Preset
Presets provide the configuration flexibility needed to meet changing conference room requirements.
These changes include audio routing, gating, muting, levels, AEC referencing, and signal processing,
as well as room combining and room configuration. Presets allow you to make configuration changes
instantaneously—without interrupting or affecting any conferences in progress.
Processing Blocks
Processing blocks enable you to configure filters, delay, compression, and gain to create precise audio
configurations for any venue. A single input or group of inputs can be routed through a processing block
and then routed to an output or multiple outputs.
Project File
Project Files allow you to store configuration settings for one or more Converge Pro 2 devices, including
Inputs,Outputs, Fader channels, Processing channels, Matrix routing, and Presets, for a specific
application or venue. Projectfiles also provide Console with the necessary information to communicate with
project hardware using your PC.
Q (Quality Factor)
It is the ratio of the center frequency divided by the bandwidth. Q reflects an inverse relationship to the
bandwidth, and is adjustable from 0.02:1 to 40:1.
Ratio
The amount of compression applied to the output signal compared with the input signal as the signal
exceeds the threshold level. See also Compressor, Compression, and Threshold.
Release Time
Release is a parameter which determines how quickly compression is released after the input signal drops
below the specified threshold. See also Compressor, Compression, and Ratio.
Reverberation
A diffused acoustic energy field fed and maintained by sound reflections from the room surfaces.
Signal Generator
A device for generating a reference tone for sound system calibration purposes.
Threshold
The upper or lower level at which a signal processing begins or terminates.
White Noise
Acoustical noise with equal energy throughout a given frequency range.
