OVERVIEW
Bella 32 is a multi buss summing matrix confidence monitor designed for outside
broadcast trucks, studios, theatre and professional audio applications. It is perfect
for easy and cost effective monitoring of multiple network audio sources, ideal for
busy production environments and perfect for monitoring multiple network intercom &
programme feeds.
The name Bella 32 refers to 32 network audio inputs, however there are also 2 local
analogue audio inputs on the rear so there are actually 34 front panel monitoring
selection switches.
34 front panel monitoring selection switches are provided enabling sources to easily
be turned on/off the loudspeaker monitoring mix, or solo
’d to this mix if required.
Alongside a front panel shaft encoder these 34 front panel switches can also be
used to adjust input gain and pan the output of the channel.
In addition to the LS monitoring mix there are a number of fixed ratio mixers
providing simple but functional circuits between the network inputs and outputs.
There are 32 network audio outputs in total. These are pre-configured to provide all
possible scenarios of monitoring mix outputs (pre LS cut, pre LS Dim, Mono, stereo
etc). In addition to the monitoring mix network outputs there are two network outputs
derived from the two local analogue inputs and also 14 outputs from the internal
mixers.
Three internal 1kHz tone generators and three internal white noise generators
provide the final six network audio outputs. Three of each type are provided to
provide the 3 most commonly used line up levels in the World.
As well as the network audio outputs 3 line level analogue outputs are provided and
an AES3 output, these follow the switched/ solo mix buss.
The 2 front panel loudspeakers are driven from a DSP to compensate for their size,
the result is surprisingly good, with clear crisp vocals and highly intelligible
reproduction of wider band audio sources. They are driven from a class D amplifier
and have more than sufficient output level for most environments.
