DeepMind 12 User Manual
7.3.5
SYSTEM SETTINGS
In this menu are all the SYSTEM SETTINGS of the DeepMind 12. These include
VERSION NUMBERS of the hardware/firmware, settings for the fan speed, and
access to the CALIBRATION routines.
1.
To navigate the options in the SYSTEM SETTINGS menu, use the BANK/UP and
BANK/DOWN switches.
2.
In order to change any of the parameters make sure that the '<' symbol on
the respective line is highlighted.
3.
Selected parameters are adjusted using the -/NO or +/YES switches, the
rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which
allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the
full range.
HOST-VER
- This is the version number of the host firmware.
VOICE-VER
- This is the version number of the voice circuit board firmware.
DSP-VER
- This is the version of the DSP firmware.
BOOT-VER
- This is the version of the bootloader used to initialize the
synthesizer.
WIFI-VER
- This is the version of the WiFi.
FAN-SPEED
- This allows you to adjust the fan speed. The fan speed is
adjustable from 0 (off) to 255 (maximum). Adjust the fan speed to suit your
listening conditions and preference. If the local temperature is high, please
make sure that the fans are not turned off. The DeepMind 12 is equipped
with 2 fans, one internal and one at the rear. At an approximate setting of 40
the internal fan is running and the rear fan is off.
CALIBRATE (Calibration Menu)
This menu in the SYSTEM SETTINGS menu allows you to perform CALIBRATION of
the VOICES, MOD WHEEL, PITCH WHEEL, AFTERTOUCH and PEDAL INPUT.
1.
To navigate the options in the CALIBRATION menu, use the BANK/UP or
BANK/DOWN switches.
2.
Selected parameters are adjusted using the -/NO or +/YES switches, the
rotary knob or the DATA ENTRY fader. The rotary knob has a click which
allows very accurate control. The fader allows rapid adjustment across the
full range.
3.
In order to start a calibration routine, make sure that the '<' symbol on the
appropriate CALIBRATE line is highlighted, and then press the +/YES switch.
The DeepMind 12 has 12 voices. Each voice has its own LFO, OSC, VCF, ENV and
VCA stages.
The CALIBRATION routine is used for Voice checking, OSC wave shapes, VCF self-
oscillation, Pulse Width modulation and the VCA bias.
VCF
- Unlike many other synthesizers, the DeepMind 12 is capable of
accurate pitch tracking even when the filter resonance is pushed to (and
past) the point where the filter starts to self-oscillate. When using this self-
oscillating feature of the VCF as a sound source, the VCF calibration ensures
the correct response when playing the entire scale of the keyboard.
The DeepMind 12 VCFs are calibrated at the factory during production.
However, because its filters are voltage controlled and can be affected
by extremes of temperature, you may need to use the built-in calibration
function to fine tune them occasionally. Calibration may also be required
after a firmware upgrade or when requested to do so by an authorized
Behringer support technician.
OSC
- The DeepMind 12 OSCs are calibrated at the factory during production.
The oscillators are discrete analog circuits, but they are digitally controlled.
Compared to a Voltage Controlled oscillator (VCO), the OSC has far superior
stability, especially when they have very high frequency, low-jitter master
clock sources, as used in the DeepMind 12. This stage calibrates the slope of
the sawtooth waveform to ensure even volume and pulse-width across the
full range of the synthesizer.
This means that the OSCs should never need re-calibrating except after a
firmware upgrade, or when requested to do so by an authorized Behringer
support technician.
