OWNERS MANUAL FOR WEISS MEDEA+ D/A CONVERTER

Absolute Phase control:
Pressing the mute switch for a few seconds toggles the operation mode to phase control. In that
mode the ^ key switches the phase to 0° and the v key switches to 180° (i.e. inverted phase).
Press the mute key for a few seconds again to get back to the volume control mode. The phase
set before is retained when switching back to volume control mode. When changing the phase
with the ^ and v keys you notice a short muting of the audio. This prevents from any clicks
caused by the phase switching and also is an indication that the switching has actually taken
place.
The volume setting is retained when switching the MEDEA+ off / on, while the phase is reset to
“not inverted” after a power cycle.
With the Remote Control unit the gain can be controlled between 0dB and –60dB:
From 0dB to –20dB in 0.5dB steps and from –20dB to –60dB in 1dB steps. In the 0dB gain
position the MEDEA+’s firewire interface is fully bit transparent, i.e. it does not change the data in
any way. In all other gain positions the output signal is properly dithered to a wordlength of 24
bits.
