described in the manual. Incorrect adjustments outside safe para-
meters can lead to damage and unnecessary repair costs. Never use
the switches or level controls to effect excessive or extreme changes.
Repairs: Unplug the machine and immediately contact a qualified
technician when you think repairs are needed – or when moisture or
foreign objects may accidentally have gotten in to the housing, or in
cases when the machine may have fallen and shows any sign of having
been damaged. This also applies to any situation in which the machine
has not been subjected to any of these unusual circumstances but
still is not functioning normally or its performance is substantially
altered.
In cases of damage to the power cord or its plug, first consider turning
off the main circuit breaker before unplugging the power cord.
Replacement/Substitute Parts: Be sure that any service technician
uses original replacement parts or those with identical specifications
as the originals. Incorrectly substituted parts can lead to fire, electri-
cal shock, or other dangers, including further equipment damage.

Introduction
The Vox Ranger EQ Module is a graphic equalizer for the vocal range
with passive coil filters in eight bands. It employs bell filters, each with
individually optimized bandwidths, boost and cut values.
The concept of the Ranger EQs for the RackPack modular system is
characterized by two decisive features that separate them from tradi-
tional designs. First there is the basic idea of specialized modules for
typical instrument or vocal ranges. This follows a consistently musi-
cal approach, but also the design of each filter is based upon musical
demands alone—center frequency selection is not governed by techni-
cal ISO rules, but relies on our own experiences and the preferences of
well-known colleagues.
In contrast to statical graphic EQs with always the same center fre-
quencies in repeating octave distances, the Ranger EQ modules are
much better suited to work with specific instruments and their pecu-
liarities—and only different frequency ranges do allow to effectively
separate instruments in a mix.
The second characterizing feature follows the idea of a modular design
and affects both the filter technology and the user interface. Why did
we chose a graphic EQ design? For a fully parametric EQ with all neces-
sary controls there would be space for one band on the module front.
Our graphic EQ offers eight bands—a bandwidth control is less impor-
tant, and different EQ modules can be combined to configure a large
and, if needed, complex EQ system.
But a traditional graphic EQ with an active filter design did not seem to
match our idea of a holistically musical approach. We decided for a rare
technical solution: the combination of passive filters with a graphical
user interface. Based upon individually specified, custom-made coils,
these filter designs convince with outstanding musical qualities.
Finally, the general advantage of modular systems becomes clearly
obvious when planning individual systems: A vocal recording channel
with RackPack modules can be configured in very specific ways, while
a complex EQ system may have a completely different focus.

XLR Sockets, Transformers, Channel Split
The Vox Ranger is fitted with one XLR input and two XLR outputs for
balanced operation.
Pin-wiring of all XLR sockets:
Pin 1 = GND, Pin 2 = hot (+), Pin 3 = cold (-)
Discrete balancing stages for both in- and output provide high common
mode rejection and are capable of driving long cables (depending on
the capacity of the cables and the following input balancing stages).
The illustration shows the correct pin-wiring of the balanced XLR sock-
ets if an unbalanced wiring is required.
Lundahl I/O Transformers
The Input and Output 1 stages may be transformer-balanced if ordered
(please refer to page 20 for detailed information). Otherwise, all
inputs and outputs are balanced electronically. Output 2 cannot be fit-
ted with a transformer. It is actively decoupled and allows for the input
signal to be split into two output signals.

Channel Split
The channel split option through Output 2 always provides alterna-
tives in processing or routing of the input channel. While one output
may be used directly for mixing, the second output can be routed in
any other way—for example to further RackPack modules, to other
effect units etc.

Control Elements
ON, LED Display
ON
With the ON button you can turn the device on or off. The ON button is
illuminated when the device is active.
Relay hard bypass circuits ensure signals to be directly switched from
input to output in the case power failures – this “Power Fail Safety“
feature guarantees signal flow in any situation.
Signal LED
The SIG. LED indicates that an audio signal reaches the input with a
level above -20dB. This LED helps the operator especially in complex
setups to determine immediately whether the Vox Ranger actually
receives any signal.
Overload LED
The OVL LED indicates a potential internal overload. It begins indicat-
ing approximately 3dB ahead of any expected overload to leave head-
room for peak levels.
Overloads must be avoided to exclude audible distortions. The gaining
is still perfect in most cases when the OVL LED is illuminating shortly
since there’s still a headroom of 3dB for peak levels.
Permanent illumination of the OVL LED indicates overloads with pos-
sible audible distortions. Reduce the OUTPUT Gain control if the OVL
LED illuminates permanently until the OVL LED goes out or flashes
shortly.

Control Elements
OUTPUT, Fader
OUTPUT Stage
With the OUTPUT control you can readjust levels that were changed by
previous EQ settings.
For example, if you have by and large applied cut values to the signal,
the overall output level can be lifted again to meet the input level’s
value.
The same of course applies vice versa: simply lower the output to com-
pensate for boosts that may result from your processing.
If source and receiving units do not display levels, rely on setting the
output by ear. An A/B comparison can be made with the ON switch.
Please note that differences in sound, resulting from EQ processing,
should not influence your loudness judgement when setting the out-
put level by ear.
Fader
The Vox Ranger module offers nine fader controls. The upper eight fad-
ers control the eight frequency bands, the lowest fader controls the
output stage. All faders are manufactured by Bourns and show high-
grade quality specifications. Their handling is featuring a perfect bal-
ance between smoothness and resistance.
All center positions are detented and all faders are illuminated to
ensure safe operation also in dark environments.

