Description
HIGH-END MULTICHANNEL VOLUME CONTROLLER
As a cost-effective alternative to our full-featured Stereo and Surround Monitoring Controllers MTC 2381 and SMC 2489, the SPL volume controllers are dedicated solely to level control.
The Volume2 model is intended for stereo applications, while the Volume8 can control up to 8 channels. Both devices are designed with active circuitries to circumvent inevitable disadvantages of passive circuitries that result in impedance variation and therefore degraded linearity in frequency response.
FEATURES
The Volume8 is built only with analog circuitry and performance, and its high quality parts in sophisticated circuitry design are prerequisites to superior audio quality: - Custom designed, high end, eight-ganged potentiometer with invariable precision at each and every gain level - Illuminated passive mute switches from ALPS, relay switching for all channels - Input and outputs over DB-25 connectors (to multicore XLR or 1/4-inch TRS) - A high quality power supply with toroidal transformer - Input and outputs over DB-25 connectors (to multicore XLR or 1/4-inch TRS) - Massive, 45 mm/1.78-inch diameter aluminum knob ensure consistent, refined handling - The elegant, compact format housing (215 x 80 mm or 8.5 x 3.1 inch) allows for flexible desktop positioning near or below a computer monitor or generally saving space in positioning.
SPECIFICATIONS
The electrical pin configuration of the balanced DB 25 input and output sockets comply with the TASCAM standard (see graphic below). The nominal input level is +4 dB,otherlevelsaretransmitted1:1. DB 25 to XLR, TRS or RCA multicore cables are required for connection of input and output signals. The eight channels of the DB 25 connector at one side are routed to eight single XLR, TRS or RCA connectors on the other side.
The channel configuration is free (input=output). Here are some common multi-channel configurations: - SMPTE/ITU: L/R/C/LFE/LS/RS/L(t/o)/R(t/0) - DTS: L/R/LS/RS/C/LFE/L(t/o)/R(t/0) - Film: L/LS/C/RS/R/LFE/L(t/o)/R(t/0) - SDDS: L/LC/C/RC/R/LFE/LS/RS
