1
The IN/OUT switch activates the corresponding channel into operation. With the switch in the OUT
position, the unit is bypassed.
2
The LOW MIX control of the low band determines the amount of signal used for sound enhancement
(from zero to six). The setting depends on the application you are addressing.
3
With the BASS MODE switch you can define the sound effect of the bass processor. If the switch is on
(Tight) the bass will sound dry and punchy, whereas the released switch mode (Soft) creates a
warm and full bass.
+
Please note that the bass processor should be set carefully to avoid possible speaker damage.
Most near-field monitors are not capable of handling the bass produced by the DUALFEX PRO.
4
The TUNE control sets the lower cutoff frequency of the high-pass filter. Using this control you can
select the frequencies that are routed to the Natural Sonic processor. The cut-off frequency can be
adjusted within a range of 1 to 8 kHz.
5
The PROCESS control determines the function of the device. When turning the control in clockwise
direction, the Exciter function is activated, which increases the signals transparency and sharpness.
Consequently, the DUALFEX PRO can be adapted to the program material to suit the application on
hand as well as any personal sound preferences.
+
Please note that with classical program material, acoustic instruments or with output signals
that already include sufficient treble frequencies, the Enhancer setting should be preferred.
However, when processing, for instance, a slapped bass guitar, it is the Exciter setting
which should dominate.
6
The HIGH MIX control of the high band determines the amount of signal used for sound enhancement
(from zero to six). It would depend on the application as to whether a high-quality system is to be given
the finishing touch with the DUALFEX PRO, or whether maximum intelligibility is to be achieved in a
relatively poor sound reinforcement system.
