Performance Features
|
- Balanced Inputs and Outputs
One pair of balanced high level inputs and balanced outputs for all six outputs.
- Precision Tracking Variable Rate Volume Control
Volume levels are controlled by a new multi-stage precision digitally controlled attenuator system with a tracking accuracy of 0.1dB.
Levels change in 214 individual 0.5dB steps. The variable rate volume control circuitry provides an ideal rate of change with control rotation.
- Tone Control with Assignable Bypass
The bass and treble control circuit elements can be removed from the signal path of any selected input.
- Alphanumeric Fluorescent Display
The multi-function front panel display indicates the source selection and volume levels. The setup mode selections and adjustments are also displayed.
The display intensity is fully adjustable.
- Electromagnetic Input Switching with Level Trim Adjustment and Title Reassignment
Digital logic integrated circuits drive electromagnetic switches on all inputs and operating functions for reliable, noiseless, distortion free
switching. All eight inputs on the C45 can be matched in level, so that there are no abrupt changes in volume levels between the different inputs.
Any of the eight inputs can have their input title reassigned to match the sources in the system.
