DESCRIPTION

Thank

you

for

purchasing

the

Peavey

Architectural

Acoustics

CEQ

™

28R.

If

you

are

not

yet

familiar

with

the

operation

of

the

Peavey

Architectural

Acoustics

CEQ

™

28,

we

recommend

that

you

take

a

few

minutes

to

read

the

CEQ

28

manual

and

familiarize

yourself

with

its

operation

before

proceeding

with

this

manual.

The

CEQ

28R

is

a

28

band,

1/3

octave

graphic

equalizer

that

is

a

companion

to

the

CEQ

28.

It

can

be

used

as

a

slave

equalizer

that

tracks

EQ

changes

made

on

the

CEQ

28

or

as

an

independent

equalizer

that

is

remotely

controlled

from

the

CEQ

28.

When

the

CEQ

28R

is

used

as

a

remote

expander,

the

CEQ

28

front

panel

controls

and

display

are

used

to

control

the

CEQ

28R

so

that

it

operates

just

like

the

CEQ

28.

By

adding

CEQ

28Rs,

up

to

16

channels

of

audio

can

be

individually

equalized

from

one

CEQ

28.

Once

curves

are

loaded

or

created

in

the

CEQ

28R,

the

CEQ

28

can

be

removed

so

that

the

EQ

curve

you

have

carefully

created

cannot

be

altered.

However,

any

of

the

128

stored

curves

can

be

recalled

via

MIDI

program

change

commands

(if

enabled),

or

the

CEQ

28R

can

be

set

to

a

mode

that

allows

one

of

2,4,

or

8

presets

to

be

recalled

from

the

front

panel.

CONTROL

OF

THE

CEQ

This

manual

assumes

that

you

are

familiar

with

the

operation

of

the

CEQ

28.

If

you

are

unfamiliar

with

the

CEQ

28,

take

a

few

minutes

to

go

through

the

CEQ

28

manual

with

MIDI

COMMUNICATION

When

the

CEQ

28

is

in

the

“Remote”

mode

to

control

an

CEQ

28R,

MIDI

system

exclusive

messages

are

used

which

must

be

on

the

receiving

units

channel.

The

communication

in

this

mode

is

two-way.

For

each

mes¬

sage

that

the

CEQ

28R

receives,

it

must

send

a

return

message

that

either

contains

the

requested

information

(like

current

EQ

curve

data,

label

for

a

preset,

etc.)

or

acknowledges

the

receipt

of

information.

2.

MIDI

CONNECTIONS

BETWEEN

THE

CEQ

28

AND

CEQ

28R

To

establish

the

required

two-way

communication,

the

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R(s)

are

wired

in

a

loop.

The

MIDI

output

of

the

CEQ

28

goes

to

the

MIDI

input

of

the

first

CEQ

28R,

The

CEQ

28R

is

MIDI

output

then

goes

to

the

MIDI

input

of

the

next

CEQ

28R,

until

the

output

of

the

final

CEQ

28R

is

connected

to

the

MIDI

input

of

the

CEQ

28.

3.

SETTING

THE

MIDI

CHANNEL

FOR

REMOTE

COMMUNICATION

The

CEQ

28

and

each

CEQ

28R

must

be

set

to

a

different

MIDI

channel.

If

an

CEQ28R

is

set

to

the

same

channel

as

another

CEQ

28R

or

the

master

CEQ

28,

proper

com¬

munication

will

not

take

place.

TECHNICAL

EXPLANATION

When

a

CEQ

28R

receives

a

system

exclusive

message

that

is

not

on

its

channel,

it

echoes

the

message

to

its

MIDI

output.

System

exclusive

messages

that

the

CEQ

28R

receives

on

its

listening

channel

are

not

echoed

to

its

output.

So,

if

more

than

one

CEQ

28R

were

on

the

same

channel,

messages

would

never

reach

the

second

CEQ

28R.

If

an

CEQ

28R

were

on

the

same

channel

as

the

CEQ

28

master,

that

CEQ

28R

would

intercept

messages

intended

for

the

master

and

an

error

message

would

appear

on

the

CEQ

28’s

display.

—

The

MIDI

output

of

the

CEQ

28

is

connected

to

the

MI

Dl

input

of

the

CEQ

28R.

—

The

MIDI

output

of

the

CEQ

28R

is

connected

to

the

MIDI

input

of

the

CEQ

28.

—

The

remote

channel

that

you

selected

in

the

CEQ

28

display

is

the

same

as

the

channel

that

the

CEQ

28R

is

set

to

(MIDI

channel

2).

—

The

CEQ

28

is

set

to

a

different

MIDI

channel

than

any

of

the

CEQ

28Rs.

—

The

CEQ

28

is

set

to

receive

MIDI

system

exclusive

messages.

This

message

will

appear

any

time

during

remote

operation

of

the

two-way

communication

between

the

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R

is

lost.

RTA

EQUALIZATION

USING

THE

CEQ

28

AND

CEQ

28R

The

RTA

built

into

the

CEQ

28

can

be

used

to

remotely

equalize

a

sound

system

with

the

CEQ

28R.

The

RTA

and

auto-equalization

functions

look

identical

to

those

for

the

CEQ

28

alone,

but

the

CEQ

28R

is

actually

adjusted

instead

of

the

CEQ

28.

