7 E 1. INTRODUCTION In purchasing the new ULTRAFEX PRO Model EX3200, you have acquired an extremely efficient and universal sound enhancement processor. The sound precision and flexibility of the functions are the main outstanding features of this high-end unit. The ULTRAFEX PRO is our state-of-the-art sound enhancement system offering a special co[...]

8 Bass Processor The ULTRAFEX PRO is equipped with a separate bass processor which allows for sound enhancement in the lower frequency band. A newly developed Dual Mode circuit allows you to vary between two different bass sounds from soft to tight. Processing the bass range means an optimum completion of high-frequency processing[...]

9 E 2. THE DESIGN CONCEPT 2. 1 High Quality Components And Design The philosophy behind BEHRINGER products guarantees a no-compromise circuit design and employs the best choice of components. The operational amplifiers NJM4580 which are used in the ULTRAFEX PRO, are exceptional. They boast extreme linearity and very low distortion characteristics. [...]

10 3. INSTALLATION Your BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging was designed to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging and ist contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred in transit. + If the unit is damaged, please do not [...]

13 E 7 The HIGH MIX control of the high band determines the amount of signal used for sound enhancement (from zero to six). It would depend on the application as to whether a high-quality system is to be given the finishing touch with the ULTRAFEX PRO, or whether maximum intelligibility is to be achieved in a relatively poor sound reinforceme[...]

14 13 The SURROUND control determines the effect of the surround processor. This function serves to im- prove the intensity of the stereo effect and to enlarge the stereo basis dependent on the program content. Therefore, this function can only be used in conjunction with stereo program material. 4.4 Rear Panel Control Elements Of The ULTRAFEX PRO [...]

15 E 5. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND 5.1 Design Concept Of The ULTRAFEX PRO The BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO... s increases presence and transparency. The program material will sound lively and natural again. s improves the intelligibility of speech: voices become clearly articulated, text easily intelligible, the transpar- ency of the vocal increases. s provide[...]

16 This phenomenon creates complex sounds and is underlined by the fact that a combination of harmonics can produce additional tones, known as interference or residual tones. All of these tiny sound portions contribute to the sound of certain instruments. The human ear, which is highly sensitive, can detect even minimum changes in the harmonic stru[...]

17 E The effect produced by so-called chorus units is based on the same principle of phase shift and signal delay. Here, several delayed signals are added to evenly intensify this effect. The BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO is equipped with a frequency-selective phase shift circuit that comprises several stages. Due to the program-dependent delayed si[...]

18 6. APPLICATIONS 6. 1 Basic Applications 6.1 .1 The ULTRAFEX PRO As In-Line Processor The BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO provides two methods of system configuration: Fig. 6.1 shows the use of the BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO in a series configuration. In most cases, the unit will be used as an in-line effects device, by connecting it in series wit[...]

19 E Fig. 6.2: Using the UL TRAFEX PRO as sidechain processor Within a sidechain scenario, the original signal must be muted by depressing the SOLO switch, so that phase cancellations (comb filter effects) and additional noise will be effectively avoided. Pre-monitoring of the solo signal will only allow for a rather restricted evaluati[...]

20 6. 3 Typical Applications In this section we will discuss a few typical applications of the BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO: 6.3 .1 Sound Enhancement During Replay For this application, the BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO follows the master or multi-track recorder, i.e., inserted between tape machine and mixer (or amplifier). Of course, a cassette recorder, or si[...]

21 E recommend attenuation of noisy high frequencies, either with an equalizer or - better still - with a single-ended noise reduction system. The BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO will process those frequencies with all their natu- ral clarity - but without the tape noise. We would like to point out in this section that the BEHRINGER company offers a s[...]
