The ProD8 is a high density rackmount 8-channel 19" direct
box that is specifically designed to interface keyboards and
pre-recorded backing tracks to the PA system with redundant
inputs for live performance back-up.
The ProD8's input panel is equipped with two A-B ¼"
inputs per DI channel for main and back-up sources, throughput
for personal monitoring and an effects loop that allows both
A-B sources to share the same effects for each channel. The
output panel features a XLR connector, -15dB input pad selector
and ground lift witch. A 180º polarity reverse switch
is internally mounted and factory set with pin 2 hot. Completely
passive, the ProD8 employs eight custom wound Radial transformers
that are linear from 20Hz to 18kHz and able to withstand highly
dynamic levels from sources such as digital samplers and drum
machines without flinching. To reduce interference from outside
magnetic fields, the transformers are equipped with a mu-metal-nickel
outer shield thus reducing phase distortion to an absolute
minimum.
For greater system setup flexibility, the Radial ProD8
features a reversible set of rack ears that allows the ¼"
input panel or the XLR output panels to be position at the
front or back, depending on the system engineers preference. |
