Lip Sync Offset
Lip sync offset compensates for a lack of coordination between the audio and the
accompanying video signal. This frequently occurs if the video signal has undergone
complex manipulation that can delay it several milliseconds relative to the audio signal.
Since some sources may require more manipulation than others, the Lip Sync Offset
is set for each source individually to synchronize the audio for that source with the
corresponding video signal.
Enter the appropriate value for each input in the corresponding Lip Sync Offset box.
This delay is added to every available speaker to resynchronize the video and audio signals.
Test and Output Trim
Click the Test & Output Trim tab to access the various output controls (see figure39).
Figure 39. Test and Output Trim
Several factors can affect the sound level reaching the listener from different speakers.
These factors include the distance from the speaker to the listener, slight variations between
the output channels of a single amplifier, and variations between the individual speakers.
Use the output trim to set the output level of each individual channel to compensate for all
these variations and ensure that the sound level reaching the listener is the same from all
speakers.
This page also provides a test signal utility.
Test Signal Output
Test signals are used during setup to calibrate the level of each channel and to ensure
proper connection between the individual output channels of the SSP 200 and the line level
input channels of an audio signal processor, a receiver with a built in amplifier, or a stand
alone amplifier that powers the loudspeakers.
