DBX 442 DRIVE RACK COMPLETE EQ – LOUDSPEAKER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM EX-DEMO

DBX-442  Complete Equalization and Loudspeaker Management System

442 DriveRack? Complete Equalization Management System. The DriveRack? 442
Complete Equalization Management System is the latest product in the DriveRack?
line. The 442 is based on the same operating system as the DriveRack? 480 and
offers the user four inputs and four outputs on XLR connectors. Each channel has EQ
in the form of a 9-Band Parametric or a 31-Band Graphic and Notch Filters. In addition
the 442 features a filter set that can be used to create a Highpass, Lowpass or Bandpass
filter. Dynamics processing is available on all channels with a Compressor/Limiter that
emulates the classic dbx? 160. The output section of the 442 offers delay, output level
and phase compensation. The 442 is also capable of running dual real-time analyzers
on channels three and four. A 480 master, a PC GUI, or a 480R remote can control the
442. Any combination of 480s, 481s, 482s and 442s can be controlled on a single
DriveRack? network consisting of up to 100 units.

Based on a two-in, six-out topology, the DC-One is designed primarily for users of small-to-medium sized sound systems in both mobile and installed applications. While the unit is an all-new development based on a powerful SHARC processor, it is 100 percent compatible with all settings from other Electro-Voice signal processors. A large part of DC-Oneʼs development was aimed at ensuring that users can easily handle its serious digital horsepower and high-end audio performance. Free. PC-Editor software is available, or the DC-One can be operated via the front panel.   A/D Conversion    24-Bit Delta-Sigma

The Soundweb London BLU-160 offers configurable I/O, configurable signal processing and a high bandwidth, fault tolerant digital audio bus.

The BLU-160 has open architecture which is fully configurable through HiQnet™ London Architect. A rich palette of processing and logic objects and a "drag and drop” method of configuration provide a simple and familiar design environment.

This processor features a low latency, fault tolerant digital audio bus of 256 channels which uses standard Category 5e cabling giving a distance of 100m between compatible devices. Fiber media converters can be used to increase the distance between devices to over 40km.

Four card slots which accommodate analog inputs, analog outputs, digital inputs and digital outputs in banks of four facilitate many different device I/O configurations.

Analog Input Cards provide software configurable gain in 6dB steps up to +48dB per channel and software selectable Phantom Power per channel. Digital Input Cards and Digital Output Cards process AES/EBU and/or S/PDIF audio and offer a variety of clocking and syncing options. (Further information about the I/O cards can be found on dedicated datasheets)

Phantom Power, Sync, Signal Present and Clip information per channel is easily accessible, without the requirement for a PC, from clear front panel LED indication. Device-specific information such as Device Name, Device Type, Firmware Version Number, Time, IP Address and Subnet Mask is available from the front panel display. A bi-directional locate function allows devices to be identified both from and within HiQnet London Architect.

12 Control Inputs and 6 Logic Outputs allow the BLU-160 to be integrated with GPIO compatible devices. The Soundweb London Interface Kit, comprehensive documentation which details how Soundweb London systems can be integrated with third party control systems, is included within the installation of HiQnet London Architect.

The BLU-160 and the other members of the Soundweb London family provide the building blocks of the perfectly tailored system solution.
