MODULIZER PRO DSP1224P
able owing to its outstanding specifications and excellent sonic characteristics. A 24-bit DSP is used as the
heart of the MODULIZERPRO. It performs the precise calculations needed for the processing of the complex
algorithms. Additionally, the MODULIZERPRO uses metal-film resistors and capacitors with very tight
tolerances, high-grade switches, low-noise operational amplifiers (type 4580) as well other selected
components.
The MODULIZERPRO DSP1224P uses SMD technology (Surface Mounted Device). These subminiature
components adapted from aerospace technology allow for an extreme packing density to further improve the
overall reliability. Additionally, the unit is manufactured in compliance with the ISO9000 certified management
system.
1.2 Before you begin
Your BEHRINGER MODULIZERPRO was carefully packed in the factory and the packaging was designed to
protect the unit from rough handling. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging
and its contents for any signs of physical damage, which may have occurred in transit.
+ If the unit is damaged, please do not return it to us, but notify your dealer and the shipping
company immediately, otherwise claims for damage or replacement may not be granted.
Shipping claims must be made by the consignee.
The BEHRINGER MODULIZERPRO fits into one standard 19" rack unit of space (1 3/4"). Please allow at least
an additional 4" depth for the connectors on the back panel.
Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling and please do not place the MODULIZERPRO
on high temperature devices such as power amplifiers etc. to avoid overheating.
+ Before you connect your MODULIZERPRO to the mains, please make sure that your local
voltage matches the voltage required by the unit!
The mains connection of the MODULIZERPRO is made by using a mains cable and a standard IEC
receptacle. It meets all of the international safety certification requirements. Please make sure that all units
have a proper ground connection.
+ Please ensure that only qualified persons install and operate the MODULIZERPRO. During
installation and operation the user must have sufficient electrical contact to earth. Electro-
static charges might affect the operation of the MODULIZERPRO!
See chapter 4 INSTALLATION for details.
As a standard the audio inputs and outputs on the BEHRINGER MODULIZERPRO are fully balanced. If
possible, connect the unit to other devices in a balanced configuration to allow for maximum interference
immunity. The automatic servo function detects unbalanced connections and compensates the level difference
automatically (6dB correction).
The MIDI links (IN/OUT/THRU) are made over standardized DIN patch cords. The data communication is
isolated from ground by opto couplers.
1.3 Control elements

The BEHRINGER MODULIZER PRO is equipped with ten parameter keys, one jog wheel (rotary control), and
an LED display. The two channels can be monitored with the 8-stage LED meters.
