Configuring the multimedia controller without a computer
32
The 562V Multimedia Controller allows you to program the level
of each analogue source independently, to suit your other
equipment, so that when you switch between sources the
volume stays the same.
You can increase the sensitivity of any source by up to four
steps. The loudest source, usually CD, should therefore be
chosen as the reference.
The following table shows the correspondence between the gain
and sensitivity on the audio inputs:
Gain 0dB 2dB 8dB 14dB
Sensitivity 2.5V 2.0V 1.0V 0.5V
To balance input levels
Switch off any power amplifiers that are connected to the
multimedia controller.
Turn off the multimedia controller, using the power switch on
the back panel.
Turn on the power again while holding down the Mute key on
the front panel.
Programming levels
The display will show:
Gain
Release the Mute key.
The multimedia controller will switch to standby.
Select the source that sounds loudest and make it your
reference.
Switch to another source in the usual way.
Use the A and V keys to change the sensitivity.
For example, the display will show:
0.5V
The front-panel indicator (above the Copy key) will flash if
clipping occurs, in which case reduce the sensitivity.
Switch between the source you are changing and the
reference source until they sound equally loud.
Repeat the procedure for your other sources.
When you have finished programming levels, switch the
power off and on again to restore normal operation.
