Operation
DSP Output Mode
For precise signal adjustment, TX212S employs Digital Signal Processing (DSP). This feature
gives you a cleaner, more accurate sound. The DSP controls EQ, distortion detection/limiting,
crossover frequency and signal delay with virtual perfection—and without the production
variability inherent in analog filtering. Simply stated, DSP takes an analog signal, converts it to
digital and then performs all the desired modifications and adjustments in the digital realm,
where it's totally free from the inaccuracies and susceptibility to added noise that plague
analog signal processing. DSP is a major reason why Alto Professional subwoofers are so
clean, dynamic and versatile.
The DSP Output Mode switch on the rear panel of
TX212S toggles between six settings that adjust delay,
crossover frequency and the level of the XLR outputs. This
feature optimizes your speaker system performance while
also simplifying your full-range speaker + subwoofer
setup. If you have an Alto Professional TX2 loudspeaker,
using the correct setting will allow your loudspeaker and
TX212S to be time-aligned, crossed over at the ideal
frequency and level-matched.
Press the DSP Output Mode switch to select between the following settings:
•
TX208: Matches TX212S with the Alto Professional TX208 full-range speaker.
•
TX210: Matches TX212S with the Alto Professional TX210 full-range speaker.
•
TX212: Matches TX212S with the Alto Professional TX212 full-range speaker.
•
TX215: Matches TX212S with the Alto Professional TX215 full-range speaker.
•
High Pass: Employs a 100Hz crossover frequency with no delay or level adjustments. This
setting works quite well with a wide variety of non-Alto Professional speakers.
•
Bypass: Bypasses the DSP functions (there will be no crossover, delay or level
adjustments). This setting is ideal for daisy chaining subwoofers.
Once you have selected a setting, the corresponding LED will be lit.
Please Note:
•
For the TX208, TX210, TX212 and TX215 options, the system is level-matched when the
Volume control for your TX212S and TX2 full-range speaker are set to 0dB (12 o'clock).
This simplifies your setup and elevates the overall system performance.
•
If you do not have Alto Professional TX2 full-range speakers, you can still use the first four
DSP settings for your existing speakers. Cycle through the six options to find the best
sound and then make any level adjustments that are needed.
