User manual BBE SOUND 422A

[. . . ] For example, you should not place the product on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar surface that might block the vent openings, or placed in a built-in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that might impede the flow of air through the ventilation openings. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - If your appliance can be mounted to a wall or ceiling, mount it only as recommended. Accessories - Do not place this product on an unstable cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. The product may fall, causing serious injury to a child or adult, and serious damage to the product. [. . . ] 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. Placement either before or after an equalizer should have no negative effect on the unit or its processing ability, however most users find they prefer more modest use of their equalizers once the BBE Sonic Maximizer has been added to their sound systems. Instrument Racks The BBE Sonic Maximizer will deliver surprisingly good results in guitar, bass and keyboard rack systems. Electric guitars have added "bite", "chunk" and improved definition. As Guitar Player magazine said, "BBE is the most cost effective improvement you can add to your rig". Acoustic guitars processed with the BBE Sonic Maximizer have a breathtakingly natural sparkle and presence. Bassists will delight in the BBE Sonic Maximizer's ability to bring much more punch to the bottom end without muddying up the midrange. The BBE Sonic Maximizer is also great for keyboard rigs, with everything from the latest samples to a vintage Rhodes benefiting equally from the patented BBE process. Recording Systems The BBE Sonic Maximizer can be used as an effect on individual tracks or applied overall during mixdown. The BBE process works very well to liven up the final mix, which is why the BBE 882i model is popular for use in both project and professional recording studios. SET-UP The BBE Sonic Maximizer is connected into the chain in series with the signal path the same way a graphic equalizer or limiter would be connected. If both outputs are being used, a minimum of a 22k Ohm load per device is required. (The "load" is determined by the input impedance of the next subsequent component in the signal chain. ) The maximum output is rated at +18dBu. NOTE: Actual output level will vary due to the selected position of the BBE Process, and the actual input signal level. Although is can be either a 1/4" Phone Plug or an RCA Plug, it is recommended that only one input source is used. Both jacks are the same point electronically, however, due to the input/output impedance characteristics of most audio devices, a loss of signal may occur and/or damage to a component if both inputs are utilized. CHANNEL A: These connections function the same as CHANNEL B. WARNING!To prevent possible speaker or amplifier damage, always power-up peripheral devices first, wait 10 seconds, and then turn on the power amplifier.
