User manual RANE DMS 22

[. . . ] Now whisper, yell or scream into your mic the loudest sound you expect to deliver during your session or performance. While doing this adjust the INPUT GAIN control so that the loudest whisper, yell or scream will just barely illuminate the OL LED. With that done you can adjust both OUTPUT LEVEL controls and the STEREO OUTPUT LEVEL until the desired input level is reached. Never connect anything except an approved Rane power supply ot the thing that looks like a red telephone jack on the rear of the DMS 22. [. . . ] ÿMIDRANGE EQ level control: As above, CW rotation increases gain, CCW rotation decreases gain. In center detent the control is grounded and effectively removed from the circuit. For the MID FREQUENCY EQ we have a bandpass type filter as opposed to a shelving type filter. ÿMIDRANGE OCTAVE bandwidth selector: allows the user to select 1/3, 1 or 2 octave coverage for the midrange filter. ÿMIDRANGE frequency control: determines the center frequency of the midrange filter with a range of 95 Hz to 4 kHz. ÿHIGH EQ level control: determines the amount of boost or cut applied to the patented Accelerated Slope (TM) high frequency shelving equalizer. In center detent the control is grounded and effectively removed from the circuit. CW rotation increases the gain of the mixer above the frequency set by the High Frequency Turnover Switch to a maximum of +12 dB in a shelving fashion; CCW from center decreases the gain to a minimum of -15 dB. ÿHIGH frequency turnover switch: selects the mid-band location of the High filter at either 7 kHz or 12 kHz. For full boost/cut amounts, this frequency is where the gain change equals approximately 6 dB. ÿEQ engage switch: In the IN position the EQ controls actually work. In the OUT position all EQ controls simply add to the stylish looks of the unit and do nothing. ÿPAN control: In the center position, this control sends an equal amount of signal to both the LEFT and RIGHT STEREO OUTS with the PAN pushbutton IN. As you rotate this control CW more of the signal is sent to the RIGHT STEREO OUT and less to the LEFT STEREO OUT. Conversely if you rotate this control CCW more of the signal is sent to the LEFT and less to the RIGHT. ÿPAN engage switch: In the IN position, the PAN control operates as described above. In the OUT position it is believed that all the Planets are held in their correct Solar orbit, the PAN control does not function, and that Channel does not send a signal to the STEREO OUTPUTS. ÿSTEREO OUTPUT LEVEL control: is an attenuation-type control which adds no gain to the Output signal but can reduce the amount of signal available at (only) the STEREO OUTPUTS. At full CW no attenuation will be applied, delivering full signal to the STEREO OUTPUTS. Note: this controls does nothing unless one or more of the PAN IN/OUT switches are in the IN position. Consequently the Planets of our Solar system may fall out of orbit. ÿPOWER Manual-2 REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION ÿXLR mic INPUT connector: is a fully balanced mic Input. Pin 2 is positive, pin 3 is negative and pin 1 is chassis ground. ÿLOW FREQUENCY cut off FILTER: allows you to roll off the low frequency end of the signal at three different preset locations. [. . . ] If your application requires an inversion of the signal polarity the DMS 22 accommodates that with a POLARITY INVERT switch. LOW FREQUENCY FILTERS (located on the rear) are also provided with three different settings to remove potential low frequency bumps and such. The high frequency and low frequency shelving controls feature Rane's patented Accelerated Slope (TM) circuitry. This helps eliminate the unwanted influence over out-of band signals so prevalent in standard shelving controls. [. . . ]
