Sonifex RB-SS10 Details
The RB-SS10 10 way stereo analogue source
selector/mixer is a 1U rack-mount unit that produces a stereo analogue
audio output from 10 selectable stereo analogue sources. There are 10
illuminated front panel push-buttons, which select and indicate the
current channel selection. The selection and indication is also
available through a remote connector on the rear panel. To stop
accidental front panel selection there is a remote input to inhibit the
front panel buttons.
Two of the stereo inputs are on XLR so
that you can hot-plug audio sources,
e.g. portable recorders.
As well as being able to act as a source select module, the RB-SS10 can act as a mixer, by enabling the mix mode (using
the remote input).
The
gain for left and right inputs can be individually adjusted by using
the pre-set potentiometers on the front panel. As well as routing the
selected audio signal, the unit will also route a remote signal input
through the remote connector to the selected input source, for starting
external audio equipment such as a CD player.
The
front panel headphone output has its own volume control, which is
independent of the level adjustment for the main outputs, and has a
maximum output level of +12dBu. The volume control can be made to also
alter the output level of the main XLR outputs by using a switch on the
rear panel to enable/disable this feature.
There
is a designation strip on the front panel, useful for giving the
buttons a meaningful description. The strip covers the input gain
controls so that once configured, they can’t easily be altered - ideal
for installation work. The LED on the front panel is used to indicate
that power is present on the unit.
