LUCIA application browser 14.1. Introduction The LUCIA Applciation Browser is a simple, intuitive software editor for configuring the signal matrixing and DSP features. Amplifier functions are quickly programmed offline and then downloaded to the individual LUCIA units via the USB port.

Configuration in application view Select the factory application or existing user application that is closest to the requirements of the new application. If necessary, add one or more additional devices to the application. Parameter presets for multiple units can be e column to add another device to the application.

Select the option appropriate for your application. 14.5.2.2. Matrix block The Matrix feature allows any of the inputs to be routed to any output. The level for each matrix route is adjustable from 0 to -30 dB using the fader to the right of the matrix. Manual routing – Click in the box to select the desired input-to-output routing.

ADLC (Automatic Dynamic Loudness Contouring) – ADLC is a sophisticated, DSP-controlled function that maintains optimum sound balance regardless of listening level. ADLC may be enabled or disabled using the radio buttons to the right of each speaker preset. Adjustable delay – It is possible to add a delay (0-120 ms) to the overall latency on each output.

15. Appendices A resistor ladder selector can be used to perform selection of up to 4 different alternatives. The total impedance should be between 1k and 100k ohm and one way to do it is as illustrated below (this is also how the Lab.gruppen accessory is made). Selection and voltages for each of the selected positions is fully configurable.

16. FAQ 16. FAQ Is the LUCIA power stage inherently bridged as on E Series, thereby allowing asymmetrical loading? to use power on one channel that is not being used on the other, as with Lab.gruppen’s E Series. However, the channels are automatically optimized when it comes to peak voltage, enabling one channel to deliver the full rated power into 2 ohms and the other channel into 8 ohms. This is the level at which the input signal will reach full level on the input to the DSP.
