BBE 882i Manuel D’Utilisation
FronT PaneL conTroLS
LED DISPLAY: The LED display is used to indicate the output signal level of the BBE 882i.
Each number on the front panel corresponds to the output signal level, measured in decibels.
Example: The “+10” indicates a 10dBu signal level, “0” refers to 0dBu, and so on. Once an
input signal level has been established, increasing the BBE PROCESS and LO CONTOUR will
increase the output signal and cause more LEDs to illuminate. The Clip LED monitors the input
signal level. The Clip LED will illuminate at +20dBu, giving a 3dBu warning of the impending
distortion at +23dBu, the actual clip point.

LO CONTOUR: Each channel is equipped with a LO CONTOUR CONTROL. This control
regulates the amount of phase corrected bass frequencies.

PROCESS: Each channel is equipped with a PROCESS CONTROL. This control regulates
the amount of phase corrected treble frequencies.

BBE FUNCTION: This push button switch allows for quick comparison of processed with
unprocessed sound. When the switch is pushed in, the process is on and the indicator LED is
green. When the switch is out, the process is off and the indicator LED is yellow.

CHANNEL B: These controls function the same as CHANNEL A.
POWER: This switch controls primary power to the BBE 882i.
ThingS To reMeMBer
The BBE 882i is designed to work with +4dBu signal levels. This is suitable for use with profes-
sional P.A. systems, recording studios or nightclub sound systems. The BBE 882i drives load
impedances down to 600 Ohms and supplies a maximum output level of +23dBu. Plugging a gui-
tar, microphone or other high impedance device directly into the BBE 882i will not work properly
as its input impedance is less than 14.7K Ohms.

The BBe Sonic Maximizer is a line level signal processor and is to be
connected prior to the power amp in any audio system. Significant
damage may be inflicted to the BBE Sonic Maximizer or any subse-
quent component in the system in the event the output of a power
amp is connected directly to the input of the BBe Sonic Maximizer.
