(2) VTC LED: When the BVT is off, this LED is not illuminated. (3) 0 dB jack: To connect an electric bass to the BVT, use this ¼" mono jack (unbalanced). Basses with active pickups create high-level signals. (4) PAD button (BVT4500H only): If the PEAK LED (9) constantly illuminates and the GAIN control (8) is set to 0 (zero), the input level of the audio signal is too high. In this case, press this button to activate the pad. The pad reduces the input sensitivity by 15 dB. (5) -15 dB jack (BVT5500H only): To connect an active bass to the BVT5500H, use this ¼" mono jack (unbalanced). (6) MUTE button (BVT5500H only): Use this button if you want to tune a bass without hearing the tone. (7) OVERDRIVE button (BVT5500H only): Use this button to add a distorted texture to the audio signal. This feature "overdrives" the BVT5500H preamp. (8) GAIN control: Use this control to boost or cut the level of the input signal. (9) PEAK LED: At various points in the signal path, the BVT monitors the level of the audio signal. When the level is too high, the PEAK LED warns that clipping can occur. (10) VOICING control (BVT5500H only): To select the tone you want, turn this knob to one of the following presets. The BVT5500H equalizes the audio signal for you. 1. Prominent bass and treble tones (scooped mids). 2. Smooth and warm treble tones (passive tone). 3. Flat, natural bass tones (no equalization). 4. Bright treble tones. 5. Flat, natural bass tones that are not muddy (bass rolloff). (11) - (13) BASS, MID, and TREBLE controls: For each tone (bass, mid-range, and treble) that you can emphasize or de-emphasize, the BVT includes a single TONE control. To emphasize a tone, you can turn the relevant tone control toward 10 (maximum boost). Alternatively, you might consider lowering adjacent bands. (14) EQ ON button: To turn graphic EQ and level features, push this button. (15) EQ faders: If you activated the frequency-band faders (14), you can use each one to emphasize and de-emphasize a specific frequency band. The center frequency of each frequency band is displayed directly above the relevant fader. (16) LEVEL fader (BVT5500H only): To compensate possible level changes of the equalized signal, slide this control between +12 and -12. (17) EFFECTS MIX control (BVT5500H only): If you created an effects loop, use this control to adjust the dry-wet mix. (18) MASTER control: To adjust the speaker volume and the level of the PREAMP OUTPUT, turn this control toward 0 (no volume/level) or, alternatively 10 (maximum volume/level). (19) LIMITER button: The limiter reduces only the signal peaks that can overdrive the POWER AMP and distort the audio signal. The limiter prevents the BVT4500H/5500H from clipping these signal peaks. (20) LIMIT LED: When the limiter is activated, this LED is illuminated. (21) Serial number. (22) Fuse compartment. (23) Power connector. (24) Fan: This fan prevents the BVT4500H/5500H from overheating. (25) Two ¼" TS (mono, unbalanced) jacks. (26) A single Neutrik Speakon compatible jack, for high-power loudspeakers. The pin designation of the speaker is pins 1+ and 1-. (27) POWER AMP INPUT: To connect an external preamplifier to the BVT, use this ¼" TS jack. (28) PREAMP OUTPUT: To connect an external power amplifier to the BVT, use this ¼" TS jack. (29) RETURN jack: To send an audio signal from an effects processor to the BVT, use this ¼" TS jack. (30) SEND jack: To send an audio signal from the BVT to an effects processor, use this ¼" TS jack. (31) LEVEL control: To adjust the level of any LINE OUTPUT, turn this knob toward min (no level) or, alternatively max. (32) GND LIFT button: To manage the ground connection between the BVT and a mixer/recording unit, use this button. (33) PRE/POST button: To select the type of signal you want to send to a mixer/recording unit, use this button. (34) BALANCED OUTPUT: To connect the BVT to the mic input on a mixer or, alternatively to a recording unit, use this XLR jack (balanced). (35) TUNER OUT jack: To connect the BVT4500H/5500H to an electronic tuner, use this ¼" TS jack. Check Out behringer.com for Full Manual
