Description

The UX3600 provides a complete suite of state-of-the-art digital signal
processing tools. Advanced capabilities and features set the UX3600 apart
from other processors in its class. This high end processor controls sound
systems with a variety of output channels and also delivers optimized
processing of specic EAW loudspeakers.

Built-in System functions include EQ lter, delay, gain, crossovers, and

polarity. However, these functions are implemented using custom-designed
algorithms to optimize their usefulness when applied to loudspeakers.
For example, unlike many bell lter designs, the UX3600’s produce a at
frequency response when reciprocal cut and boost lters are overlaid. Also,
to more accurately calculate signal delay distances, a temperature setting
permits compensation for sound speed dierences.

Loudspeaker preset processing is available for specic EAW loudspeakers

and loudspeaker arrays. The UX3600 implement EAW’s innovative Greybox™

settings, including EAW Focusing™, as part of the preset processing to correct
loudspeaker anomalies that cannot be corrected with conventional digital
processing. Advanced limiting maintains sound quality while achieving
maximum output levels based on amplier outputs. An ambient humidity
setting provides appropriate “air loss” equalization based on listening

distances. While the output settings in Greyboxes are locked to deliver

optimal loudspeaker performance, the user still retains control of input

gain, EQ, signal delay, and polarity for the entire loudspeaker. This mode’s

simplicity makes the UX3600 practical for entry level users and fast to operate
for experienced users, providing a high degree of system consistency while
retaining all necessary, user adjustable, alignment controls.

The UX3600 uses standard USB protocol and cabling for computer control
using the custom EAWPilot software. Up to 50 user-dened presets can be
save into device non-volatile memory. Two year warranty.
