SUPPLY & MONITOR UNIT FOR 4 x MS1224
£529.00 MS1224PS-BU
BACK-UP
POWER SUPPLY UNIT FOR MS1224 £529.00
The MS1224 is a 12 channel, 1 into 4 Unity Gain
Active Microphone Splitter designed for applications
where multiple feeds are required from one set
of microphones without the signal degradation
experienced with passive splitting solutions.
The Unity Gain design principle combined with
excellent line driving ability ensures that
unity levels are delivered at the end of each
feed, even over considerable distance, thereby
saving time in recalibrating levels.
Each of the MS1224's channels has four independently
buffered, transformer balanced outputs and a
fifth dedicated parallel Link output. The Link
output may be used to provide a direct, non
active feed, for instance to the FOH console,
or it can be used to daisy chain adjacent channels
to provide more output feeds from a single microphone,
for instance for Press Box applications. The
inputs are electronically balanced with a Pad
switch for connection of line level signals.
Switchable Phantom Power is provided with a
Phantom Presence LED.
The MS1224 incorporates a channel monitoring
circuit, which is accessed on the PSU unit.
Each channel has a Listen button that connects
it momentarily both to an LED bargraph and headphone
socket on the PSU front panel. The headphone
monitor circuit incorporates a dynamics enhancement
and protection system. This controls the dynamics
of the signal in a way that amplifies very low
background levels whilst limiting high signal
levels. This enables monitoring of microphone
function during set up without the need of a
vocalist being present on the mic. It also provides
user protection against sudden loud signals.
A unique design feature of the MS1224 is the
option to configure the way that Input and Output
connectors are presented on the front and rear
of the unit. As each customer has their own
views on this we have given the flexibility
of presenting the Input and two Outputs on the
front and three Outputs on the rear, or vice-versa.
In addition the Output designated as Link can
be positioned either below the Input connector,
or the top connector of the group of three Outputs.
Thereby giving four possible permutations. The
required configuration can be specified ex-works
or simply reconfigured at a later stage.
Main Features
• 12 Channel 1 into 4 (12 into 48) Active
Mic Splitter
• Unique Input & Output configuration
options
• Unity Gain signal path for ease of set-up
• Drives long cable runs without level
loss

CAN-D
HEADPHONE
DELAY £239.00
You’re mixing FOH for a gig. That means
the speakers are over there, and you’re
over here. Is it any wonder that your headphones
sound confusing?
We all know that even short distances cause
time delays. As a consequence, listening on
headphones when you’re any distance from
the stage will leave you with a confused mess
of direct and delayed sound.
Enter Can-D. It’s simple really; Can-D
delays your headphones so that they match the
sound from the speakers. With delay times of
up to 678ms, you can be 226m from the stage
and still wallow in the sweet sound of time-coherent
cans.
And if you like your cans exceptionally loud,
you’ll be happy to know that with Can-D’s
substantial headphone amplifier, 9 out of 10
engineers found full volume to be 'unbearably
loud'. *
Of course, Can-D is rock-solid and tour-proof;
its internal PSU and solid aluminium case ensure
it’s ready for anything you can throw
at it. Or anything you can throw it at.
Loud and clear… sweet.
Can-D
*HEALTH WARNING: Your hearing can be permanently
damaged when exposed to excessive sound levels,
especially when combined with prolonged listening
periods. Listen sensibly.
Key Features: • Stereo delay – up to
678ms
