Import any audio file into JRiver and click play. Ensure audio is working.
With audio playing, go to Player->DSP Studio->uBACCHaudio to open u-BACCH interface.
In the u-BACCH interface, select “Tuning” and click “L” or “R”. This will start playing pink noise on the left or right speaker respectively. [Note: audio must be playing to allow pink noise to start. The pink noise will override the audio playing from the selected track.]
...
Adjust the u-BACCH Angle, ensuring proper performance from both “L” and “R” sides. Choose the angle that fits your audio setup and then select “Done” to save the changes to your u-BACCH Angle. [Note: you do not have to use the pink noise when tuning, you may tune using any audio. However, the pink noise is the recommended standard to tune with.]
Tuning Recommendations: To tune u-BACCH simply change the angle until the noise sounds clearly and cleanly outside the speaker, off to your right or left side, and preferably up next to your ear, depending on your setup. If one side is more obvious to you, it is recommended to just tune on that side and go with that angle setting.

Compatibility: please note that the u-Bacch BACCH plug-in only works with JRiver version Media Center 30 and above. Previous versions of JRiver are not supported.
