A reliable and compact solution for domestic or small scale broadcast and audio needs

With the AIRLITE mixer you can now own a modern radio mixer for a very attractive price.   This new hand built piece of precision equipment is the result of more than 44 years of experience at D&R. It is an intelligent mixer with an internal USB control section that speeds up daily use and includes a built in Silence Detector. It is a reliable workhorse for the self-op production D.J. with built in Telephone VOIP functionality. 4 in/out channels of stereo USB and 3 very low noise Mic inputs.
The AIRLITE, ideal for ON-AIR, Production and perfect for streaming to the web. The AIRLITE accepts and instantly controls a maximum of 4 in/out stereo channels from your Play-out software. It is built into a metal, heavy duty RF shielded, powder coated chassis, designed with elegantly rounded corners.  Easily “drops” into your furniture to give that exciting and contemporary radio look.  A strong powder coated front panel with reliable controls gives you access to a flawless performance.

MIC, LINE, USB and INTERNAL VOIP

The AIRLITE mixer has 3 balanced, phantom powered mic inputs with inserts for voice processors. Eight stereo line inputs, 4x USB channels and 1x Telephone VOIP channel. Only one physical USB connection is the interface to transfer 4 stereo audio channels from and to your PC plus all control data from the control section and the software meter application.
The VOIP Channel 8 has its own USB connector to be able to have your calls coming from another PC. Connection to a second USB connector on your main PC is of course also possible. Dedicated Talk back to the VOIP channel makes conversation with callers very easy. The Cue bus is also a communication buss, so the announcer can easily have a discussion with the caller outside the broadcast. Just hit the two related CUE buttons and you’re talking. There is a very musical 3 band Equalizer on channel 1-3. The stereo Aux send can be selected pre or post fader  And all high quality low noise mic inputs have a high guality built in low cut filter.

STRAIGHT FORWARD MASTER SECTION DESIGNED WITH RADIO IN MIND.

The AIRLITE master section is designed for Radio. It houses all the master controls such as the stereo Aux send and return, Control Room Monitor (CRM), Announcer and a high level phones output. Auto Cue switches let both the Announcer and CRM output follow the Phones CUE selections. A CUE reset cancels all activated Cue selections.
Of course the Control Room Monitors are muted automatically to cut control room level when the D.J. Mic is active. A Studio output (announcer) that normally follows the main output can be routed by activating AutoCue in a way so any cue signal that is selected, can be heard when in this mode. Three Talk-back switches individually activate the built-in talkback microphone for communication to VOIP, Announcer and Aux outputs.

MIC LINE INPUT CHANNEL

The AIRLITE has an internal USB voice tracking bus that can be directly routed to a play-out system with Voice tracking capabilities, such as our AIRCAST software. The AIRLITE can also be used for production while ON-AIR when it is put into the NON-STOP mode. This NonStop switch routes the first USB channel directly to the main outputs.
The AIRLITE is designed to be the focal point for Internet radio production work in the studio or… at home. It’s uncluttered and clearly understandable features makes it the ideal companion for rapid on-the-spot radio programs. The AIRLITE is compact, reliable and ideal for production rooms. It can also double as an On-Air mixer or implementedas your own Internet Radio station. If your budget is tight this is the solution. And… it never becomes obsolete as it can be used as preproduction mixer, if, at a later date, you fit in a larger On-Air mixer. Every system unit has its own very efficient, switched mode external power supply.

AIRLITE USB CHANNEL

Every AIRLITE USB Channel accepts a stereo source from a play-out system such as our AIRCAST. Levels can be set by the gain control. Pre listening can be done by the CUE switch and the ON switch can activate tracks of the Play-out system. This can also be done by “faderstart”. The fader is controlling a high quality VCA so noise or scratching or any other noise caused is a thing of the past. In case you run a classic station with CD players, the USB input can be switched to stereo line. The CUE is also a communication us that allows callers on the VoIP channel to listen to the music nd DJ without being on-air.

USB ROUTING

There are four USB stereo in- and outputs available on the Airlite. The inputs are internally routed to channel 4 to 7 where the USB input of channel four is also routed to the Non-Stop switch. The USB outputs, seen as inputs on your PC, are connected to the Program output, Aux send, Voice track and Air-in. The Air In input can be connected to your external processing unit and in this way you can stream your processed signal direct to the Internet without the use of an extra soundcard.

