Behringer EX1200 Ultrabass Pro

Manufacturer's Description for Behringer EX1200 Ultrabass Pro

Whether in your disco or club, your cinema, with your touring PA or your home stereo, you'll add an entirely new musical dimension to your sound. You can choose between "Full Range" for compact systems and "Split" for satellite systems with subwoofers. A wealth of additional useful features makes the Ultrabass Pro an unbeatable "power station."

The Behringer Ultrabass Pro generates additional sub-harmonics - musically important frequencies, which can be set to one or two octaves below the lowest frequencies present in the original signal. The generated tones are based on waveform analysis and harmonize perfectly with the original sound. The sub-harmonic synthesizer creates a new frequency spectrum, giving you a beefy low end that warms the heart of any bass freak.

Not only does the Pro EX1200 come with all this, its waveform processor musically restores low frequencies normally lost in the recording process. This processor releases untapped sonic resources and adds power to instruments, vocals, and mixed program material. Not only that, but a built-in limiter protects against low-frequency speaker over-excursion.

Now you can have even more control over your bass tones, with a dynamic punch control that adds breathtaking kick bass to your program material. At the same time you have a bass mode control that allows you to fade over from "ultra-low" to "punchy" bass sounds. You'll have precision control over your output level, while gain reduction LED displays provide clear visual indication of operation.

Caution is advisable when generating energetic sub-bass frequencies. Constant overloading can cause irreparable damage to your system. That's the last thing Behringer wants! So they've integrated a switchable frequency crossover, allowing you to separately process the low end and route the sub-bass frequencies to a separate subwoofer output.
