SHARK DSP110

1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you very much for expressing your confidence in BEHRINGER products by purchasing the SHARK DSP110.

+This manual first describes the terminology used, so that you can fully understand the DSP110 and its functions. Please read the manual carefully and keep it for future reference.

1.1 The concept

With the SHARK DSP110 you purchased a device that combines an automatic Feedback Destroyer using the ingenious search algorithms of our FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO DSP1124P, a variable Delay Line (adjustable in msec, feet and meter), a ULN (Ultra-Low Noise) microphone pre-amp with Phantom Power, an automatic Noise Gate, a variable Low Cut filter and a Compressor—all in one ultrarugged and compact case. Still, the SHARK can be operated intuitively and expanded to a multi-channel system using another four SHARKs and an optionally available 19" rack mount kit. The SHARK’s 24-bit A/D and D/A converters guarantee a precise reproduction of your program material.

High volume levels and the use of ever more sophisticated monitoring systems with a multitude of speaker cabinets have led to a greater potential risk of feedback loops in sound reinforcement systems. So far, audio engineers have been using conventional 1/3-octave equalizers to suppress unwanted feedback. However, the individual filters of such an EQ, with their relatively wide bandwidth, have quite an impact on the sound image. With the BEHRINGER SHARK (minimum bandwidth: 1/60 of an octave) you are now free to either choose the trial and error method to suppress feedback with graphic equalizers, or to assign this task to the DSP110, so that you can give your music your undivided attention. Using extremely narrow-bandwidth filters, the SHARK DSP110 eliminates only unwanted feedback, without affecting your music.

1.2 Before you begin

Your SHARK was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging is designed to protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the carton and its contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred during transit.

+If the unit is damaged, please do not return it to BEHRINGER, but notify your dealer and the shipping company immediately, otherwise claims for damage or replacement may not be granted. Shipping claims must be made by the consignee.

The optionally available rack mount kit allows you to mount your BEHRINGER SHARK in a standard 19" rack, together with another four SHARKs. The rack mount kit requires 2U of rack space.

SHARK DSP110

Be sure that there is enough air space around the unit for cooling and please do not place the SHARK on high-temperature devices such as power amps, etc. to avoid overheating.

Please use the enclosed power supply to connect the unit to the mains. The supply complies with all applicable safety standards.

+Please note that all units must be grounded properly. For your own safety, you should never remove any ground connectors from electrical devices or power cords or render them inoperative.

Further information can be found in chapter 3 “INSTALLATION”.

As a standard the audio inputs and outputs of the BEHRINGER SHARK DSP110 are fully balanced. If possible, connect the unit to other devices in a balanced configuration to allow for maximum interference immunity. The automatic servo function detects unbalanced connections and compensates the level difference automatically (6 dB correction).

1.3 Control elements

Fig. 1.2: Front panel control elements of the DSP110

1The CLIP LEVEL METER shows you whether or not the digital circuitry is

driven correctly. Any corrections can be made with the CLIP LEVEL control

. Be sure that the CLIP LED won’t light up.

2The CLIP LEVEL control lets you adapt the internal gain optimally to the digital circuitry. If gain is too high (CLIP LED lights up), raise the CLIP LEVEL value by turning the control to the right (and vice versa). Thus, you can shift the operating level upwards/downwards.

+The CLIP LEVEL control does not affect the input/output levels, but adapts the audio signal as optimally as possible to the threshold of the digital circuitry.

3These five LEDs symbolize the units of the parameters that can be adjusted on the display .

6	1. INTRODUCTION

SHARK DSP110

4The 4-digit DISPLAY reads the absolute values of the adjusted parameters.

5The FB-D FILTER STATUS LEDs display the status of each of the 12 individual filters. The SHARK uses four different filter modes:

sDisabled filters (which can be re-enabled with the ACTIVE button). When a filter is off, its LED is not lit.

sFree filters which automatically search for feedback frequencies and whose activity is shown by a flashing LED.

sSet filters which can be reconfigured as free (searching) filters, when all filters are currently in use.

sPermanently set filters which must be RESET to be reconfigured as free filters.

Once a filter has been set, its LED lights up.

