ULTRAGRAPH PRO FBQ6200/FBQ3102/FBQ1502 User Manual

Introduction

FBQ Feedback Detection System
The FBQ Feedback Detection System is one of the most outstanding characteristcs

of our graphic equalizers. This ingenious circuitry lets you immediately recognize

and eliminate feedback frequencies. The FBQ Feedback Detection System

uses the LEDs in the frequency band faders to indicate the critical frequencies.

This way, what once used to be a labor-intensive search for feedback frequencies

is now an activity that even a child could master.
In normal operation, the fader LEDs indicate frequency ranges with the highest

energy levels, therefore replacing a separate audio analyzer. If you keep an eye

on the LEDs while you play back your music (or during the sound check before

a show), you can easily identify those frequency ranges showing the highest

energy levels. Similarly, increased signal levels on individual frequency bands

indicate a higher likelihood that feedback may occur.
All three models feature a dedicated subwoofer output with adjustable cut-off

frequency. You can also adjust the fader range from ±6 to ±12 dB for each

channel independently.
The FBQ1502 requires just one rack space, yet it offers you tons of effective

methods for adjusting the sound characteristics, and is ultra-compact and

extremely simple to operate.
The FBQ3102 features 31 frequency bands per channel as well as adjustable

high-pass and low-pass filters. These filters further augment the adjustability

options available to you.
With its integrated limiters, noise generator and the adjustable subwoofer

output with signal level display and its 62 lighted 45 mm faders, the FBQ6200 is

our top model in this category.

Future-oriented BEHRINGER technology
To assure the highest possible degree of usability, all our equipment is

manufactured adhering to the highest quality standards in the audio

industry. Your equalizer has been manufactured under ISO9000 certified

management system.

Relay-controlled hard bypass
The so-called hard bypass relays were integrated into the development concept

of the FBQ6200 and the FBQ3102. These relays assure that your equalizer is

automatically switched into bypass mode in the event of loss of power or faulty

power delivery. These fail-safe relays also produce a slight delay during powering

up in order to avoid dangerous switch-on thumps.

Balanced inputs and outputs
The BEHRINGER ULTRAGRAPH PRO models feature electronic servo-balanced

inputs and outputs. The servo function performs automatically,

recognizing when unbalanced signals are connected and internally converts the

nominal signal level so that no signal level difference between input and output

signals occurs (6 dB correction).

The following user’s manual is intended to familiarize you with the

◊

unit’s control elements, so that you can master all the functions.
After having thoroughly read the user’s manual, store it at a safe place
for future reference.

Before you get started

1.1

Shipment

1.1.1
The ULTRAGRAPH PRO was carefully packed at the factory to assure secure

transport. Should the condition of the cardboard box suggest that damage may

have taken place, please inspect the unit immediately and look for physical

indications of damage.

Damaged units should NEVER be sent directly to us. Please inform the

◊

dealer from whom you acquired the unit immediately as well as the
transportation company from which you took delivery of the unit.
Otherwise, all claims for replacement/repair may be rendered invalid.

Initial operation

1.1.2
Please make sure the unit is provided with sufficient ventilation, and never place

the ULTRAGRAPH PRO on top of an amplifier or in the vicinity of a heater to avoid

the risk of overheating.

Before plugging the unit into a power socket, please make sure you

◊

have selected the correct voltage:

The fuse compartment near the power plug socket contains three triangular

markings. Two of these triangles are opposite one another. The voltage

indicated adjacent to these markings is the voltage to which your unit has

been set up, and can be altered by rotating the fuse compartment by 180°.

ATTENTION: This does not apply to export models that were for example

manufactured only for use with 120 V!

If you alter the unit’s voltage, you must change the fuse accordingly.

◊

The correct value of the fuse needed can be found in the
chapter “Specifications”.

Faulty fuses must be replaced with fuses of appropriate rating without

◊

exception! The correct value of the fuse needed can be found in the
chapter “Specifications”.

Power is delivered via the cable provided with the unit. All requiered safety

precautions have been adhered to.

Please make sure that the unit is grounded at all times. For your own

◊

protection, you should never tamper with the grounding of the cable or
the unit itself.

Warranty

1.1.3
Please take a few minutes and send us the completely filled out warranty

card within 14 days of the date of purchase. You may also register online at

behringer.com. The serial number needed for the registration is located on the

rear of the unit. Failure to register your product may void future warranty claims.

The user’s manual

1.2

The user’s manual is designed to give you both an overview of the control

elements, as well as detailed information on how to use them. In order to help

you understand the links between the controls, we have arranged them in groups

according to their function. Should you need detailed information about specific

topics not covered in this manual, please visit our website at behringer.com.

For example, additional information about power amps and effects processors is

found there.
