Featuring a Made in USA MOV, three always-on front panel outs, 10 switchable rear panel outs, front panel USB-C charging port and high rejection RF interference filter.
Catapult Audio over Cat 5
Radial Engineering’s Catapult Rack RX and TX are the new additions to the best-selling Catapult Range of Analog Audio over Cat5 analog audio snakes. These rackmount versions feature 12 XLRs on each, split into three banks, each with their own noise-eliminating ground lift switch and RJ45 Ethernet jacks on the rear panel. You can use the three Ethernet cables to connect all 12 channels to one location or even split them off to any of the Radial Catapult stage boxes, giving you a fully customisable audio snake system that can even feature transformer isolation where needed (on M and L models).
Solid State Logic
S400 Broadcast Audio Console
S400 is the latest control surface for SSL’s System T range, providing the key benefits of dedicated per-fader displays and metering in a compact, cost-effective frame. The new S400-16, 32 and 48 can be combined with the complete portfolio of SSL’s ground-breaking System T consoles, control interfaces, Tempest Processing Engines and Network I/O options. It can be specified as part of a larger System T installation, including as a remote surface for flypack or cloud-based systems, or in stand-alone configurations for smaller broadcast facilities or OB vehicles.
SSL Pure Drive Quad
The PURE DRIVE QUAD harnesses Solid State Logic’s renowned SuperAnalogue PureDrive microphone preamp technology, originally featured in the ORIGIN console. This advanced unit introduces a new DRIVE mode, comprehensive connectivity, and state-of-the- art digital conversion, all within a compact 4-channel 2U rackmount format. The ORIGIN recording console, a contemporary-classic from SSL, first introduced the groundbreaking PureDrive microphone preamplifier. This innovative preamp maintains the clarity and punch of SSL’s previous designs while also offering the flexibility to switch its character to a warm, harmonically rich, and driven tone that varies with gain.
Rocknroller
The Original and the Best! Rocknroller Multi-Carts are a range of nine different, 8-in-1 transformable multi-carts capable of carrying between 90kg to 315kg. Use as a hand truck, a dolly, hand trailer or even multi-media portable display unit, Rocknroller Multi-Carts all feature Tubeless, No-Flat pneumatic wheels with models available for a range of applications including hard and flat surface, all-rounder and even specific for off-road, all-terrain use. Amber Technology will have several Multi-Carts on display featuring some of the fantastic optional upgrades available.
Neutrik
Neutrik’s popular Dante modules are back! Connect your legacy audio gear to the Dante world. The Line I/O to Dante Interface is an end of network device. It is a breakout box which allows two channels of audio to be integrated into a Dante network. Simultaneously, NA-2I2O-DLINE converts a Dante stream into analog audio signals. Hence, it is possible to use this tiny box to feed analog audio signals into the Dante network while at the same time receiving a mix from another Dante source. Line I/O to DANTE Interface is designed for harsh stage conditions. It therefore features lockable chassis connectors for both the audio and network connections. For fixed installations, the rubber protection can be removed. With optional mounting brackets or a rack panel, the box can be mounted below tables, in floor boxes, or in equipment racks.
The NA-4I4O-AES72 is a 4-channel stage box for transmitting microphone levels, analog line levels, AES3, DMX or even intercom via one single CAT cable. The device has male and female XLRs in the same housing and can be used directly as a splitter for monitoring. An additional etherCON serves as feedthrough and allows further looping of the signals to other devices. A ground lift at each input prevents possible ground loops. In addition, each input connector offers the possibility to invert the signal.
NTi Audio
The handheld XL3 Acoustic Analyzer is a must-have device for event monitoring. The XL3 Sound Level Meter indicates when level limits are being exceeded during live shows. This information is available through any browser. This makes life easier for the Front of House (FoH) engineer and gives peace
of mind to the event organizers. Levels at several locations can be simultaneously monitored. Every XL3 has an online, built-in large screen (XL-View) mode, which continuously streams three selectable levels together with freely-definable limits. Warnings, when levels are near or exceeding the limits, are clearly visualized with orange or red backgrounds. The levels are available for free to display in any browser.
