− | :The Microphone Preset includes a sharp low-cut filter, keeping only that part of the audio spectrum where the microphone is useful. Using the microphone with this preset minimizes bass regeneration. The microphone preset was developed for close microphone use (“eat the mic”), which is the best way to optimize your vocal signal for tone and gain before feedback<ref>[[Presets 1.0|Original description of how the Microphone Presets work]]</ref>.
| |
− |
| |
− | :About the presets: No mic that I know of sounds good for close vocal, even for recording for that matter. All our presets compensate for this. A lot of these mics sound a lot more natural when you back off a foot or so from them. Of course, this is true in the studio too. No one does this for a live performance (backs very far off the mic) since you want to maximize gain before feedback by eating the mic. And so then you get funny sound and so then you need our presets to make it natural. <ref>[[Presets/Model_I_and_Classic#Cliff-at-Bose|Cliff Henricksen talks about Microphone Presets]]</ref>

− | == Noisy Volume Controls ==
| |
− | On {{S1 nl}} channels 1 and 2: When you rotate the volume controls back and forth within 10 seconds of turning on the unit, you may hear a scratchy sound.
| |
− |
| |
− | This is not a symptom of a hardware issue with the volume controls that warrants concern.
| |
− |
| |
− | The noise is related to a start-up process within the unit, not the volume controls. The noise you hear is not the result of a physical problem with the volume controls.
| |
− |
| |
− | When you turn on the unit and rapidly turn one of the volume controls back and forth you may hear a noise. This can happen on either channel, 1 or 2.
| |
− |
| |
− | After several seconds, the sound stops. At this point, the volume controls on both channels 1 and 2 should work as expected, quietly.
| |
− |
| |
− | If you cycle the power off and back on, you can get the same result on the other channel, 1 or 2.
| |
− |
| |
− | If you turn on the unit and let it sit for 20 seconds, the volume controls are quiet. That doesn't mean you have to wait for 20 seconds before you can use the unit. You just have to wait for 20 seconds if you don't want to hear the noise when you rotate the volume controls quickly.

| |
− | ; There have been some discussions in the Bose Portable PA Community about bass distortion with Bluetooth sources through Channel 3. Will Bose issue a firmware update to fix this?
| |
− | :If you hear bass distortion you're hitting the maximum volume (bass) the S1 Pro system can handle. We tested the S1 Pro system with a wide range of applications including live music, music playback with various styles of music, public speaking, and more. We tuned the bass response for the best overall performance for the widest number of people. We continue to listen to customer comments here and through all channels. We know that most of our customers are extremely happy with the sound of the S1 Pro system. <br>If you need more overall volume for music playback you need a bigger enclosure. The L1 Compact and the larger L1 systems may be a better choice.

| |
− |
| |
− | We have explored ways to change the response in the low frequencies. We found making the S1 Pro system more tolerant of heavy bass diminishes the overall performance in other ways. We don't have plans to change the sound profile of the S1 Pro system through a firmware update.
