Chapter 55: Studer A800

Hum Noise

The Hum Noise frequency is dependent on the setting of the

Equaliser (Em-

phasis EQ)

control (

page 550

). The frequency is 60 Hz when set to NAB (US)

and 50 Hz when set to CCIR (European).

Note:

When

IPS (Tape Speed)

is set to 30 IPS, the yellow

Equaliser (Empha-

sis EQ)

LEDs are not illuminated, indicating that the Emphasis EQ is set to

AES. However, in 30 IPS mode, the Equaliser switch can still be changed to
set the frequency of Hum Noise.

Hiss Noise

Just like the hardware, the amount of hiss is dependent on settings of the var-
ious controls. Overall Hiss Noise is set with this control, but may change
based on the Path Select, Tape Speed, Tape Type, Emphasis EQ, Cal Level,
Bias, Playback EQs, and Output Level controls.

Because hiss noise is an element of t ape playback, Hiss is disabled when

Path Select

is to INPUT.

Note:

Hiss timbre and level can change with Tape Type.

Studer A800 Latency

The Studer A800 uses an internal upsampling technique. This upsampling re-
sults in a slightly larger latency than most other UAD plug-ins. See

“Compen-

sating Upsampled Plug-Ins” on page 108

for more information.
