SETTING UP THE S curve 215 SETTING UP THE S curve 215 Setting up your S curve 215 Graphic Equalizer is a simple procedure which takes only a few minutes: 1. Remove all packing materials (save them in case of need for future service) and decide where the unit is to be physically placed—it can be used free-standing or mounted in a standard 19" rack (The S curve 215 requires only a single rack space). 2. Make sure the power to all mixers and amplifiers in your audio system is off. On the front

SETTING UP THE S curve 215 7. Press the front panel Power switch in order to turn on the S curve 215. Press the Bypass switches in to activate the equalizer. Note that audio signal will be muted for approximately five seconds until the relay power-on circuitry is activated (at which time you’ll hear a click and the audio signal will be unmuted). 8. Apply an input signal to the S curve 215 (if sending signal from a mixer output bus, drive the mixer’s output meters at approximately 0 VU). W

S curve 215 System Configurations Using the S curve 215 with Active Speakers In this example the mixer’s left and right outputs are connected to the S curve 215’s Channel 1 and Channel 2 inputs. Then, the S curve 215’s Channel 1 and Channel 2 outputs are connected to the inputs of the active (self-powered) loudspeakers. Using the S curve 215 with Passive Speakers In this example the mixer’s left and right outputs are connected to the S curve 215’s Channel 1 and Channel 2 inputs. Then, the S cu

S curve 215 System Configurations Using the S curve 215 in Insert Points You can use the S curve 215 in your mixer’s insert points if you want to equalize one stereo, or two mono channels, individually in the mix. In this example, the S curve 215’s Channel 1 INPUT and OUTPUT are inserted on a piano channel using a 1/4-inch TRS to 2 x 1/4-inch TS “Y” cable. The S curve 215’s Channel 2 INPUT and OUTPUT are connected to the bass guitar channel using the same type of insert cable. For more informa

S curve 215 System Configurations Using Two S curve 215’s for Mains and Monitors 10 In this example, two S curve 215’s are used for the stereo main and for the 2-channel monitor mix. The mixer’s left and right outputs are connected to the first S curve 215’s Channel 1 and Channel 2 inputs for the main PA speakers. Then, the first S curves 215’s Channel 1 and Channel 2 outputs are connected to the inputs of the power amplifier for the main speakers. For the monitor mix, the mixer’s AUX1 and AUX

About Equalization The S curve 215 gives you fine control over shaping a sound, using a process called equalization. But there are few areas of sound engineering more misunderstood than equalization, and, just as good EQ can really help a sound, bad EQ can really hurt it, so read on... Every naturally occurring sound consists of a broad range of pitches, or frequencies, combined togeth- er in a unique way. This blend is what gives every sound its distinctive tonal color. The range of fre- q

Grounding Techniques Hum and buzz are the biggest enemies you face when interconnecting a large number of different pieces of equipment to one another. This is because each piece of equipment may operate at a marginally different voltage (this difference is called potential) and, when two devices at slightly different potential are physically connected with audio cabling, the end result can be nasty, extraneous noise (mind you, connecting two devices at very dif- ferent potential can result in

Using the S curve 215 with an RTA An RTA (Real Time Analyzer) is a device which measures the relative levels of multiple frequency areas. This device, in conjunction with a pink noise generator, is the perfect companion for your S curve 215. Together with a high quality microphone, these tools allow you to fine tune the overall fre- quency response of your audio system in any given environment (this procedure is sometimes known as “tuning” a room). To use this kind of system, connect the S cu

Using the S curve 215 to Remove Feedback One of the most important applications for the S curve 215 is removing feedback from an onstage monitor system. This procedure is sometimes called “ringing out,” since feedback usually begins with a slight ringing sound at the resonant frequencies where the loop between microphone and speaker is loudest. The advanced Constant Q circuitry used by both models ensures that adjacent program frequencies which may not be causing any prob- lems are unaffected e
