The BEHRINGER DUALFEX PRO has two identical channels and provides two illuminated push-button switches
and four rotary controls.

1
The IN/OUT switch activates the corresponding channel into operation. With the switch in the OUT
position, the unit is bypassed.
2
The LOW MIX control of the low band determines the amount of signal used for sound enhancement
(from zero to six). The setting depends on the application you are addressing.
3
With the BASS MODE switch you can define the sound effect of the bass processor. If the switch is on
(Tight) the bass will sound dry and punchy, whereas the released switch mode (Soft) creates a
warm and full bass.
+ Please note that the bass processor should be set carefully to avoid possible speaker damage.
Most near-field monitors are not capable of handling the bass produced by the DUALFEX PRO.
4
The TUNE control sets the lower cutoff frequency of the high-pass filter. Using this control you can
select the frequencies that are routed to the Natural Sonic processor. The cut-off frequency can be
adjusted within a range of 1 to 8 kHz.
5
The PROCESS control determines the function of the device. When turning the control in clockwise
direction, the Exciter function is activated, which increases the signals transparency and sharpness.
Consequently, the DUALFEX PRO can be adapted to the program material to suit the application on
hand as well as any personal sound preferences.
+ Please note that with classical program material, acoustic instruments or with output signals
that already include sufficient treble frequencies, the Enhancer setting should be preferred.
However, when processing, for instance, a slapped bass guitar, it is the Exciter setting
which should dominate.
6
The HIGH MIX control of the high band determines the amount of signal used for sound enhancement
(from zero to six). It would depend on the application as to whether a high-quality system is to be given
the finishing touch with the DUALFEX PRO, or whether maximum intelligibility is to be achieved in a
relatively poor sound reinforcement system.
