6 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 1. INTRODUCTION The BEHRINGER ULTRA-CURVE PRO is a fully digital sound processing device based on DSPs and 24-bit A/D and D/A converters. The high-speed DSPs are capable of performing any process in fractions of a second, the only element governing their performance being the software. The enormous flexibility available m[...]

7 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 The automatic servo function recognizes the presence of unbalanced connectors and adjusts the nominal level internally to avoid level differences between the input and output signals (6 dB correction). The optional digital input and output (AES/EBU interface) connections are balanced with a negative ground. High-quality c[...]

10 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 When the limiter threshold is exceeded, the indication LIM will appear in the level meter display to indicate that the limiter is attenuating the output. With softkey A you leave the level meter, and return to the main EQ window. With softkey B you erase the maximum levels from the memory. With softkey C / you switch the[...]

11 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 search means that the audio signal is continuously examined for signs of feedback. If feedback is detected, the ULTRA-CURVE PRO will assign an appropriate filter to the relevant frequency and apply narrow band attenuation, also known as a “ notch filter ” . The parameters which have been used will be continuously dis[...]

13 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 Channel switching In the EDIT menu, you can switch back and forth between the two channels, using softkey C. The pictogram for softkey C will show you which channel is active, and whether or not the channels are connected to each other via the stereolink function: left channel, stereolink on right channel, stereolink on [...]

White noise is composed of multitudes of sine waves packed close together, of equal amplitude, whose phases are random compared to each other (statistically different from each other). Their “ density ” or, spectral intensity is constant at any given fr[...]

If this is the case, you may assume that the loudspeaker system being used is not capable of reproducing this frequency (typically if it is a very low or high frequency). The ULTRA-CURVE PRO will therefore completely avoid the boosting of this frequency to any exte[...]

21 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 To obtain the best results the following points should be paid close attention to: Experience has shown that, before beginning to use the equalizer, it is sensible to listen to a variety of music and speech material with which you are thoroughly familiar, playing these references “ straight ” through the system witho[...]

22 UL TRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 Positions 1 and 2 are about three feet directly in front of the loudspeaker system, positioned halfway between the middle and high frequency components. These measurements can be used as a control of the basic system functions. Position 3 is about seven feet in front of the stage centre. Measurements taken here should sh[...]
