  The ProLinear DSP Front Panel 

 

The display shows different combinations of  text and 

numbers depending on the parameter being edited. The 

information displayed includes: 

 

•  the Program number and Bank (User or Preset) of  

the current EQ curve 

•  the boost/cut amount for the selected EQ band 

(Gain), and  

•  the Channel to which the ProLinear DSP is 

assigned.  

 

Accompanying each value will be its unit of  measurement, 

when applicable (Hz, kHz, or dB). 

 

When the LCD flashes…  

 

Occasionally the LCD backlight will flash. This happens to alert you 

to one of  two conditions: 

 

• 

 

W

hen two or more ProLinear DSP speakers are set to the 

same Channel, an edit performed on the first speaker will 

“propagate” to all the speakers that follow. When this 

happens, the backlights on the “slave” speaker LCDs will 

flash. 

• 

The signal is clipping. 

If  the Input Level control is set too 

high, the incoming signal can cause the speaker amplifier 

to clip. In this case, the LCD backlight will flash red. 

 

The buttons access and modify speaker parameters and functions. 

We will detail their operation within each Mode as it is discussed.
