D*AP4 VAP
Quick Start Guide [Firmware 1.0.x]
Before the D*AP4 VAP can be used, there are some basic configuration steps which must be followed in
the order set out below. This example assumes you will process one physical condenser microphone and
feed the signal to your digital mixing desk that runs at 96kHz sampling rate.
* Connect the mic to the XLR CHA input of Interface 2
* Connect the XLR AES/EBU OUT connector to your digital desk
* Connect the BNC SYNC IN to the Word Clock output of your desk
* Hook up the device to your PC network
Consult your IT administrator for assistance if you are not sure about this procedure
- Connect it to a switch or hub or directly to a PC / LapTop by an Ethernet cable
(some PCs need a cross over cable when connected 1:1)
- Find an unused IP address - ask your administrator!
- Assign it that IP address and set the network mask accordingly, a gateway is optional
(see next page for details)
* Open a browser (FireFox 20.x recommended) and connect with the device
- Type in the IP address as an URL
* Set the sync source
- SYSTEM > Setup > Sync Source Priority > Choice 1=Sync-In WCLK
leave all other Choices x=OFF (for the beginning)
- SYSTEM > Setup > System Clock > Sample Rate (kHz) = Follow Source
* Define the program configuration
- SYSTEM > Setup > Voice Channel Mode=2 x Mono
* Setup the microphone input
- INTERFACES > Analog Mic > M1 > Input=Mic, Enable Preamp Gain=On (check box),
Preamp Gain=40dB, Pad=OFF, Phantom Power=On (check box)
* Set the routing to the Audio Processor (DSP)
- ROUTING > MIC > MIC 1=DSP 1
* Set the routing from the Audio Processor (DSP)
- ROUTING > DSP > DSP 1=AES 1
Now you should have the mic signal on your desk and you may start experimenting with the various
parameters of the audio processing blocks.
A few more tips :
The browser based GUI employs latest web technology. We recommend using Mozilla FireFox 21.x in
order to get the best results. The minimal resolution of the PC screen should be 1280x800 pixel.
We highly recommend to consult the manual if you dig deeper into details. Especially when dealing with
the event manager. The D*AP4 VAP is an open audio processing platform compared to a closed up
device that is just dedicated to only one job with a few parameters to let you die or live …
It offers you a large amount of features which one may or may not use. To pull out all the stops it needs a
bit of playing around with … We whish you lots of fun!

Presets, Events, Triggers – Quick Start and FAQ
What is a PRESET?
As you navigate through the web interface of your Jünger processor, you will notice that many function
blocks are available twice. Those blocks are separated into an ON AIR and a PRESETS section of same
design and function. Changes within ON AIR lead to instantly audible reactions, just like turning a knob on
an analog unit. On the other hand, PRESETS is used to prepare the desired settings, to store and recall
them whenever you want.
There are two ways to create Presets. By
clicking <save> at the bottom of ON AIR a new
Preset can be generated or an existing one can
be updated with the current settings.
Alternatively, a new Preset can be created by
clicking on the Preset name at the top of
PRESETS and choosing 'Add Preset'.
Please note: Presets in the PRESETS section
are independent representations of all
parameters. There is no need to save changes
made to a Preset (in contrast to changes made
to the ON AIR section). Whenever a parameter
is altered within any of the Presets, they are
automatically stored without any further action
required.
You can store Presets within the unit or export
them into an XML-file. Those XML-Files contain
only one function block, but they may contain
more than one Preset.
Example: An audio engineer created different
leveler settings for three voice talents and
stored them into three Presets. Now those three
leveler Presets should move over to the live
studio. By clicking 'Export' and selecting all
three Presets, an XML-file is created, containing
all necessary Presets.
