3. MENU STRUCTURE AND EDITING

wheel pressed for about 1 s, all characters will be erased. The

PAGE key determines whether selected characters will be

overwritten (OVR) or new ones be inserted (INS). Confirm (OK)

or CANCEL with the A or B key respectively.

To recall an existing preset, just select it as usual with the

large data wheel, and confirm by pressing the wheel or the B

key (RECALL PRESET). You will then be prompted to confirm

the command, because this will erase the settings of the currently

selected presetas long as it has not been saved before

(RECALL ALL DATA?). Confirm (OK) or CANCEL with the A or B

key respectively. You can also continue the process by pressing

the large data wheel. Subsequently, the preset of your choice

will be loaded.

+ The MEMORY LED lights up as soon as the settings

of the preset selected in the MEMORY menu have

been edited and thus differ from the current

settings.

+ Presets set to stereo LINK mode are marked by a

stereo symbol ( ) in the preset chart.

Press the lower data wheel for a while to lock or unlock the

selected preset (PROTEC ON/OFF), which prevents accidental

overwriting. Locked presets are marked with a lock symbol.

Fig. 3.32: MEMORY menu (page 2)

To load individual modules from an existing preset, please

press the PAGE key to go to the second page of the MEMORY

menu. Similar to page 1, you can select a preset from which you

want to load a module. Turn the lower data wheel to select the

module of your choice (GEQ, PEQ, DEQ, WIDTH, DYN and I/O).

Then, press the large data wheel or the B key to load the module

(RECALL MODULE). Here, too, you will be prompted to confirm

your selection.

Additionally, STORE MODULE (A key) allows you to store

individual modules in an existing preset.

Exception:

DUAL MONO modules cannot be stored in a STEREO preset.

3.10 METER menu

The METER key below the two 7-digit LED displays selects

the METER menu comprising three pages and giving you an

overview of all input/output levels of the DEQ2496.

Fig. 3.33: METER menu (page 1)

Page 1 of the METER menu shows the levels of the left and

right stereo side. Use the A key (SOURCE) to determine whether

the input signal, the output signal or the signal applied to the

digital or AUX output shall be displayed. The two bars in the

middle of the display show the average level of the signals in the

form of a VU meter. This means that the displays respond with

some delay to changes in signal level. Thus, very short peaks

will not be displayed (RMS).

The outer two displays are peak meters indicating the signal

level including all peaks. As a consequence, the levels shown

here are always a bit higher than those displayed by the VU

meter. The signal peaks of all level meters (including peak hold)

are shown to the right of these displays (PEAK). Press the B key

(CLEAR PEAK) to reset the peak values and recalculate them.

+ If the input/output signal overloads, the

corresponding LEVEL meter will read CLIP

(PEAK). In this case, reduce the input/output level.

Fig. 3.34: METER menu (page 2)

The SPL meter (Sound Pressure Level) can be found on page

2 of this menu. In combination with a measuring microphone (e.g.

BEHRINGER ECM8000), this meter allows you to measure volume

levels. SPL also features a peak hold display, and with the B key

you can reset and recalculate the peak value (CLEAR PEAK).

+ The correct setting of the microphone sensitivity

must be ensured (see chapter 3.11). We

recommend our measurement microphone

BEHRINGER ECM8000, which features an input

sensitivity of -37 dBV/Pa.

The A key (WEIGHT) adjusts various dB weighting routines

for the calculation of the signal level (dB (A), dB (C) or OFF).

Fig. 3.35: METER menu (page 3)

Page 3 of the METER menu provides a virtual VU meter, as

known from analog processors or mixing consoles.

3.11 RTA/MIC input

Use this input to feed a microphone or line signal (separate

from the main input) into RTA or SPL meter. Information on how

this is done is found on page 1 of the UTILITY menu.

3.11.1 Connecting a measurement microphone

Select MIC LEVEL as input sensitivity on RTA/MIC. If you are

using a condenser mic, you need to activate phantom power

(MIC LEVEL +15 V). On RTA/MIC MIC LEVEL, adjust the sensitivity

of the mic you are connecting. If you are using the BEHRINGER

ECM8000, this value is -37 dBV/Pa.

3.11.2 Connecting a line signal

Select LINE LEVEL as input sensitivity on RTA/MIC INPUT. Adjust

the desired input sensitivity under RTA/MIC LINE LEVEL. The

preset value is 0 dBFS or 120 dB SPL.
