The AAP-3190 has been designed to fulfil the role of a general purpose audio monitoring amplifier for the broadcast industry.
Most monitoring applications only require low audio power levels, but high quality performance in the smallest convenient packaging. The Eurocard format is ideal for this use as it allows these monitoring amplifiers to be positioned in the same frame as other modules such as audio distribution amplifiers and switchers.
The front panel of the unit features two LED bargraph displays with VU drivers for visual indication of input levels. These may be switched to indicate Left + Right and Left - Right so that the phase of a stereo signal may be checked. |
This allows easy monitoring of phase throughout the audio chain to ensure that phase reversals do not result in loss of audio in mono recordings or transmission.
The AAP-3190 is provided with links for matching the gain to input level so that a variety of source levels may be accommodated.
The front panel volume control may be disabled and remote control exercised by a single potentiometer located in a convenient position.
The AAP-3190 is suitable for mounting in IRT 1 RU or 3 RU Eurocard chassis. The maximum number of AAP-3190's per frame may be limited by PSU capability and the desired output operating level. |
