Controls (RNT)
The RNT floor box features a switch for the attenuation pads, a switch for the low-cut filters, and
a switch for the polar pattern selection.
Gain Switch
The Gain Switch is located in the center of the floor box's front panel. When
switched in, the incoming signal is either boosted (top position) or attenuated
(bottom position) by 12dB, using custom Rupert Neve Designs op-amps to
compensate for very loud or very quiet sound sources. Using the switch also
helps prevent overloading the input stage of recording interfaces, mixing desks
and microphone preamps.
HPF FREQ Switch
The HPF FREQ Switch is located on the left side of the floor box's front panel, and
inserts a low-cut filter at 80Hz (top position) or 40Hz (bottom position). The
switch's center position removes the filter for a flat frequency response. Wind
noise, plosives, footfall noise or rumble might affect the recorded signal, so
enabling the low-cut filters reduces such unwanted noise and prevents
distortion. Additionally, the low-cut filters also minimize the proximity effect
when recording sound sources at a very short distance.
Pattern Switch
The 9-position Pattern Switch is located on the right side of the floor box's
front panel, and allows the RNT's polar pattern to be changed from
omnidirectional to cardioid to figure-eight, with three additional steps
between each noted setting. This allows for great control over the balance
between direct and ambient sound.
