Looking for a simple, easy to use mixer that delivers an exceptional audio performance? The Spirit E Series is here. For recording, live, install or broadcast use there’s a Spirit E Series for you.

Sonic integrity through design
The emphasis with the Spirit E Series is very firmly on quality audio performance, with an easy to understand control surface uncluttered by unnecessary facilities. Mic and line inputs are provided on balanced XLR and 1/4" jack connectors for optimum performance, with the main stereo outputs on balanced XLRs for better integration with other professional equipment. There are also insert points on every mono channel and the mix outputs for external signal processing.

Comprehensive monitoring control
Because levels are constantly changing throughout the signal path – from the preamp stage, through filtering and EQ – the Spirit E Series provides peak LEDs on all input channels. These monitoring LEDs are fed from multiple points in the circuit path to ensure nothing gets overlooked. The main stereo mix has two 10-segment LED meters, with a SOLO indicator to show whether any solo channels or aux masters are being monitored. With all this information instantly available, efficient control is easy to maintain.

They also employ proportional illumination to show signal levels when approaching peaks. This feature allows you to maximise the quality of any signal by utilising all of the available headroom.

The Ampetronic P6-1 Induction Loop Driver is a hearing assistive device that allows listeners with a "T-Coil" enabled hearing aid to receive a signal by way of induction. This method can greatly reduce background noise commonly experienced when a hearing aid is operating with an internal microphone.

Capable of up to 100m2 coverage. The P6-1 delivers excellent speech intelligibility and is suitable for both vocal and music transmissions.

The FreedomLoop PL features a line level input, Automatic Gain Control (AGC), and adjustable frequency response to assist with the mitigation of metal loss within a given environment.

The dbx 2231 Graphic Equalizers is a useful audio signal processing tool for situations where precise frequency control is required across the audible frequency spectrum. The 2231 can tune any acoustical environment from the studio to the concert hall to decrease resonances, increase clarity, and flatten the overall frequency response of the environment. The long throw faders of the EQ allow very precise settings for accurate equalization curves.

All active equalizers, by nature of design, add noise when boosting or cutting that can easily degrade the otherwise acceptable signal-to-noise ratio of a sound system. Drastic equalization can result in a loss of 20dB or more signal to noise. dbx Type III Noise Reduction was engineered specifically for applications such as this. It provides up to 20dB of noise reduction, thus restoring the dynamic range necessary for even the most demanding professional sound systems. The combination of proper wiring, proper gain structure and TYPE III™ Noise Reduction should render your sound system virtually noise free.

The dbx 231 graphic equaliser that includes two 31-band channels of 1/3-octave equalization, +12 dB input gain range, switchable +6 or +12 dB boost/cut range, 20mm faders and an intuitive user interface with comprehensive output and gain reduction metering.

The dbx 1215 is a 2 channel grapic equaliser that provides standard features like dual channels, 15 2/3 octave bands, ISO frequency centers, +/-12 dB input gain range, and switchable 40Hz/18 dB per octave high-pass filters.

Other features include 45 mm faders; selectable +/-6dB or +/-15dB boost/cut range for precise gain adjustments, XLR, barrier strip, and 1/4'' TRS connectors for options when interfacing to other equipment, balanced inputs and outputs for quiet operation, and chassis/signal ground lift capabilities for quick hum isolation.

It features 2 mic/line inputs with individual gain controls and 16 transformer isolated outputs that are individually switchable for mic or line level operation. The PRESSPOWER 2 includes a 20-segment LED level meter, an internal test tone generator, a built-in headphone monitor amp with volume control, high-pass filters, and phantom power -- all conveniently front-panel accessible. 

The high-performance input stage provides clean audio even in high RF environments. 

The unit can be powered by 115 / 230 VAC - 50 / 60 Hz, by (4) 9 V internal batteries or with an external DC supply (12 - 36 VDC) connected via rear terminals. This allows the unit to be powered by a car battery, cigarette lighter, camera pack battery, etc. In the event of an AC power failure or battery exhaustion, the unit will automatically switch to alternate power by selecting the strongest Voltage available. 

Additional active mic/line outputs can be added with an optional 16 channel PRESS2XP expander modules, giving you 32 total active outputs. Additional mic outputs can be achieved by adding passive PB Series Press Boxes to outputs set to line level.