VOIP CHANNEL

Channel 8 of the AIRLITE mixer is a dedicated Voice Over Internet Protocol channel. (VoIP). Simply plug the dedicated Voip USB cable from the mixer to your PC and set up a connection with the software that is part of our package. You need to have a service provider that allows you to use VoIP for your telephone connections. A separate Gain control and VoIP send control let’s you tailor the levels. An incoming line can be pick up by the Conn button, prelistened to by the CUE switch and brought into your radioshow by the ON switch and Fader. If you still want to use an analog Hybrid, use the stereo Aux send as cleanfeed and return the signal in the VOIP channel with the input selector selected to Line. The internal built in Electret Talkback microphone can be routed to the caller outside the broadcast by activating the TB to VoIP switch.

USB CONTROL SECTION

On the right side of the AIRLITE mixer you see 16 illuminated (green/red) switches. These switches can be used to control functions in your Radio Automation such as starting jingle machines. Recording a voice track while ON-AIR is one of the possibilities. The USB control software, that is part of the package, can be easily programmed by yourself, to make radio even more exciting. Any switch can perform a function of your play-out software that you decide would be handy to control. Master controls can be found in the master section f or A nnouncer, Phones and CRM. When activating the Auto Cue for CRM and the Announcer, any selected CUE can be heard. As soon as the DJ mic opens the CRM  mutes of course to avoid feedback TALKBACK to all important outputs is directly accessable on the right hand side. The NON STOP switch instantly routes the first USB stereo signal (channel 4) to the main outputs which makes the mixer available for production again.

POWER SUPPLY AND MORE

The AIRLITE is powered by an external heavy duty switched mode power supply. The control surface can be easily mounted inside furniture as a drop through unit with rounded off corners to make a nice fit. The front panel thickness is 2mm with a corner radius of 20mm. All in and output connections are on standard Jack / Cinch and XLR connectors. Power supply input is by way of a rock solid powercon connector.

SOFTWARE

The AIRLITE sends out control signals over USB, based on the HID protocol. T his a lso m eans t hat t he m ain o utput signals can be displayed on a TFT screen in a beautiful meter application. Program and CRM stereo signals are shown on a high resolution PPM. On the right side you se the status of various modes the console can be set. Modes such as ON-AIR 1 or 2, Non Stop mode, there is even a Silence detector built inside the consoles, that instantly activates the NON-STOP mode. Mic-On and CRM mute are also displayed. Channel input selection is displayed at the bottom of the TFT screen. At the same time this software application shows you a professional looking Radio
clock that is synchronized with your local PC.

D&R Airmate-USB Extremely popular low budget Radio-On Air console. Thousands of happy users.
  • 8 Triple inputs with 6 balanced mic inputs with 3-band EQ
  • 48V Phantom power
  • 12 Stereo line inputs
  • 2x USB and 2x telephone hybrid (RJ45)
  • Fader start
  • Aux pre or post
  • Design: 19“, 8U
  • Weight: 11 kg
Faderstarts and Cleanfeeds are standard We designed the Airmate-USB to fulfill the requirements for a high grade low cost radio production mixer. Built around well proven low noise circuitry, this console is the reliable workhorse for the self-op production D.J. that needs an internal Telephone Hybrid (2x) and USB connection to the PC (e.q. for streaming to the web). A heavy duty 19" rack mounted RF shielded chassis houses 8 vertical triple input modules giving flexibility rarely found in a mixer of this type. Six input channels with high quality balanced microphone inputs on XLR and two stereo line level inputs on Cinch (RCA) connectors. Every Mic input has an insert for signal processors. And… every line level line B input can be converted into a phono (record player) channel by simply fitting an optional stereo R.I.A.A. equalized phono pre-amp. Built in Telephone Hybrids This new Airmate-USB model has 6 balanced mic inputs (+48 phantom is standard) with insert, 12 stereo line inputs, 2x USB and 2x Telephone Hybrids. Channel 5 and 6 have Mic/Line and USB interface to transfer audio from and to your PC. Channel 7 and 8 have, apart from the stereo line input, also RJ-11 connectors to interface with a POT (Plain Old Telephone) line and a Telephone appliance to dial the number you want to reach. High quality built in Hybrids with R (trimmer on the surface) and C balance (switch on the surface) and direct Connection and Talkback buttons in the Hybrid channels makes a conversation with listeners very easy. With the Telco Send (level to the caller) and Telco Gain (level coming from the caller) all levels can be easy adjusted. But be always aware of the fact that the RC balance has to be adjusted once to create a clean telephone signal send and receive. The manual will give info about this pretty simple procedure. The front panel ON switch is wired in series with the built in mechanical fader start enabling selection of start either by fader or hard start via the ON switch. Fader start generates in the Mic mode a Mic-on signaling to switch on ON-Air lights. There is a 3 band Equalizer on channel 1-6. The stereo Aux send can be set pre or post fader. All mic inputs have low cut jumpers. A clean feed send is available for external analog and digital Hybrids. Built in VoIP or Telco channels We now have dedicated VoIP channels available for the AIRMATE-USB, or a combination of one TELCO module and one VoIP module. If you still want to use a classic analogue or digital Hybrid we have designed a cleanfeed output on pin 1-4 of the RJ11 connector. You can return the Hybrid signal on the line input of the VoIp module. Please tell your dealer the combination you want. VoIP | ISDN | GSM If you would like to call with VOIP we can supply a pcb with all the VoIp options on it that replaces the existing Telco module(s) for landlines. You can do that for one or both Telco modules, whatever your choice is. If you do not want a permanent VoIP solution you can use the CISCO SPA112 as an interface between our 2 Telephone modules and the Internet. And in case you have an ISDN connection in your situation, we advice to use the Fritz Box type 7390 to convert the ISDN into an analog line that can be connected directly to the Telco modules of the Airmate-usb  mixer. If you want to connect the Airmate-USB to the GSM network just buy from a third party this Musitel unit connect it to the Phone RJ11 socket and you\'re set. Now is the time to install your own production room The Airmate-USB has the usual master controls such as stereo master faders, stereo Aux send and return, monitor master with "follow phones" and a phones output with a split control function. There is a balance control to continuously adjust the volume between main output and stereo Cue signal. In addition, there is a special Radio On-air/production section featuring; Self­op switching to automatically cut control room level when the D.J. mic is active; a Clean feed output to also drive an external Telephone Hybrid for talk shows and interviews, if you need more Hybrid channels than the 2 built in ones; a special announcer output that normally follows main output but can be switched so that the main output, or any cue signal that is selected, can be heard when in the "follow phones" mode. A large Talkback switch activates the built-in electret talkback microphone for easy communication with the Clean-feed output, Aux output and/or Announcer output. The focal point in a production studio The Airmate-USB is designed to be the focal point for local radio production work in the studio or at home. It’s compre­hensive, yet understandable features make it the ideal companion for rapid on-the-spot radio programs. Small, reliable and 19" rack mounting ideal for production rooms. It can also double as an On-Air mixer or implemented in your own Internet Radio station. If your budget is tight, it never becomes obsolete as it can revert to production use, if, at a later date you fit in a larger On-Air mixer.