Control Elements
The Eight EQ Bands
Each filter is designed as bell filter with individually optimized band-
widths and boost/cut values. Each filter is regulated by a fader con-
trol. The frequency range around the center frequency can be boosted
(fader to the right into direction “+”) or can be cut (fader to the left into
direction “-”) directly.
Here is a short list with examples for setting each band. This list is of
course not complete or demands general validity—we just want to give
some suggestions and orientation to start from.
Band 1: 4kHz Center Frequency
Boost: improves intelligibility for vocals (chant).
Cut: reduces risk of feedback (live).
Band 2: 2.8 Hz Center Frequency
Boost:
improved intelligibility for voices (speech).
Cut: masks wrong intonation, more air in backings.

Operation
EQ Principles
First cut, then boost: The hearing system is more used to energy
reductions in a frequency range, thus boosts attract more attention.
That is, a 6 dB boost is perceived to be similar in amount to a 9 dB
cut. Therefore when wishing to emphasize one frequency, it is typi-
cally better first to consider a reduction in others. The result will bring
more transparency and clarity as well as reduce possible unwanted
coloration of the signal.
Boost harmonics: Harmonic enhancement is one of the foremost tech-
niques for increasing the clarity and definition of an instrument. One
overtone area for vocals is around 5kHz and accentuates presence.
Note that each instrument will have at least two frequencies where EQ
can achieve a greater clarity or brilliance.
Cutting fundamental levels: Cutting fundamental frequencies pro-
vides for a perceived increase in harmonics and is therefore an effec-
tive alternative to boosting harmonic levels. This is a common practice
in Rock/Pop productions that can be effective in all musical recording
genre.
Boosting fundamental levels: Inexperienced audio engineers will
often first try to make corrections by boosting fundamentals, some-
thing which in fact should be the last thing one considers. Boosting
fundamentals typically lowers clarity and produces a muddy sound.
If two instruments are playing the same part and thereby produce the
same fundamental, raising these levels will lead to a decrease in the
sonic difference between them, (i.e., will make the two instruments
sound more alike and lower their intelligibility in the mix). This is also
true when two instruments play similar parts in the same key.
Exception: When an instrument sounds thin or small, boosting the
fundamental can help. Or perhaps a microphone was poorly placed
or the harmonics had been raised excessively through EQ. Finally,
increasing fundamental levels can also play a constructive role when
instruments play alone or as soloists with others in the background.

Technology
Bell Filters, Passive Filters, Advantages of Passive Filters
Bell Filters
A bell filter boosts or cuts a chosen frequency‘s energy with a maxi-
mum amplitude and a definable frequency range around this fre-
quency with a fall off of up to 3dB to both sides. The chosen frequency
with the maximum amplitude is called center frequency—it takes
place in the middle at the peak of the response curve. The response
curve forms a bell, but bell filters are also often referred to as peak
filters (also refer to page 13, “Diagram Of Filter Curves”).
Passive Filters
The filters in a passive network employ no intrinsic amplification ele-
ments and therefore need no external power, which means in effect
that they can really only cut the energy of a chosen frequency. In order
to expand this capability to include boosting the energy of a band-
width (that is, to be able to boost and cut frequencies), the overall fil-
ter input signal level is reduced. Based on this overall reduction and
relative to the original input signal, one can achieve a further cut or
boost in the form of a return to that original signal level. Thus a pas-
sive filter is always followed by an amplifier which is responsible to
regain the initial energy reduction.
Advantages of Passive Filters
• Typically coil inductance in virtually all active filters is achieved
through simulation. True passive coil filters, on the contrary, can
only deliver the genuine, characteristic sound associated with
inductive components.
• Inherent distortion elements of active filters are ruled out by pas-
sive filter design.
• For any number of reasons stemming from design and component
advantages over active filters, passive filters achieve a very natural
aural quality and through their harmonic treatment (THD, distor-
tion, phase response, etc.), offering at the very least, a clear sonic
alternative—in our ears often an extremely attractive one.
• All passive filter components (variable resistor, capacitor and coil)
work in concert to produce this beautiful sonic result. An important
part of this process is played by coil and condenser loading and
saturation characteristics. The resulting difference in latency from
characteristically extremely fast reaction of active filters provides
for more pleasant, musical sonic qualities. We tend to perceive
these attributes in terms of an increased suppleness and transpar-
ency, with perceptibly improved, silky highs and robust basses.

Option
Lundahl Transformers
As an option, the DynaMaxx RackPack module can be fitted with input
and output transformers from Lundahl. The transformer options can
only be ordered by purchase, a later upgrade is not possible.
Information On Lundahl I/O Transformers
Transformers have a pleasant sound characteristic, especially the low
end sounds rounder and more full-bodied. The top end benefits from a
softer and silky atmosphere without being emphasized.
Further advantages are aspects of improved operational safety: gal-
vanic insulation excludes the transmission of damaging currents.
Electromagnetic, high frequency or digital interferences have no influ-
