Tape Curve Adjustments
There are eight small blue pot adjustments for the NAB tape equalization adjustments - four per
channel. These pots are located beneath the top cover near the left front of the unit.

HSHF - 30ips high frequency eq adjustment
HSLF - 30ips low frequency eq adjustment
LSHF - 15ips high frequency eq adjustment
LSLF - 15ips low frequency eq adjustment
Mic / Tape Load Adjustment
The secondary of the mic input transformer in the DMT section may be resistively loaded by
adjusting the two blue pots located near or under the ribbon cables at the front left of the unit.
The head / mic load may be adjusted in order to achieve desired performance from tape heads
with respect to high frequency extension. And may also serve to load down microphones. Mic
loading is highly discouraged.
Digital Sample Rate Conversion
The Latte may optionally be configured to serve as a standalone digital sample rate converter.
This feature was added to make even greater use of the wonderful sample rate converter chip
used in the Latte. Four jumpers must be changed in order to enter this mode. Under these con-
ditions the Latte A/D will be disabled. AES compatible streams entering on AES 2 will be pre-
sented to the sample rate converter and will exit the unit at the new sample rate under the same
conditions that would apply for AES compatible outputs in A/D operation. Remember what-
