz, when turned fully clockwise. The normal wireless sound is with the control left fully counterclockwise.

6. Connecting the Audio Output

The U-33B receiver provides both a fixed mic level BALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT XLR

(7)and an adjustable line level UNBALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT 1/4" JACK (10). The level from the UNBALANCED OUTPUT is controlled by the rear panel VOLUME CONTROL (8).

Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the UNBALANCED OUTPUT JACK (10) on the rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into an amplifier, effects, or mixing board. Adjust the VOLUME CONTROL (8) on the U-33B receiver clockwise to maximum rotation, until the volume level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughly equivalent to a direct instrument cord connection.

(Note: You can connect both outputs at the same time for added versatility in use. For example, simultaneously hook up the UNBALANCED AUDIO OUTPUT (10) to your bass amplifier and the BALANCED AUDIO OUPUT (7) to the FOH mixer.)

(Note: As when making any connection, make sure the amplifier or mixing board volume is at the minimum level before plugging in the receiver to avoid possible sound system damage. Also make sure that the phantom power on the input of the mixer is turned OFF before making connection to the receiver.)
