Page 5 of 9 EURODESK SX4882 The Meter Bridge - Functionality and Stunningly Cool Once you've had a meterbridge on deck, it's hard to go back. Essential in the studio and amazingly cool live, the meterbridge provides visual confirmation of what is going on with all your signals with just a quick glance. Each input channel, all the subgroups and the main outputs feature 12-level LEDs organized incrementally with traffic-light style color coding, so you can verify input and output levels, even on the Mix B channels. Many console manufacturers offer a meterbridge only as an expensive, optional addon, however, the SX4882 provides it standard. APPLICATIONS Church Services Running live sound in houses of worship has become a truly professional pastime with the advent of affordable, quality sound gear and the rise of congregations that require bigger and more capable sound systems. The multiple input and auxiliary send options of the SX4882 are designed to accommodate a wide variety of performance needs, large and small. Worship services, choir, and music ensembles are easily mixed and recorded live. Go directly into your digital interface from the subgroup outs, Mix B or Main Out, right into your tracking software. CD's or DVDs can then be distributed to members of the congregation who may have trouble attending services. Caution: your status may be elevated in the church from sound grunt to near-savior. Corporate A/V Corporate AV is a truly multi-media experience, where there may be many different input sources - from a laptop, MP3, CD, DVD, television, projector, or camera. The SX4882 has RCA tape in and two external ¼" 2-track inputs, plus each channel has the choice of balanced or unbalanced, +4 dB or -10dB input levels. Mix B provides additional input options for routing audio sources into the console. With 48 total channels and 82 total inputs, even the largest conventions can be accommodated. Corporate presentations often require sound reinforcement to a large room, typically with several pairs of speakers scattered throughout the auditorium. With eight subgroup outs, you have 4 sets of individual stereo controls, in addition to the main L/R out. Mix B provides an additional stereo mix, for a total of 6 separate stereo output options. Recording Studio Features • 8 subgroups with dual parallel outputs to drive 8 or 16 channels of a recording device or digital interface • Mix B mixer (chs. 25-48) returns tape outputs from recording device or digital interface for immediate playback, overdub tracking, and mix down. Mix B input can be assigned to Aux mixes and studio headphone mixes, and also be assigned to Main Channel or Mix B channel with flip of button. • 6 Stereo Aux returns - two aux returns assignable to subgroups and main mix enable Aux return signal be assigned directly to a record track. The other four returns are designed to facilitate monitoring of aux return signals and do not assign to subgroups. • Separate control room and studio outputs, additional external 2-track monitoring, dual independent headphone outputs, capability for four headphone mixes. • Built in talkback mic with volume control knob. Assign talkback mic to Aux 1, Aux 2, Studio, and Headphone mixes. • Tons of soloing capability all through the master output section Continued on next page Back Panel Channel Inputs Main Mixer channel identifier Mic/Line source select Bal./unbal. line-level input jack Channel Insert sends/returns, post trim and pre-EQ Mix B Channel bal./ unbal. input Mix B operating level switch, +4 or -10 dB +48 V Phantom Power Switch to chs. 1-24 in blocks of 8 20dB pad attenuates overly hot inputs Bal. microphone XLR input jack Direct output Parallel subgroup outputs
