Hands-on or hands-off digital processors from Sabine. The Graphi-Q2 GRQ3122-S is a groundbreaking full-featured speaker management device, with GRQ2 remote software and a blank front panel for the ultimate in system security. Sabines multi-function processor once again sets the standard for all-inone speaker management solutions. The GRQ2 combines eight indispensable audio products into one all-digital package. With the touch of a fader you can shape your frequency response using the GRQ2s 31-band digital graphic EQ. Use the parametric EQ to control your filter width, depth and frequency. Time align your speakers with the digital delay. Manage your system gain with the GRQ2 digital compressor/limiter. Finally, add 3 to 9 dB extra gain and automatic feedback control with Sabines patented FBX technology. In addition, Sabines GRQ2 Remote Control Software gives you instant access to all front panel controls and an additional layer of functions. You can view and edit frequency response curves, view edits before executing them, and take advantage of unlimited GRQ2 file storage.

Architects and Engineers Specifications: The Sabine GRQ3122-S graphic EQ/parametric EQ/automatic feedback controller/compressor/limiter/delay/crossover shall be a dual channel digital signal processor, programmable only with provided Windows software, Graphi-Q2 Remote, including linkable functions, remote programming and autoFBX setup. The unit shall automatically sense feedback and determine its pitch, then assign a digital notch filter to the resonating frequency to automatically eliminate the feedback. It shall effectively distinguish between music and feedback and shall be operational during the program. The product shall use three types of user-selectable filters: parametric, fixed FBX or dynamic FBX. The user controls the parametric filters; the fixed FBX filters, controlled automatically, remain set on the initial feedback frequencies, and the dynamic FBX filters shall be automatically reassigned new frequencies as feedback occurs during the program. The GRQ3122-S shall also function as a 12-band parametric equalizer, 31band graphic equalizer, full-featured compressor/limiter, 1x2 crossover, and digital delay for speaker alignment. The unit shall include a blank front panel for system security. The unit shall also be provided with the following back panel controls: XLR-3 input/output connectors; 1/4 TRS connector, 8-pin Euroblock connector for switch remote control connection; an internal power supply and power cord; an RS232 remote control connector; an RS232 network connector; and a ground/lift button. The unit shall be the Sabine GRAPHI-Q2 GRQ3122-S Speaker Management System.
* Below approximately 200 Hz the feedback filters become slightly wider to increase the feedback and rumble capture speed at these low frequencies. ** Inputs may be balanced or unbalanced. For maximum output capabilities, outputs must be balanced (XLR or TRS). If either side of an output is grounded, the peak and output dynamic range will be reduced by 6 dB. *** Signal-to-noise ratio is the ratio of the maximum undistorted signal by specification (26 dBV RMS sinewave) to the noise floor. Available using GRQ Remote Software only. 2 Tests performed using an Audio Precision System One model 322 or equal.
