manual abstract
Its high degree of flexibility enables the set up and optimization of active multiway systems with variables previously unavailable in a single-rack-space device. The unit can be configured in two-way stereo, two-way dual mono, three-way mono with a direct out and four-way mono. Functional blocks in the unit include high- and low-pass filters, tunable low-cut filters to extend the low-end response of bass cabinets, parametric equalizers, low- and high-shelving equalizers, limiters and delays. The Dx34 addresses many different sound system configurations. The Dx34 is factory programmed for the Electro-Voice MT-4 four-way systems, MT-2 and PI modular three-way systems, MH stadium horn systems and portable sound reinforcement systems. Additional listings of parameter values for other EV components and systems can be downloaded off the Electro-Voice BBS at 616/695-4791 (8,N,1). The unit can be set to operate in one of two modes. Preset mode allows the user to select factory presets from a list of loudspeaker cabinets and only gives the user control of the limiter parameters at each output. Full-edit mode provides access to all parameters, allowing adjustment and saving of all settings. A total of 16 user presets is available. The A/D/A conversion in the Dx34 is done with linear 18-bit converters. The input A/D section is a 64-times oversampled sigma-delta convertor and the output D/A is oversampled eight times. Internal resolution is 24 bits, using the Motorola DSP56004 processor. All inputs and outputs are electronically balanced with XLR-type sockets. These inputs and outputs can be retrofitted with isolating balanced transformers. EV part number TRB-5 is the optional input transformer. EV part number TRB-4 is the optional output transformer. FEATURE SUMMARY • 1st-, 2nd- and 4th-order Bessel, Butterworth and Linkwitz-Riley, 3rd-order Bessel and Butterworth filter responses. • 2nd-order tunable low-cut (high-pass) filters with up to 6 db (Q = 2.0) of boost to extend the low end response of bass cabinets. • 6- and 12- dB slopes on the low- and high-shelving EQ. Gain range is ±12 dB for both low-shelve slopes, ±12 dB for the 6-dB high-shelve slope and +6, -12 dB for the 12-dB high-shelve slope. • Two parametric EQ’s in the high-pass channels for horn equalization. The Q range is from 0.4 to 20. Gain range is ±12 dB. • Up to 10-ms individual channel delay with a resolution of 21 ps. • Delay units are selectable in distance or time. • Polarity switch on each output channel. • Digital gain stage with a range of -24 to +6 dB. • Individual output channel limiters with adjustable threshold, decay rate and hold time. • “Lock-out” feature to prevent unauthorized use. • “Slow,” “peak hold” and “no peak” meter display modes. • MIDI addressable. • MIDI dumps to save and transfer user presets. • Mutes on each output channel.
