M-Audio Studiophile BX5A Monitor M-Audio has introduced the Studiophile BX5a , updated version of the company's BX5. The BX5a refines M-Audio's highly acclaimed BX5 near-field reference monitors, renowned for packing a lot of punch for their size. The 5" low-frequency driver cone is crafted from Kevlar, an extremely resilient material typically found in much more expensive monitors. Curved cone design coupled with high-temperature voice coils and damped rubber surrounds deliver incredible fidelity and durability. The 1 in . high-frequency drivers' magnetically shielded natural silk domes produce crisp top end while still being gentle on the ears. The 70-watt bi-amped power and expertly tuned crossovers round out an incredible sounding pair of reference monitors with a footprint small enough to fit just about anywhere. M-Audio's new BX5a employs Kevlar for low-frequency driver construction. The same material used in bulletproof vests, Kevlar's high resilience makes it ideal for use in speaker cones -- although it is typically reserved for monitors with higher price tags than the BX5a . Needless to say, Kevlar represents a significant improvement over the polypropylene and paper used in most monitors for this price. Active monitors have a distinct advantage over unpowered monitors, in that the built-in power amps are designed specifically to work with the drivers and crossovers in a tuned system. Bi-amplification further refines the concept by dedicating separate power amps to the highs and lows. Combined with a finely tuned crossover, this design insures that both the high -- and low-frequency drivers are asked to deliver only the frequencies they are more efficient at reproducing. Unchecked, the electromagnetic waves emanating from your speakers can wreak havoc with your computer's video monitor or a nearby TV. The BX 5a is magnetically shielded so that all of your electronic equipment can coexist on your desktop without interference.M-Audio Studiophile SBX Subwoofer Bass Management While M-Audio's BX8s and BX5s offer as much bass response as you'll find in any monitors of similar size, the addition of an SBX subwoofer puts 120 watts behind those low frequencies that you can really feel. In fact, so many consumers have subwoofers that you're not really mixing accurately without having a sub yourself. M-Audio's unique Stereo Bass Management System splits the signal at the variable crossover frequency, routing everything below to the sub and everything above to the satellites. The SBX is so affordable that it also makes an excellent companion to other monitors from stereo to full surround setups. About Stereo Bass Management When subwoofers are added to many systems, all frequencies are routed to both the main monitors and the sub. The sub typically has a low-pass filter to roll off the highs (as do the BX8s and BX5s). The problem is that both the main monitors and the sub are still trying to put out the same low frequencies, thereby compromising fidelity. Enter our Stereo Bass Management System. The SBX accommodates the stereo outputs from your mixer, and your main monitors then connect to outputs on the sub as satellites. The SBX's internal crossover network splits the signal at a user-defined crossover frequency (50-180Hz), routing everything below it to the internal sub and everything above it to the satellites. This significantly improves fidelity because the components aren't tripping over each other to reproduce the same frequencies and each only has to deliver frequencies to which it is ideally suited.

