From left to right, the controls on the front panel are:
1
INPUT LEVEL – two concentric rotary controls (inner control is left channel) to adjust the
level of the signal fed into the YDP2006.
2 Level meters – L and R – These meters come after the A-D convertors in the signal chain.
A "CLIP" indication therefore indicates digital distortion, and the input levels should be
adjusted so that the "CLIP" indicators never light.
3 Memory – this 2-digit LED indicator shows the current memory area.
4 Screen – this 56 x 128 pixel display gives a graphic representation of the current equal-
ization settings. It is also used to display other settings which you can edit using the
front panel controls.
Rotary encoders – the F , G and Q controls are used primarily for setting the Frequency,
5
Gain and Q of equalization bands. When editing utility settings, they may also be used
for editing data.
6
PEQ/NOTCH selectors and indicators – When the PEQ key
to select a band from PEQ 1–6 (or either MONO.L 1–6, or MONO.R 1-6 when in mono
mode).
When the NOTCH key
the HPF and LPF filters or, when in mono mode, MONO.L (1–4 and HPF and LPF) or
MONO.R (1-4).
The indicators show the status of the various bands/filters, and light when the corre-
sponding band/filter is on.
MEMORY keys – the [STORE] , [RECALL] , [^] and [%] keys are used to read and write settings
7
stored in the 40 memory areas.
8 PEQ key – pressing this key will show the parameters for the parametric equalizer (in
either graphic or numerical form), and enable the PEQ selectors. The indicators will
show the on/off status of the parametric bands.
9 NOTCH key – pressing this key will show the parameters for the notch filters (in either
graphic or numerical form), and enable the NOTCH selectors and indicators.
0
UTILITY key – pressing this key will cycle through a range of screens, allowing you to set
up various system parameters for the unit.
[L/<] and [R/>] keys – you can make equalization settings for the left and right channels
A
independently. These keys allow you to select which channel you are editing. By press-
ing one of these keys, holding it down, and then pressing the other, you can edit the
parameters of both channels simultaneously.
B
BYPASS key – when pressed, the signal fed into the unit will bypass the internal circuitry,
and will be re-output "as is".