First,

connect

the

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R

as

shown

below.

Then

connect

the

sample

microphone

to

the

RTA

mic

input

of

the

CEQ

28.

Be

sure

that

the

CEQ

28R

is

connected

to

the

sound

system

that

you

are

about

to

equalize

and

that

it

is

not

in

the

bypass

mode.

Connect

the

pink-noise

source

to

the

sound

system

that

you

are

about

to

equalize.

Select

the

CEQ

28R

you

wish

to

adjust

and

then

switch

to

remote

control

mode.

Press

the

RTA

button

on

the

CEQ

28

and

proceed

with

the

Auto-equalization

as

you

would

for

the

CEQ

28

and

as

described

in

the

CEQ

28

manual.

For

best

results,

we

recommend

thatyou

equalize

the

system

with

the

microphones

turned

on

but

below

feedback.

This

will

help

take

into

consideration

the

affect

of

acoustic

interaction

between

the

microphones

and

speakers

on

the

system’s

frequency

response.

After

completing

the

equalization

of

the

system

with

the

CEQ

28R,

press

the

EQ

button

to

examine

the

resulting

curve.

If

some

bands

are

set

to

large

amounts

of

boost,

you

may

wish

to

cut

them

manually

before

proceeding

to

store

the

curve.

You

should

pay

particular

attention

to

the

lowest

and

highest

frequency

bands.

If

all

looks

well,

then

store

the

curve

in

one

of

the

128

presets.

If

you

plan

on

using

the

front

panel

recall

feature

on

the

CEQ

28R,

be

sure

to

store

the

curve

in

one

of

the

locations

that

the

front

panel

can

access.

For

the

recall

of

two

preset

curves

mode,

it

must

be

stored

in

locations

1

or

2.

Forthe

recall

of

4

preset

curves

mode,

it

must

be

in

1,2,3,

or4.

For

recall

of

8,

it

must

be

stored

in

1

to

8.

THE

CEQ

28

TRACKS

THE

CEQ

28R

1.

DESCRIPTION

In

this

mode

of

operation,

the

CEQ

28R

will

always

have

the

same

EQ

curve

as

the

CEQ

28

it’s

connected

to.

As

the

EQ

curve

is

manually

adjusted,

the

same

changes

will

be

made

in

the

CEQ

28R.

This

mode

can

be

useful

for

stereo

operation

when

you

want

to

equalize

both

channels

the

same

to

maintain

proper

stereo

imaging.

2.

CONNECTIONS

AND

SETUP

Connect

the

MIDI

output

of

the

CEQ

28

to

the

MIDI

input

of

the

CEQ

28R.

Set

both

the

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R

to

the

same

MIDI

channel,

or

set

the

CEQ

28R

to

the

OMNI

receive

mode.

Set

the

CEQ

28

to

send

MIDI

program

change

and

controller

change

messages.

The

CEQ

28R

must

also

be

set

to

receive

these

messages.

Be

sure

that

both

the

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R

have

the

EQ

sliders

and

MIDI

switches

set

to

the

same

MIDI

controller

numbers.

NOTE:

The

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R

are

set

up,

ready

for

communication

from

the

factory.

Now,

as

you

manually

adjust

an

EQ

slider

on

the

CEQ

28,

the

same

change

is

being

made

on

the

CEQ

28R.

You

can

confirm

that

theCEQ

28R

isgetting

the

messages

if

the

CEQ

28R

display

changes

to

3

bars

when

an

EQ

change

is

made.

What

we

have

not

yet

considered

is

that

the

two

equalizers

may

contain

different

EQ

curves

when

we

start.

Each

time

an

EQ

band

is

adjusted

on

the

CEQ

28,

the

corresponding

band

on

the

CEQ

28R

will

be

set

the

same.

However,

if

you

don’t

adjust

all

bands

of

the

equalizer,

then

the

unadjusted

bands

may

be

set

differently.

It

is

best

to

either

set

both

equalizers

flat

or

recall

identical

curves

before

starting

manual

adjustment.

We

also

must

consider

what

happens

when

a

curve

is

recalled

on

the

CEQ

28.

Performing

a

recall

on

the

CEQ

28

causes

the

corresponding

preset

on

the

CEQ

28R

to

be

recalled.

But

if

the

CEQ

28

and

CEQ

28R

have

different

curves

stored

in

their

preset

memories,

the

two

EQ

curves

wi

11

be

d

ifferent.

The

best

way

to

solve

these

problems

is

to

dump

the

desired

preset

curves

(or

ALL

presets)

via

a

system

exclusive

dump

from

the

CEQ

28

to

the

CEQ

28R.

Then

recall

one

of

those

curves

to

assure

that

both

units

have

the

same

EQ

settings.

If

you

create

a

new

curve

and

store

it

in

the

CEQ

28,

be

sure

to

remember

to

also

dump

the

preset

containing

the

new

curve

to

the

CEQ

28R.

If

you

want

additional

CEQ

28Rs

to

track

the

master

CEQ

28,

connect

each

in

turn

to

the

MIDI

output

of

the

previous

CEQ

28R.

Taking

the

signal

from

the

CEQ

28R’s

MIDI

output

instead

of

its

thru

keeps

the

MIDI

signal

from

deteriorating

as

multiple

units

are

added.
