1.3.1 VU-meter and stereo phase vector

The   Stereo   Phase   Vector  allows  measuring   the
stereo   phase   relationship   and   therefore   the
grade of stereo sensation achieved. The range is
0 degrees (mono) to 90º (maximum stereo); with
inverted   phase   indication   (180   grades),   to   pre-
vent to the operator that a connection’s error ex-
ists   in   the   microphones,   or   among   equipment’s
with analogical connections.

The analogical section is gauged in steps of 20
degrees,   with   quadrant   of   vectors.   This   allows
following the quick program variations. By other
hand, the digital section retains for an instant the
maximum value reached by the phase rotation.

A   musical   program   with   good   stereo   sensation
will   have   averages   (analogic)   of   40   to   60   de-
grees, with peaks (digital) of 80 degrees. Read-
ings of 0 and 20 almost indicate a monaural sig-
nal. The indication -0 or INVERTED implies the
serious problem of inverted phase. This must be
quickly   corrected   because   the   inverted   signals
‘disappear’ when they are listen in mono FM re-
ceivers.

1.3.2 Timer / Clock

a)

Provides the 

current

 

time

 while the micro-

phone channels are turned-off.

b)

Shows a 

count up 

(minutes: seconds)

 

when the microphones are on the air.

The timer mode is  

activated  

when the mics are

activated using the Master On-Air button

.

  When

you turn off the microphones, the time will be re-
tained on screen by 3 sec and then the display
will return to ‘clock mode’. If you turn on the mi-
crophones again (in this 3 sec window) the timer
will resume.

1.3.3 2630-VQR module

This optional module allows partially restore the
voice   quality   that   has   been   degraded   by   tele-
phone transmission. Can be used with the inter-
nal   telephone   hybrid   ,   or   with   external   hybrids
connected   to   the   console   via   "External   Hybrid"
connector.

The 2630-VQR module has three 100 mm faders
that allow to the operator adjust the degree of re-
construction applied to the audio; and a LED indi-
cator   showing   restoration   levels.   The   module
also features and noise gate of variable thresh-
old.

Refer to "3.6 Module 2630 VQR" for the opera-
tion of this module.

1.3.4 AoIP output

The output "AoIP" streams the program mix to an-
other console Solidyne 2600. This streaming also
be decoded with any streaming player software; or
by using a Solidyne ADA102 decoder. 

1.3.5 AES-3 outputs 

(AES/EBU)

Optionally, models XL & XX can have AES-3 out-
puts

 

for 

program 

and 

audition

.

1.3.6 HD3 & HD5 monitoring box

The   optional   accessories   Solidyne   HD3   and   HD5

are compact docks that concentrates all connections

needed to the monitoring at the Studio.