6The DELAY button allows you to adjust the Delay Line time. Press the button several times to either choose msec, feet or meter. The last unit selected will be stored and recalled next time you use the DELAY function. The control LED lights up while you are making your entries. The setting range is from 0 to 2,500.0 msec, 0 to 2,818.2 feet, and 0 to 859.00 meters. When you are using high values, the 4-digit display reads the last figure only when you start editing with the UP/DOWN buttons. Example: for a value of 1,500.0 msec, the display reads “1500” when you press the DELAY button, and “500.0” when you start editing. In this way, you can use extremely small steps when editing parameters.

+To speed up the selection, briefly press the key located next to the UP or DOWN key. The selection speed will be increased with each additional key press. This function can be used for all parameter edits.

7The DOWN button lowers the parameter values shown in the display .

8The UP button raises these parameter values.

1. INTRODUCTION

SHARK DSP110

9The LOW CUT button lets you enter the high pass filter’s cut-off frequency (20 to 150 Hz). When set to OFF the filter is inoperative. The control and “Hz” LEDs light up while you are entering a value. Use the UP/DOWN buttons to edit. Pressing the LOW CUT button for a longer time (please wait, until all five parameter LEDs light up) enables the keypad lock feature which prevents inadvertent editing of parameters and settings. When the keypad lock is enabled, the LOW CUT key’s control LED starts flashing.

10Use the GATE button to adjust the threshold of the internal Noise Gate (-96 dB through -44 dB). When set to OFF, the Noise Gate is inoperative. The control LED of the GATE button lights up while you are entering a value. Pressing the GATE button for a longer time (please wait, until all five parameter LEDs light up) enables the GATE LEARN function, which automatically sets the Noise Gate threshold by analyzing the program material and adjusting the value accordingly (value detected plus 2 dB). In GATE LEARN mode, the GATE key’s control LED starts flashing. As long as the LED flashes, the detected value is read on the display, when the LED stops flashing, the value is raised by +2 dB.

11The COMPRESSOR button gives you access to two parameters that let you adapt the DSP110’s Compressor function to the program material. Press the button once to adjust the DENSITY parameter, which controls the compression density from 0 (no processing) to 100 (maximum compression). Press the COMPRESSOR button a second time to adjust the SPEED parameter which controls the Compressor’s attack and release times from 10 to 1000 msec. The “msec” LED lights up as soon as you select the SPEED parameter.

12The FILTER key allows you to set the feedback detection sensitivity within a range from 1 (no sensitivity) through 100 (full sensitivity). The default value is 50. The control LED lights up during data entry. Briefly press the FILTER key a second time to edit the maximum attenuation of the FB-D filter (from -3 dB through -48 dB in steps of 3). Pressing the FILTER key longer (please wait, until all five parameter LEDs light up) activates the FILTER LEARN function, which automatically searches for feedback frequencies and assigns free filters to the frequencies found. Now you can enter the number of filters (standard: 9) to be used for permanent feedback suppression. Although the remaining filters are also used to eliminate feedback frequencies, they are released once new feedback occurs. Pressing the FILTER key once again activates the FILTER LEARN function.

8	1. INTRODUCTION

SHARK DSP110

+When both FILTER LED and display stop flashing, the FILTER LEARN function has been completed. Press the FILTER key to cancel the function. After a short delay, the unit returns to the FILTER menu.

The FILTER LEARN function generates short feedback-causing signals that are sent back to the DSP110’s input, where feedbacks are detected and suppressed. The FILTER LEARN function is an useful tool for live concerts that prevents filters from being released prematurely. Fixed filters can only be reconfigured as free, searching filters by means of a RESET. In normal mode, which is activated after power-up, set filters are automatically released one after the other, when free filters are needed to search and destroy feedback frequencies.

+To ensure that the FILTER LEARN function works properly, the short feedback-causing signals are output with a level of -18 dB below digital maximum. However, the feedback caused during the FILTER LEARN procedure will be limited by the compressor to -30 dB below digital maximum. Please note that considerable volume levels can still occur, which is why you should use the FILTER LEARN function only before the concert/event begins.

