Author Topic: Pink noise cards Jim Ziegler Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 753 From: West Hollywood, CA Registered: Jul 99 posted 09-21-1999 01:45 AM                     I am needing to set levels on UltraStereo processors, but I don't have a pink noise card. Can levels be set accuratly with Dolby 69P? If not, does anyone know how much those cards cost?  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 09-21-1999 01:59 AM                        From what I understand, the best way is to use the Ultra Stereo Pink Noise card. Be careful adjusting the surrounds... just barely touch the pot and the levels go waaaaay off! I don't have the manual with me, be I think you can use your own pink noise via the test points as well. I haven't played with the Ultra's too much.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-23-1999 11:42 AM                     You can inject pinknoise at 0 db at the mag/dig input I f my memory serves me correct it should be 700mv rms to set the 85dbc in the theatre  |  IP: Logged Stefan Scholz Expert Film Handler Posts: 223 From: Schoenberg, Germany Registered: Sep 1999 posted 09-24-1999 02:03 PM                        The Eq cards have feed in point. Use 0dB on theese points gives good results art 85 dBC. Use any pink noise source (R2 THX, Abacus) and you're in business.  |  IP: Logged Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-24-1999 09:12 PM                     Check the mother board some of the JS chassis mother board combos had the eq test point after the fader and that can upset the reference level  |  IP: Logged
