1. INTRODUCTION
In purchasing the new ULTRAFEX PRO Model EX3200, you have acquired an extremely efficient and universal
sound enhancement processor. The sound precision and flexibility of the functions are the main outstanding
features of this high-end unit.
The ULTRAFEX PRO is our state-of-the-art sound enhancement system offering a special combination of
sound improvement designs. The unit can be used wherever professional sound improvement is required.
The BEHRINGER ULTRAFEX PRO is the no-compromise answer when the situation demands a no-compro-
mise solution.
Advanced BEHRINGER Technology
Since its announcement of the first ULTRAFEX model in year 1990, it has caused a sensation. This high-end
sound enhancement processor is based on our many years of experience and discoveries in the field of
psycho-acoustics. The ULTRAFEX PRO finds widespread application throughout the world, in renowned
studios, sound reinforcement systems as well as in broadcast and TV studios.
The task to improve our famous ULTRAFEX PRO II was a big challenge. We are very proud that we succeeded.
Compared to its predecessors, the ULTRAFEX PRO offers several advanced features and we have succeeded
in dramatically refining the audio qualities. The unit features now a Mode function which enables you to
select either a soft and warm bass sound or a super-tight bass. Beside that a new VSP (Variable Sound
Processing) circuitry has been added to allow you to use simultaneous Exciter and Enhancer sound processing.
Since the introduction of the first psycho-acoustic processors, technology in this field has made tremendous
progress. Although the fundamental principles of enhancer and exciter technology have been well-known for
a long time, engineers have been able to refine and improve the essential components over and over again.
The BEHRINGER company has also contributed considerably to this development:
With the introduction of our Natural Sonic processor, we have set new standards. Previously encountered
problems of restricted leveling range, plus increased noise level and audible distortion during signal processing,
are typical shortcomings of conventional circuit designs. They were completely solved by the development of
new circuitry.
Sophisticated Manufacturing and Quality Assurance System
For the first time, the ULTRAFEX PRO EX3200 uses SMD technology (Surface Mounted Device). These sub-
miniature components known from aerospace technology allow for an extreme packing density, plus improve
the unit´s reliability.
The BEHRINGER Natural Sonic Processor: Sound Enhancement Of Classical And Pop Music
The BEHRINGER Natural Sonic principle is based on frequency-selective phase shifting in conjunction with
program-dependent equalization and pulse enlargement. An automatic and natural correction during signal
processing offers a quality of sound enhancement that has been almost inconceivable until now. Program-
dependent control permits the musical and unobtrusive transparency required for classical music material,
yet also provides the necessary brilliance for pop recordings. Owing to its dynamic control, and in contrast with
conventional units, the circuitry does NOT introduce any additional noise, non-related harmonics or distortion.
The VSP (Variable Sound Processing) Circuit
The new VSP (Variable Sound Processing) circuit used for the first time in the ULTRAFEX PRO, allows for
variably fading over from Enhancer to Exciter mode. Using the PROCESS control clockwise, the Exciter
circuit comes in additionally to provide a variable and carefully adjusted processing of high frequencies. The
result is an increased brilliance and transparency. Fading over from one effect to the other can thus adapt the
effects perfectly to the respective program material.
Built-in Noise Reduction System
Due to physical reasons, Exciters and Enhancers principally increase noise of the processed program mate-
rial. Therefore, we have incorporated a switchable noise reduction system which is capable of automatically
fading out any additional noise.
