Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause a permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a sufficient time. The U.S. Government's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specified the following permissible noise level exposures:
Duration Per Day In Hours Sound Level dBA, Slow Response
| 8 | 90 | ||
| 6 | 92 | ||
| 4 | 95 | ||
| 3 | 97 | ||
| 2 | 100 | ||
| 1 1/2 | 102 | ||
| 1 | 105 | ||
| 1/2 | 110 | ||
| 1/4 or less | 115 |
According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of the above permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. Earplugs or protectors to the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating this amplification system in order to prevent a permanent hearing loss, if exposure is in excess of the limits as set forth above. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels such as this amplification system be protected by hearing protectors while this unit is in operation.

Rotate the data wheel to scroll across the screen and push the wheel to select and confirm.
A B C & D INPUTS:
Input sensitivity switches between -10 dBV or +4 dBV inputs. The +4 dB position should be considered the "normal" position and should be used with professional systems. The -10 dB position allows the unit to be driven with "hi-fi" level equipment or directly from a CD player. The input signal must be from a balanced source.
Mute toggle on/off.
Analog/digital operation is selectable on input A.
Level controls digital processing headroom and is adjustable from 0 dB through -100 dB. This adjustment is best left as high as possible but may be adjusted as necessary.
Trim is variable from -6 dB to +6 dB and is used to match analog input sensitivity as necessary.
Exit this screen by selecting "Done" and pressing the data wheel or pressing the "setup" button.
ST/M:
Toggles between Stereo and Mono. Selecting Stereo associates the A/B channel inputs. It does not affect the output channels. When engaged in "stereo" adjusting a parameter on channel A will make a corresponding adjustment on Ch B as well as C and D inputs (when they are in stereo). This may be most useful when adjusting PEQs, Delay or Dynamic settings. Preliminary adjustments can be made to both channels in this manner and then the switch can be toggled to mono allowing further independent adjustment of single inputs. The switch may be toggled again to link up the dynamic sections for stereo tracking of the comp/limiters.
MIC:
Allows engaging the +48 V phantom power as well as adjusting the Mic gain range from 23 dB to 67 dB of gain. Select "done" or press "setup" to escape to the main screen.

GEN:
This screen selects the parameters for the signal generator. Pink, White or Sine may be selected. When Sine is selected the frequency of the sine wave may be adjusted for 20 Hz to 20 kHz. The output level may be adjusted by highlighting the fader graphic and adjusting the Level control. An In/Out button is provided to turn on and off the generator. The screen may be exited by selecting "done" or pressing the "setup button. The Generator must be assigned to an output of your choice with the Matrix. A single Band pass filter can also be assigned to that output and the skirts may be adjusted to provide limited bandwidth noise for testing purposes. It is recommended that you reduce the level to -60 dB before engaging 54 gen functions.
MATRIX:
The matrix provides the method to assign inputs to outputs. In the default configuration NO SIGNAL IS PASSED through the unit until some selection in the matrix is made. This prevents potentially destructive signals from reaching the wrong outputs. The inputs are represented by the rows and the outputs by the columns. Most users will commonly assign crossovers in the setup screen so that only a single input assignment will be necessary. In addition to the line input this screen. To continue from the matrix you must exit from the upper left