The PRESSPOWER 2 is available without the padded case (PRESSPOWER 2 NC) and it mounts in a standard 4 space, 19" rackmount. Its case is also available separately (PRESS CASE, pictured above).

The XTA DS800 Mic/Line Distribution System is a high quality active distribution/splitter containing eight channels of processing in 2U of rack space. Each channel features one actively balanced input and a total of four outputs, two of which are individually actively balanced and normally connected to Front Of House and Stage Monitor consoles. The two remaining outputs are transformer isolated and located on the front panel of the unit. These are typically used as broadcasting or recording feeds. A maximum of 50dB gain is available via the five position Gain switch. Phantom power (48VDC) is provided, and is switchable to each input by selecting 'Phantom Power' on the front panel.

The MS-43A is built around a four-channel module 1RU high. Each channel has an XLR input and an XLR direct output. The isolated output appears on XLRs, both on the front panel and in parallel on the rear of the unit. Each isolated output has individual ground lift.  The MS-43A is ideal for use with multi-track recorders and for splitting microphones between PA systems and outside broadcast vans. For splitting the signal from a low-Z microphone between 3 mixers. 4 channels, each with female XLR-type input and 3 male XLR-type outputs (1 Direct and 2 Isolated). Isolated outputs have ground lift switches.

The FP16 is a 1-input, 6-output, compact, selfcontained audio distribution amplifier for routing multiple audio signal feeds without incurring loss, distortion, hum or noise. The, intelligent design; reliable components and-meticulous construction of the FP16 make it the optimum choice for broadcast stations-AM, FM, or TV, studios or ENG vans-as well as recording studios, duplicating houses, and telecommunications and production facilities.

The dbx 160A is part of the legendary dbx 160 family of compressor/limiters. The same classic sound, easy set-up and no compromise metering is now married to an improved signal path and stronger chassis design. The result is a industry standard compressor/limiter which is digital-ready and road tough.

The dbx 1066 compressor/gate offers a variety of compression characteristics from rapid peak reduction to smoothed soft compression across an overall mix. It also features a PeakStopPlus limiter that represses those unwanted transients from damaging equipment later in the signal path, whilst minimizing the distortion common to many other “hard” limiters. 

The RQD 6400 Twin Stereo Compressor/Limiter is two independent stereo compressor/limiters. The rear panel features four female XLR connectors for audio input (Channel 1 left, Channel 1 right, Channel 2 left and Channel 2 right) and four male XLR connectors for audio output (Channel 1 left, Channel 1 right, Channel 2 left and Channel 2 right).

The compressor has a variable ratio from 1.5:1 to 10:1 and a adjustable threshold. Attack time is selected by a switch as either fast or normal. Controls for both the compressor and the limiter sections are identical for both stereo channels of the RQD 6400. The only other controls are the power switch located on the front panel and the link button that joins the two stereo compressor and limiter sidechains together to form a quad unit.The ability to perform extremely high-quality compression and limiting in quad makes the RQD 6400 a powerful tool for both film and television work.

The Dominator II from Aphex Systems is a stereo multiband peak limiter designed to fit a wide range of applications. Through the use of multiband techniques along with proprietary circuits, the audibility of the limiting action has been greatly reduced, especially when compared to conventional limiters.

The Drawmer DS201 is a dual channel noise gate, which may be used as two independent channels or linked for true stereo operation. 

The SPL SX-2 Vitalizer is a Psychoacoustic Stereo Equalizer that can perform stereo enhancement and low end control and clarity. It can be used to enhance low end and mid-hi range independently in terms of depth, punch, transparency and stereo image.

The SPL Auto-Dynamic De-Esser is a highly specialised audio tool for removing undesired sibilant frequencies in a very simple and musical way without compromising the timbre and natural character of a voice. To solve this difficult problem, SPL has developed a new circuit design that combines ease of use with natural sound characteristics and the highest level of technical performance. SPL’s Auto Dynamic De-Esser monitors the S-frequency spectrum and automatically detects the sibilant frequencies. The de-ess bandwidth is set so narrowly around the range of the sibilance that neighbouring frequencies remain unaffected.

The Finalizer is carefully designed to optimise the overall levels and enhance the energy in your mix. The use of a three-band compressor, limiter and expander makes the dynamics section of the Finalizer extremely flexible, while maintaining the fidelity of the original material. In combination with a “normalizer” and an in-built five-band equaliser, the Finalizer gives you a very powerful tool to complete the all important final mix and master.
