Madrigal Imaging N38 - Manual (Page 18)

18
The Nº38 Preamplifier has many provisions for custom-tailoring the
system’s operation to match your preferences. The consistent method
for modifying any of these settings is to enter a Set-Up mode by
pressing and holding a button for several seconds; the setting is then
modified, either by pressing a button or turning the volume knob; and
then the new preference is confirmed by pressing and holding the
original button again for several seconds.
This three-step process is simple and logical, yet ensures that changes
which affect the operation of the preamplifier must be made quite
deliberately.
To facilitate operation in complex multi-source systems, the Nº38 is
capable of displaying a wide variety of
aliases, or alternative names,
for each of its six inputs. They are listed below.
NOT USED (any unused input)
ssp Surround Sound Processor
EQ Equalizer
DAT Digital Audio Tape
VCR Video Cassette Recorder
CAS Cassette
RTR Reel-To-Reel
DCC Digital Compact Cassette
MD Mini-Disc
CDR Compact Disc, Recordable
CDI Compact Disc, Interactive
DBS Direct Broadcast Satellite
PH Phono
LD LaserDisc
CD Compact Disc
TUN Tuner
AUX Auxiliary
DAP Digital Audio Processor
DCA Digital Cable Audio
PCD Proceed Compact Disc Player
PDP Proceed Digital Audio Processor
No30 Mark Levinson Nº30 Digital Audio Processor
No35 Mark Levinson Nº35 Digital Audio Processor
Each alias is normally followed by a number corresponding to the
number of the input being used. (The exceptions being the aliases
“No30” and “No35” for the corresponding Mark Levinson digital audio
processors.) Thus, a DAT in Input 3 would normally display a DAT3. In
this way, you can have more than one CD player, for example, and
still tell at a glance which one is selected.
There is also a special alias to indicate that an input is NOT USED.
The factory default input alias is NOT USED for each input except AUX1
and AUX3, which were configured for the Quick Start portion of this
manual. Any or all input aliases (including these) may be changed
easily to match the configuration of your particular system.
