Turn the Master Volume/DSP knob to set the displayed function.
On this page, the Master Volume/DSP knob selects the Voicing. Most function pages allow you to push the Master Volume/DSP knob to return to the Home Page, as the bottom of this page indicates.
VOICINGS
Voicings tune your VARI for common uses. As you select a voicing on the Select Voicing page, the curve indicates how that voicing effects the VARI 4000 frequency response.

From the Select Voicing page, turning the Master Volume / DSP knob will select from the 10 voicing memories.

• Turning the Bass and Treble will show you their effect on the frequency response of the voicing.

• Turning the Master Volume / DSP knob will load a different voicing and reset Bass and Treble to 0.

• Pressing the Master Volume / DSP knob will exit this page and return to the Home Page.
  The first 5 voicings provided from the factory are as follows:

• Standard: The default tuning of your VARI, designed to provide a highly accurate full frequency response for general use, with no additional frequency contouring.

• Club: Increased low frequencies and reduced highs intended for high volume electronic dance music.

• Live Band: Reduced low frequencies and boosted highs intended for main speakers for a band performing to a large audience at high volume.

• Speech: Reduced low frequencies and emphasized frequencies in the vocal range, intended for maximum intelligibility of amplified speech with reduced tendency for feedback and rumble.

• AcoGtr&Vox: Reduced low frequencies and focused mid frequencies that can enhance acoustic guitars and vocals, and reduce potential for feedback and rumble, when amplifying acoustic guitar and vocals together at high volume.

• User 1–5: Each of these 5 memory locations initially provide the same unaltered settings as the Standard tuning, but you can overwrite them with your own customized tunings using the VARI Series App.

You can customize any voicing (including the 5 factory standard voicings) from the free, downloadable VARI Series App for iPhone and iPad ® ® , available from Apple’s iOS App Store.

• Using the app, you can adjust all the bands of EQ that define a voicing, and overwrite any voicings in the VARI’s memory with your personalized settings.
• You can then access any of those voicings directly from the VARI’s own display at any time.

LOCATION
From the Location page, choose the location that matches your physical placement of the VARI.

• Turning the Master Volume / DSP knob will select from the available locations.

• Pressing the Master Volume / DSP knob will exit this page and return to the Home Page.
  The locations tune the VARI for these common placements:

• Pole Mount: The default location of the VARI, leaving the sound unaltered

• Floor Monitor: Reduced low frequencies, to reduce feedback and rumble when the VARI is laid down on its side and used as a “wedge” floor monitor

•  Wall Mount: Like Floor Monitor, this location reduces low frequencies, to compensate for the bass enhancement that can occur when a speaker is suspended or pole mounted very close to a wall
  The curve on the VARI display will show reduced low frequencies when the location is either Floor or Wall.

SUB CUT
The Sub Cut filter blocks low frequencies, and is most often used when operating along with separate subwoofer speakers.
From the Location page, choose the setting of the Sub Cut filter.

• Turning the Master Volume / DSP knob will select from the available settings, showing a red line to indicate the current cutoff point for low frequencies.
• Pressing the Master Volume / DSP knob will exit this page and return to the Home Page.

These values are available:

• Off: The sub cut filter is not active, your VARI is providing full frequency range operation.
•  Numerical Settings: These settings block audio below the selected frequency, using a 4th order Butterworth low cut type filter.
  The curve on the VARI display will show cut off low frequencies when the Sub Cut is not off.

STEREO MASTER
From the Stereo Master page, choose whether this speaker will act as a left or right speaker if operating as Stereo Master.

• Turning the Master Volume / DSP knob will determine how audio will be routed for Smart Stereo operation.
• Pressing the Master Volume / DSP knob will exit this page and return to the Home Page.

This setting only applies when Stereo Master ROUTING LED is lit.

• Is Left: When this VARI’s physical switch is set to Stereo Master, it will amplify the left audio via its own power amp and speakers, and send right audio to the LINK OUT jack so a linked speaker will amplify right audio.
• Is Right: When this VARI’s physical switch is set to Stereo Master, it will amplify the right audio via its own power amp and speakers, and send left audio to the LINK OUT jack so a linked speaker will amplify left audio.

DI FOR STEREO MASTER
To run multiple pairs of VARI speakers as a unified Smart Stereo system, the DI for Stereo parameter must be set properly.

• Turning the Master Volume/DSP knob will select how the MIX OUT jack will operate.
• Pressing the Master Volume/DSP knob will exit this page and return to the Home Page.

This setting only applies when Stereo Master ROUTING LED is lit.

• Is Mono: This is the default setting, appropriate for normal use, including when using VARI speakers individually, or when using a single pair of VARI speakers in Smart Stereo. With this setting, the MIX OUT provides mono audio output, appropriate for feeding a separate monitoring system, or an independent subwoofer.
• Alt-Link: This setting allows you to operate multiple pairs of VARI speakers as a unified Smart Stereo system. With this setting, the MIX OUT provides the same audio that the Stereo Master speaker is amplifying. For example, if the Stereo Master speaker is set to “Is Left” and “Alt-Link”, it will amplify left audio itself, send left audio to the MIX OUT, and send right audio to the LINK OUT. If the Stereo Master speaker is set to “Is Right” and “Alt-Link”, it will amplify right audio itself, send right audio to the MIX OUT, and send left audio to the LINK OUT. See Smart Stereo with Multiple V4412/V4415 Pairs on page 8 for example use of this setting.

APP CONTROL ENABLE/DISABLE
From the Enable App Control page, you can enable VARI control for the VARI Series App.

HEARING DAMAGE AND PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO EXCESSIVE SPIs
Harbinger VARI Series powered loudspeakers are capable of producing extremely loud volume levels that can cause permanent hearing damage to performers, production crews or the oudience. Heoring protection is recommended during long-term exposure to high SPLs (sound pressure levels). Remember, if it hurts, it is definitely too loud! Long term exposure to high SPIs first couses temporary threshold shifts; limiting your ability to hear the actual loudness and exercise good judgment. Repeated long term exposure to high SPIs will cause permanent hearing loss. Please note the recommended exposure limits in the accompanying table. More information about these limits is available on the US government Occupational Safety and Heolth (OSHA) website at: www.osha.gov.
