CONNECTING TO ANOTHER SPEAKER
The Monitor Right Output allows you to add
a second active monitor while preserving the
stereo image. The Monitor unit will play the
Left Channel content and the extension monitor
will play the Right Channel. If stereo imaging
is not desired, simply engage the Mono button
on the A2’s top panel. Note that the Monitor
Right Output will not drive a passive speaker; it
is a Line-level output that can drive ampliers
or active monitor systems.
ABOUT EQ AND PHASE SETTINGS
High – used to add sibilance and crispness to your sound, with the knob at 12:00, there is no
boost or cut to the high frequency content.
Mid – Helps control the clarity of your overall mix and should be adjusted to suit lower or
higher volume performance levels. Boosting the mids helps speech clarity and intelligibility at
lower volumes while cutting the mids produces a more natural sound at higher volumes. The
Mid frequency selection knob allows for a range extending from high LF to low HF. When set
to 12:00 the Mid frequency peak is around 1.2k Hz, with +/- 12dB of boost or cut depending
on the setting of the Mid knob. Here again, with Mid set to 12:00 the mid control is effectively
out of the circuit.
Low – In general, lower volumes can benet from LF boost to help bring out the bass at
these lower settings, but it is usually left at or even slightly cut for high playback levels.
Notch – When it comes to the mechanics, Notch ltering is very much like the adjustable
mid frequency described above. However, the frequency range is much lower, and the lter
itself is much tighter, hence the term “notch.” When used in “cut” mode, this is very effective
in managing feedback, which is explained in some detail in our Feedback section. However,
the notch can be set to cut or boost to allow for the full range of possibilities. Many times
feedback is not an issue, and the artist can take advantage of a particular notch setting to
effectively tweak a nal mix to accommodate specic room or instrumentation considerations.
Phase – Use the phase setting that best supports your overall sound and system integration
considerations. For example, Phase can be set to facilitate the best bass response at low
volumes, and it can also be effective as a feedback deterrent, which will be reviewed in our
Feedback section.
