most circumstances, a single calibration of the system for the room and
your preferred listening positions is all that is necessary. But the SC-1
provides storage of up to three complete and independent calibrations to
address various situations.
These three LEDs indicate which of the three setup memories is currently
active. They also serve to indicate that the unit is powered up and operat-
ing normally. (When the unit is in standby, only the amber standby LED on
the left side of the front panel is lit; the blue memory LEDs are off.)
The LEDs indicate which of the three setup memories is active:
•
LED 1 on = Setup memory #1 enabled
•
LED 2 on = Setup memory #2 enabled
•
LED 3 on = Setup memory #3 enabled
•
LED 1 blinking slowly = MultEQ

bypassed temporarily
The bypass mode is available so you can hear the difference room correc-
tion has made on your system. When the room correction subsystem is
bypassed, the active crossover and other system-specific circuitry is still
engaged. This allows you to easily hear only what the room correction
software is doing for your system.
You can cycle through the available memories and bypass mode by press-
ing the Setup Calibration Switch to the right of these indicators. (See 3,
below.)
In addition, there is one special case:
•
During room correction calibration (only), all three LEDs will
be on, and the LED for the setup memory you are working
on will blink for the duration of the calibration. The LEDs will
return to their normal operation as described above once the
results of the calibration are saved permanently to memory.

Setup Calibration Selector Switch
Pressing the right side of the center section of the SC-1 front panel will
activate a microswitch that cycles the unit through the available setup
memories.
If only one memory has been set up (which is fairly typical), pressing this
button will toggle MultEQ XT on and off. If multiple setups have been
stored, pressing this button will cycle through the available setups in order,
ending in the same bypass mode for the room correction prior to starting
the cycle over again:
•
Setup Memory 1
•
Setup Memory 2 (if available)
•
Setup Memory 3 (if available)
•