Setup/Configuration Screen
SETUP:
Selecting this button takes you to the preset configuration page. The VSX™ is pre-programmed with fourteen configuration templates representing the most frequently used crossover possibilities. As you scroll through the configuration presets you will see and can adjust the basic filter types (only symmetrical choices may be made here). Center frequencies of those filters and a graphic representation of the filters will be displayed. You must enter "OK" to accept the selection. Selecting and pressing Exit or pressing the Setup button will return you to the main screen. Upon returning to the main screen you will see the graphic representation of your selection.
OUTPUT 1-8:
Output levels may be adjusted on this page. Press "done" or push the setup button to return to the main screen.
EQ Screen
Inputs or outputs should be selected on the top of the screen. While on the top of the screen push the data wheel and an arrow appears. Rotate the wheel to select which input or output you wish to adjust.
PARAMETRIC EQs on inputs:
Inputs A thru D display a graphical representation of the six parametric EQs that are available on each input.
BW: Bandwidth (in oct.)
F: Frequency being adjusted.
LVL: Level control. After selecting a frequency, rotating the data wheel allows boosting or cutting the amplitude of the selected frequency +/- 15 dB in .5 dB increments.
Tip: Pressing the EQ button is a short cut to return to the top of the screen.
EQ Screen
OUTPUT EQUALIZERS
Select 1-8 on the top of the EQ screen.
FILTER:
Select any of the five independent filters to use.
TYPE:
Choices are: Parametric, Notch, Allpass1, Allpass2, Horn EQ, LPF-6, LPF-12, HPF-6, HPF-12, Low Shelf, High Shelf and Bandpass. Depending on the filter selected various options for adjustment are presented in the window.
Parametric: Frequency, BW (in oct), Level
Notch: Frequency, BW (in oct). Notch has a fixed attenuation on minus infinity and the BW is defined 3 dB from unity.
All Pass1: Frequency
All Pass2: Frequency and Bandwidth
Horn EQ: Turnover Frequency and Level
LPF6 and HPF6: Frequency Low or High Pass Filter
LPF12 and HPF12: Frequency and Q
Low and High Shelf: Frequency and Level
Bandpass: Center Frequency and Bandwidth
Dynamics
DYNAMICS:
Inputs A B C & D or outputs 1-8 should be selected on the top of the screen. While on the top of the screen push the data wheel and an arrow appears. Rotate the wheel to select which input or output you wish to adjust and press the data wheel. Dynamics in the input channels may be linked in pairs for stereo tracking on the Input pages on the Setup/Configuration screen. Most users should use the dynamics on the outputs as Limiters to protect speakers and amplifiers and as compressors on the inputs should this type of tonal modification be necessary.
THRESHOLD:
The threshold is adjustable in .5 dB steps from -76 dBu to +24 dBu. This control determines the minimum level when the compressor begins to limit the dynamic range. The compressor has no effect on the signal as long as the signal strength is below the threshold point. Once it passes the threshold point, the compressor begins to limit the dynamic range of the output according to the value set by the Ratio control.
RATIO:
The ratio determines how strong the limiting becomes once the threshold is crossed. Values of 1:1 (no compression) to 20:1 are possible. Ratios of 10:1 and above should be selected for speaker protection.
ATTACK:
The attack function sets the amount of time for the compressor to respond once the threshold has been crossed. Specifying this value allows the user to determine whether the compressor responds as a peak or RMS unit as very short attack times consider only peaks while times above 50 ms average these peaks and result in RMS response. We recommend attack times of between 50 ms - 100 ms be used when setting the limiters to protect the speakers from being overdriven by the power amps. It is the average power long term that causes speaker burn out. The transient peaks usually cause little damage if kept inside the speaker's band limits.
Dynamics
RELEASE:
The Release value sets the amount of time for the compressor to recover from the compressed state once the level falls below the threshold level. We recommend release times of 5x to 10x the Attack time in normal use.
GAIN:
This adjustment serves to compensate for the loss in average signal strength due to compression. The range is -100 dB to +30 dB.
IN/OUT:
This button toggles to bypass the dynamics section.
XOver Screen
The output channel numbers appear across the top of the screen. Depending on the configuration template chosen they may appear together as blocks representing 2-way, 3-way or 4-way crossovers or singly as a Bandpass filter. After making a selection rotate the data wheel to adjust parameters.
Each bandpass filter associated with the crossover is represented graphically on the screen. The two slopes represent the lower and upper frequencies of the bandpass and the plateau represents the level of the bandpass. The intersection of slopes represents the electrical crossover point(s).
TYPE:
Available filters are: Flat, Butterworth 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, and 48 dB/oct.; Bessell 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42 and 48 dB/oct; Linkwitz-Riley 12, 24, 36 and 48 dB/oct. The user is free to mix and match filter types to create symmetrical or asymmetrical crossovers.
FREQUENCY:
The VSX ^™ is a very powerful tool and as such the frequency points are independent, allowing over-lapping or under-lapping as the system may require. The lowest and highest slopes in the chain are useful as high and low system cutoff filters to prevent low frequency rumble and speaker over excursion
as well as high frequency interference. The filter points are selectable in 1 Hz steps from 20 Hz to 20kHz. They may also be selected in the setup/configuration screen.
LEVEL:
The levels of the crossover sections are independently adjustable from -15 dB to +15 dB in .5 dB steps. Move the indicator to the plateau and the level parameter appears.
Delay Screen
Inputs A B C & D or outputs 1-8 should be selected on the top of the screen. While on the top of the screen push the data wheel and an arrow appears. Rotate the wheel to select which input or output you wish to adjust. Push the data wheel to accept. Normally the output delays are used to align the phase response of the drivers in a system while the input delays are useful for adding delay to the entire system(s).
IN/OUT:
Toggles to engage or bypass the delay
NORM/REVERSE:
Toggles to invert the polarity from the present state. It may become necessary to flip the polarity many times while adjusting the delay time or adjusting the cut-off rate of the filters. It is conveniently located on this page for that purpose.
DELAY:
Adds delay to the selected input or output. The delay is displayed in milliseconds, feet and meters and automatically calculates each as the data wheel is rotated. The range of each delay is 340 ms, 379.09 feet and 115.59 meters. The input delay amount will be added to the output delay amount for a possible 680 ms, 758.18 feet and 231.18 meters should a very long delay be necessary. One example would be for use with delay towers.
Tools
IMPORTANT - WHEN LOADING NEW PRESETS FROM MEMORY STICK BE SURE TO MUTE ALL OUTPUTS AND TURN YOUR POWER AMPLIFIERS DOWN OR OFF. CORRUPT DATA CAN CAUSE UNDESIRABLY RESULTS THAT COULD POTENTIALLY DAMAGE YOUR SPEAKERS.
SAVE PRESET
Allows saving the current configuration to one of 8 internal memory positions or to an external USB memory stick. If external USB is selected the VSX™ will automatically write a folder and file to the stick without disturbing other files/folders that may be present on the stick. It is not necessary to dedicate a memory stick to the exclusive service of the VSX. However, large memsticks with a lot of files may take a very long time to access. Files from the stick may be transferred to a PC or MAC computer.
Note: Configuration presets are stored in the folder: VSX48/presets on the memory stick.
NAME:
Selecting this function opens a alpha numeric keyboard. The VSX allows 8 characters to name the file. The {Right Arrow} button on the bottom right returns to the Save screen.
OK:
Must be selected and the data wheel pushed to actually save the preset. You will be asked to confirm this on the next screen.
LOAD PRESET:
Rotate the data wheel to select from the eight internal presets and from an external memory stick, if it is plugged in. Press OK and it will load the preset to the current preset. A confirmation screen will appear before overwriting the current preset.
INSTALLING SOFTWARE UPDATES:
Press and hold in the data wheel while powering up. Insert a memory stick. The VSX will search for files and will display a list. Select the desired version by highlighting it and press the Data Wheel. A confirmation screen will appear. Cursor over to "yes" and press the Data Wheel. The VSX will automatically perform the upgrade from here. When downloading the upgrade from the web place it in a folder: VSX48/firmware. The upgrade file will be a .bin file.
