You also get four different mono and stereo output operating modes, all with individual crossover filter types (Butterworth, Bessel and Linkwitz-Riley) with selectable dropout characteristics from 6 to 48 dB/octave. The time delays for all inputs and outputs are adjustable. This allows you to manually or automatically correct differences in ambient temperature, phase and arrival time. An additional sum signal is easily derived from the A/B/C inputs.
Now that remote control is a hot topic, you will be delighted that the future-proof ULTRADRIVE PRO software allows single or multiple remote control via PC via RS-232 and RS-485 interfaces.