13Enable the ACTIVE button to set inoperative filters to automatic search mode. When this button is up (control LED is off), those filters are inoperative which have not yet found a feedback frequency. Pressing the ACTIVE button for a longer time (please wait, until all five parameter LEDs light up) enables the RESET function. All filters will be reset, i.e. set to automatic search mode.

2.APPLICATIONS

2.1 Wiring the DSP110: general remarks

With its great versatility the SHARK can be used for a variety of applications. This chapter describes connection and configuration examples of the most common applications.

2.1.1 Connection between microphone and mixing console

In live applications it is often useful to protect specific single microphones against feedback. We therefore recommend that you connect the SHARK between your microphone and a microphone input on your mixing console (OUTPUT LEVEL switch set to MIC). If all mic inputs are in use, you can set the SHARK’s OUTPUT switch to +4 dBu (switch pressed) and adapt the output signal of your SHARK to a line input on your console using the MIC GAIN control. To prevent the occurrence of subsonics you can activate the SHARK’s Low Cut filter. Switch on Phantom Power when you are using condenser microphones.

2.1.3 Connection between mixing console and power amplifier

When you use the SHARK as a Delay Line unit for speaker systems placed at various positions (see chapter 2.3), you should connect the SHARK between the console’s output and the input of the power amp driving the “delayed” speakers.

2.1.4 The SHARK used in the monitor path

Inserting the DSP110 in the monitor path of your mixing console gives you utmost protection against unwanted feedback. Monitor paths are particularly susceptible to feedback, because on stage there are usually several microphones and speakers placed close to each other. Especially vocal microphones pose some problems, because their volume levels must be fairly high to be able to “compete” with other instruments, and often these microphones are hand-held and hence carried around on stage. It is therefore useful to protect the monitor path against feedback. In particular, when used in the monitor path, the SHARK produces a positive side effect in that it improves both sound and volume of the monitors. By filtering interference it makes the sound more transparent and by eliminating unwanted feedback it allows for raising the volume of the monitors, an effect that is usually welcomed by musicians on stage. Another advantage when using this configuration: one SHARK can control several microphones. As at least four monitor paths are used in a typical live application, all you need are four SHARKs to give you optimum feedback protection.

2.1.5 The SHARK used in single channels and subgroups

Whenever you want to make sure that wanted feedback such as the feedback sounds produced by a guitar won’t be removed, you should insert one or several DSP110 into “feedback-prone” single channels (e.g. vocals) or subgroups of your mixing console! Route all channels that are susceptible to feedback (e.g. all vocal mics) to one or several subgroups, in which you insert one or several SHARKs. In this way, all channels that are less liable to produce feedback (e.g. those carrying line-level signals, or instrumental microphones with lower volumes) can pass the console unaltered, while only critical microphone channels are controlled by the DSP110. Thus, you can protect your sound reinforcement system against feedback and still use wanted feedback sounds.

2. APPLICATIONS

SHARK DSP110

2.2 The Feedback Destroyer in the SHARK

The SHARK identifies feedback by splitting the entire frequency spectrum (20 Hz to 20 kHz) into sections of 1/60 of an octave and determining the level of each of these bands. The values calculated are then referenced to the level of the overall signal. The resulting level difference determines whether or not a filter is set. The SHARK allows you to adapt these decisive parameter to your needs: within a range from 1 through 100 you can edit the feedback detection sensitivity. The standard setting is 50, which ensures the best possible detection of feedback for the majority of applications. For speech-only applications you can raise the feedback detection threshold towards 100, which enables the algorithm to detect and remove feedback even more quickly. Vice versa, lower values provide for a more stable feedback suppression responding less to wanted feedback-like signal portions produced by guitars or keyboards.

In FILTER LEARN mode, feedback is generated and suppressed automatically. Whenever it detects feedback, the DSP110 selects the filter parameters automatically to efficiently remove the feedback. As the filter is set to the frequency detected, this mode is ideally suitable for suppressing constant feedback frequencies produced by “fixed” microphones, e.g. those used on drums. Once set, the filters automatically enters lock mode, i.e. the frequency remains fixed but width and depth of the filter are still being adapted to the signal. The filter width is enlarged whenever the feedback frequency shifts slightly. If feedback persists, gain is reduced even more and kept low to prevent feedback from recurring.

