Each amplifier channel is equipped with an independent signal
generator offering pink noise or a sine wave signal.
The generator can be used to check the connected loudspeakers or to
identify room resonances, for example. The generator is inserted in the
signal path after the delay and before the loudspeaker equalization.
The test tone will sum with any input signal present.
Notes:
As a precautionary measure the frequency generator will
always be off (Mode = off) after the D12 is powered on.
The frequency generator provides the Pilot Signals for the
"Load
Monitoring"
function.
When
using
"Load
Monitoring" the frequency generator function is not
available and a message is given as shown in the graphic
opposite.
