Ashly SC-66A User Manual

The SC-Ó6A Parametric Equalizer offers com­píete equalization flexability. Compared to graphic type equalizers that preset center frequency and bandwidth, the SC-Ó6A pro vides four control sections per channel that can tune over a 5,6 octave range and boost or cut one note, forty notes, or any number in between. Some applications include: shaping the overall sound of a PA system to improve response, feedback control, instrument tone control, front system speaker or room reson ance problems, vocal and dialogue equaliza tion, broadcast onnouncer voice enhance ment, and record wearequalization correction and specie! effects, or any application where complete equalization control is desired.
FEATURES:
• Center frequency funable over a 5.6 octave range
• Adjustable bandwidth from 3 1/3 to 1/20 of an octave
• Rugged 16 gauge steel chassis
• Master and individual band in/out bypass switching
• Input and output can be used as balanced or unbalanced
• Peak overload light
• Full 20 dB of headroom
• Optionol 8 band mono operation
• True reciprocal curves
At the heart of the SC-66A is a unique bandpass filter circuit. Basically a "state-variable" type, this filter is trimmed and optimized to provide excellent trans ient response and a wide range bandwidth adjust ment. Each filter in the SC-66A can be tuned over a 50:1 frequency range (about 5 1/2 octaves) and a
70:1 bandwidth range with no more than a 2 dB amplitude error at center frequency. At its sharpest setting, the filter has a "Q" of about 35 and gener ates a response curve with 3 dB points only 1/20 octave apart, making feedback control possible
with no audible side-effects. The filters are manu factured as Individual, plug in units to make servic
ing easy. Each filter is placed in the feedback loop of a
summing amplifier to produce the desired frequency
response. Since a separate summing amplifier is
used for each band, no interaction between bands
occurs. A husky output stage is provided so that low
impedance loads and long cables may be driven
easily.