MusiQ XB-10 features a responsive 3-band, swept mid frequency EQ design which utilises MusiQ with optimised slope for a variety of sources. Output Limiter A variable limiter ensures the level does not exceed a pre-defined level. Back panel option switches allow the limiter to be bypassed. A trim pot is used to vary the threshold and an LED on the front panel indicates when the limiter has triggered. CompACT Compressor XB-10 features our ComPACT compressor on each of its mic channels. CompACT (Adaptive Compression Technology) is a program-dependent audio leveller. Unlike other compressors, which are effective only at reducing loud sounds, CompACT combines both downward and upward compression with peak limiting. Low level signals are given a gain boost, mid level signals are mildly compressed with a soft knee response, and high level signals are limited.

The new AIRLAB DT radio ON-AIR console is D&R’s solution for applications where features and functions have to be weighed up against operational simplicity. A simple direct accessible control surface combined with intelligent instantly reset-able digital functions enables customizing to station requirements, and even to personal requirements, thanks to the use of a personalized chip card, holding all important functional data. D&R\'s AIRLAB has a welded steel drop through frame that will accommodate a maximum of 16 triple input modules with or without EQ, a digital AES/EBU in/output module, an USB module, a Control Module and Telco modules (up to 16) and the master section. The perfect mixing board for FM Broadcasting, Podcasting, Webcasting, or streaming to the internet!

The main outputs are electronically balanced (transformer balancing is an option) and the majority of connectors are on balanced XLRs.
With a sales track record (2017) of more than 900 consoles in the field, this On-Air mixing console has proved its popularity and... reliability.

The Airmate-8 has the usual stereo faders, stereo Aux send and return, monitor master with "follow phones" and a phones output with a split control function.

There is a balance control to continuously adjust the volume between main output and stereo Cue signal.

In addition, there is a special Radio On-air/production section featuring; Self­op switching to automatically cut control room level when the D.J. mic is active; a Clean feed output to also drive

an external Telephone Hybrid for talk shows and interviews, if you need more Hybrid channels than the 2 built in ones; a special announcer output that normally follows main output but can be

switched so that the main output, or any cue signal that is selected, can be heard when in the "follow phones" mode.

A large Talkback switch activates the built-in electret talkback microphone for easy communication with the Clean-feed output, Aux output and/or Announcer output.
