INTRODUCTION

®

Thank you for choosing the BBE DS48 Speaker Management System. This
product will enable you to obtain the best possible performance from your
loudspeaker system. You can also reduce the amount of outboard gear that
is required to transport, set-up and operate as part of the sound system.

The DS48 offers many powerful functions. It is highly recommended that you
read through this manual before you begin connection and operation. For
those that are familiar with this type of device or if you simply can't wait to
hear how good your system will sound, a Quick Start section follows on
pages 4-5.

SOME TERMS THAT WILL BE USED IN THIS MANUAL:

Configuration: This refers to a particular group of settings, with
the primary parameter being the crossover type.

Program: A program is a configuration with either the factory
default or a user-created name.

Configuration and Program may be used interchangeably, though
a configuration must be programmed for a program to exist.

Parameter: A component of a setting such as the center frequen-
cy of one band of parametric EQ or the attack time of a limiter.

WARNING!

To prevent possible speaker or

amplifier damage, always power-up peripheral
devices first, wait 10 seconds, and then turn on the
power amplifier. Turn off power amplifier first, then
power-down peripheral devices.
