[. . . ] While there are differences among various speaker designs in the magnitude of their correction, the overall pattern of correction needed is remarkably consistent. PROdUCT dESCRIPTION The BBE 382i is a dual channel, single rack space device for use in -10dBu unbalanced level applications. There are two separate channels that share the same front panel Lo Contour control and Process controls for ganged-stereo operation. A single function button switches the BBE process on or off in both channels, which is useful for comparing the processed sound to the unprocessed sound. An LED next to the function button glows green when the BBE process is on and red when the process is off. The Lo Contour control is for adjusting the level of phase corrected low frequencies in the program material. The Process control is for adjusting the level of phase corrected high frequencies in the program material. APPLICATIONS Music and P. A. Systems The BBE Sonic Maximizer is a welcome addition to any live sound P. A. system because the BBE circuit dramatically improves the clarity and intelligibility of vocals and musical instruments. Night club and mobile DJ systems will also benefit greatly from the BBE Process, with more depth, detail and punch over the entire mix. When using in conjunction with an equalizer, the Sonic Maximizer should be added after the equalizer in the signal chain. In the event that the equalizer is being used for drastic tone alteration, then insert the Sonic Maximizer before the equalizer in the signal chain. When the switch is out, the process is off and the indicator LED is red. POWER: This switch controls primary power to the BBE 382i. Rear Panel Connections 1. FUSE: Insert a flat blade screwdriver into the fuse holder located in the bottom portion of the AC Power Cord inlet. Carefully pry the fuse holder free from its compartment to access fuse. AC SELECTOR SWITCH: This switch is set at the factory to match the AC power requirements of the country where it will be sold and should only be adjusted by a qualified technician. OUTPUT CHANNEL B: Each channel is equipped with an unbalanced 1/4" line level output jack that can deliver up to +20dBu into 1K Ohms. INPUT CHANNEL B: Each channel is equipped with an unbalanced 1/4" -10dBu line level input jack.

The BBE Sonic Maximizer is a line level signal processor and is to be connected prior to the power amp in any audio system. Significant damage may be inflicted to the bbe sonic maximizer or any subsequent component in the system in the event the output of a power amp is connected directly to the input of the BBE Sonic Maximizer. LIVE APPLICATION: NON-POWEREd MIXER Connect the BBE 382i to the output of the mixing console or external equlization, if used. The output of the BBE will drive either a crossover or a power amplifier directly.
