– FEATURES OF THE LINE-MASTER REFERENCE MONITOR

ANALOGUE  INPUT:

Symmetrical XLR input (20dBu Head Room) utilizing 27Bit conversion technology.

DIGITAL INPUT:

AES3-Input for digital signals. The channel to be used is specified in the main selection menu by

selecting the appropriate box. The input sampling frequency is in the range of 30-110kHz.

INPUT  CONTROL:

The stacked 27Bit converter works with a headroom of 20dBu. This enables safe listening and

those distortions  caused by over loading  above full volume levels  are excluded. In case  of an

inadvertent operation above the full volume scale, an in-built limiter will intercept a dangerous

overload of the box and will prevent destruction of the driver.

INPUT SWITCH:

Using the control on the rear side, it is possible to leaf through a series of installation parameters.

If a parameter requires changing, the control needs to be pressed and rotated until the desired

value is displayed. In this way, it is possible under “Digital In Left” or “Digital In Right” to choose

the  required  data  input  word  that  feeds  the  signal  processor  in  DSP.  If  both  input  words  are

activated, then a mono signal will be generated and reproduced.

REMOTE  CONTROL:

The remote control permits a control of volume from the listening area without a reduction of

word length in the input signal.

There are 3 types of remote control:

- Per PC remote control software

This permits access to all parameters of the signal processor that are also available using

the controls on the rear side of the speaker cabinet.

- per analogue hardware controller

This is connected to the loudspeaker and drives a VCA input signal for the control of the

output stage’s amplification.

- per digital hardware controller

Similar to the PC software , this permits access to all parameters of the signal processor

that are also available using the controls on the rear of the speaker cabinet.
