■ 7 Headroom
Headroom is the amount of dynamic range remaining before clipping will occur. The
amount of headroom on the Emax II is adjustable from 0 dB to 15 dB in 1 dB increments
with the front panel volume control set to maximum. A headroom setting of 0 dB, for
example, will provide the hottest output level, (and the highest S/N ratio) but may cause
"clipping" if too many notes are played at once. The default headroom setting is 6 dB,
which is a good compromise between a good signal to noise ratio and having a bit of
remaining headroom. If you hear clipping from the Emax II, raise the amount of
headroom. The headroom setting is retained when power is switched off.
■ 8 Install Disk
The Install Disk utility allows you install new features (memory expansion, etc.) into the
Emax II as they become available. Detailed instructions concerning this function will be
supplied with the update kits.