All microphones that are moved during a performance (e.g. hand-held vocal microphones) are usually susceptible to varying feedback frequencies, which should be suppressed in automatic search mode (entered when you power up the SHARK). Much like in FILTER LEARN mode, a filter automatically determines the ideal settings for all parameters, in order to suppress feedback. However, once all filters have been set, the filter first activated gets reset to automatic search mode. Thus, the SHARK makes sure that there is always one free filter to identify and remove new feedback frequencies. If your music contains wanted feedback elements (e.g. guitar feedback), the SHARK will suppress these too, because it is impossible from a physical point of view to distinguish wanted from unwanted feedback. Section 2.1.6 provides some information on how to get around this physical problem.

2. APPLICATIONS

SHARK DSP110

2.3 The integrated Delay

In addition to speakers on or near the stage, major-scale installations often have speaker groups positioned at a distance to the stage or flown above the audience, in order to provide listeners away from the stage with direct sound. However, since sound needs some time to travel around (343.6 m/sec at 20°C, accelerates by 0.6 m/ sec per °C), it reaches the audience not simultaneously but gets delayed by a certain amount. To make up for the different run times between stage and remote speakers, the latter must be provided with an electronically delayed signal, which is usually done by means of special-purpose Delay devices. You won’t need them, however, when you’ve got a SHARK, as the DSP110 integrates a Delay Line circuit giving you the same convenience of operation as dedicated devices. Simply measure the distance between the various speaker groups and enter this value (in meters or feet). Chapter 2.1.3 shows you how to wire the DSP110 in this type of application.

2.4 The Noise Gate function

The main task of a Noise Gate is to separate unwanted background noise from wanted signals and remove noise “inaudibly”. A so-called downward Expander automatically reduces the overall level of all signals below an adjustable threshold and thus expands the dynamic range of the program material.

In live or stage applications and multi-microphone systems, in particular, the SHARK has a variety of possible uses: as a moderately and accurately set Gate it efficiently suppresses background noise, compressor-induced noise build-up and crosstalk

18	2. APPLICATIONS

SHARK DSP110

between microphones, without producing any unpleasant side effects.

A typical Gate application is the processing of vocal tracks. Especially when using a Compressor, the distance between microphone and singer is critical: as the distance increases, more and more disturbing background noise is picked up. Use the Gate function to fade out unwanted interference “inaudibly” during music pauses. In live applications, e.g. crosstalk of drum and piano tracks can be suppressed or acoustically “contaminated” recordings can be cleaned.

When a singer sings into a stage microphone, the background noise is masked and hence not perceived. During music pauses, however, the microphone picks up the noise produced by the P.A. system and monitor speakers, which can lead to unpleasant feedback.

When you insert the SHARK in a vocal channel and adjust it so that it mutes the channel, as long as the microphone is not in use, susceptibility to feedback can be reduced enormously. Basically, all stage microphones should be treated in this way.

The GATE LEARN function helps you adjust the Gate threshold. Use this function before the concert and after the sound check. If the adjusted value yields unsatisfactory results, the UP/DOWN buttons can be used to fine-tune the Gate, until it closes only during signal pauses and suppresses interference efficiently.

2.5 The Low Cut filter in the SHARK

In miking it is quite common to fade out low-frequency signal portions such as stage rumble, pop sounds or other types of interference. Frequencies of that kind often have high amplitudes and not only affect the sound image but can also damage power amps and/or loudspeakers. The SHARK is equipped with a tunable high pass filter that features a very high slope. Press the LOW CUT button to tune the cutoff frequency from 20 Hz through 150 Hz with the UP/DOWN buttons, so that interference noise is faded out as perfectly as possible, while the wanted signals remains unaffected.

2.6 The Compressor function

In broadcast and recording applications, signal levels often exceed the headroom of signal-processing devices, which means that the dynamic range must be reduced to avoid distortion. This is usually accomplished by the use of Compressors or Limiters, which use an automatic gain control circuit to reduce the signal level during loud passages. In this way, it is possible to compress the dynamics of a microphone channel