Over the years, Studiophile reference monitors have earned a great reputation with recording professionals around the world. The BX8a updates our critically acclaimed BX8 near-fields. Topping the improvements list are our 8" curved Kevlar low-frequency drivers-a technology usually reserved for monitors bearing a higher price tag. Of course, they're coupled with our time-proven high-temperature voice coils and damped rubber surrounds for durability and fidelity. Magnetically shielded 1" natural silk domes give the BX8s a high-end that's both clear and easy on the ears. Custom-tuned crossovers distribute 130 Watts of bi-amplified power for optimal frequency handling by each driver. Hear for yourself why Studiophiles have become standard issue"" reference monitors. Kevlar LF drivers To insure a lifetime of service, we constructed the BX8a's 8"" low-frequency driver from woven Kevlar-the same material bulletproof vests are made from. (Kevlar is typically reserved for more expensive monitors.) Our engineers also created a curved conical design that improves room dispersion. High-damping rubber surrounds insure that the cone reaches exactly its optimal excursion for accurate reproduction. And our high-temperature voice coils guarantee that your monitors will deliver full performance no matter how many hours you use them. Silk-dome HF drivers with FerroFlow™ Our high-frequency domes are made from natural silk to counter the ringing that is inherent in the stiffer metallic materials common to other monitors. M-Audio's FerroFlow™ technology uses ferrofluid liquid cooling to dissipate heat for maximum efficiency and extended usage. Bi-amped efficiency Active (powered) monitors allow designers to optimize amplification for other components such as speakers and cabinets. And by using two separate power amps and a finely tuned crossover, the BX8a's bi-amped design insures that both the high- and low-frequency drivers are each sent only the frequencies they reproduce most efficiently. Rear-ported cabinet design The BX8a's cabinet is integrally designed with its other components for optimal performance-right down to rounded corners for reduced edge diffraction and superior imaging. Custom rear-port design eliminates the turbulence and resulting distortion caused when front ports project low frequency waves in the same path as the speakers' direct signal. Features two-way studio reference monitors stylish design 130 Watts of bi-amplified power 8"" low-frequency drivers with: curved Kevlar cones high-temperature voice coils damped rubber surround 1"" natural silk high-frequency drivers magnetically shielded XLR balanced and 1/4"" balanced/unbalanced inputs volume control power indicator Specifications frequency response: 40Hz-24kHz crossover frequency: 2.2kHz crossover filter network: 4th-order Linkwitz-Riley amplifier type: class AB monolithic low-frequency amplifier power: 0 Watts RMS into 4 ohms (woofer) at 0.5% (-46 dB) THD high-frequency amplifier power: 60 Watts RMS into 6 ohms (tweeter) at 0.5% (-46 dB) THD maximum signal-to-noise (dynamic range): > 100dB (typical A-weighted) polarity: positive signal at + input produce outward LF cone displacement input impedance: 20k ohms balanced,10k ohms unbalanced input sensitivity: 85 mV pink noise input produces 90dBA output SPL at one meter with volume control at maximum power: factory programmed for either 115V ~50/60Hz or 230V ~50/60Hz protection: RF interference, output current limiting, over temperature, turn-on/off, transient, subsonic filter, external mains fuse cabinet: vinyl-laminated MDF (enclosure natural Helmholtz resonance frequency: 30 Hz) size: 12"" x 10"" x 15""; 30.48cm x 25.4cm x 38.1cm weight: 26.4 lbs./unit; 11.97 kg.

The Audix DP2 Professional Drum Microphone Package is an American made instrument microphone, is designed to fill the specific needs of artists and engineers for both studio and live applications. Each microphone consists of a VLM (very low mass) capsule housed in a precision-machined lightweight aluminum body. The compact size, in conjunction with the newly designed D-vice gooseneck clip, allows for quick and easy set up and perfect mic placement. This DP2 Package Features: D-1 with bright contoured response for added presence and sparkle on your snare and symbols; 2 D-2s with warm, contoured response add bottom and punch for toms and floor toms; and D-4 with extended frequencies below 100Hz for bass. 4 D-Flex adjustable drum mic clips keep them all right where you want them. Protect the set with the included contoured foam-lined metal case. Don't compromise the sound of your drums. The D series mic packages will reproduce the sound of your drums exactly how you want your audience to hear them. The advantage of Audix's D Series application-specific systems is attractive. First, there's ease of use: rather than endlessly moving mics around and tweaking EQ to get the appropriate sound out of an all-purpose mic, application-specific mics require little or no EQ. Second, focusing the applications means that the mic can be optimized to perform better on its intended instrument than a general-purpose mic and can also lower the cost of the mic while maintaining performance. This is especially the case for kick and bass mics. Diaphragms can be made differently than conventional dynamic mics, thereby greatly extending low-frequency response and lifespan. Features ? D1 Microphone Features: The D1 Requires little Or No Eq and provides Great Results When Close Micing Techniques Are Employed.

Gigasonic

The Oxford Transient Modulator plug-in for Digidesign's Pro Tools TDM systems is an application that allows the dynamic level of signals to be modified by manipulating the transients in the program material over time. The effect is to bring transient events in the program forwards, or push them into to the background - the attacks of instruments can be accentuated or softened depending on the settings of the plug-in. The application was developed to address the common situation where there is a need to selectively tighten up percussive instruments or soften the unwanted percussive effects of acoustic instruments. This process is easily achieved with the Oxford Transient Modulator because its purpose-designed adaptive processing acts on differential information in the program. Meaning, the overall long-term program level is minimally affected and sensitivity to control parameters is drastically reduced. The HD version includes RTAS and Audiosuite formats in addition to the TDM version. Features ? Increase overall modulation potential by the reduction of very short peaks Adaptive processing acts on differential information in program material Radically change the dynamics of instruments Accenuate or flatten attacks and transients Increase or reduce the effects of ambience Product rounded and dynamic percussive effects

As the follow-up to the best selling Spider series, Spider II embraces the same style but delivers much more. Spider II features 12 unique amp models made from combining the sounds of some of the greatest amps in history and places them all in one mean package. Spider II also features an impressive array of effects (7 different effect types, 3 simultaneous) including Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo, Digital Delay, Tape Echo, and Sweep Echo. All effects can be easily tweaked using Smart FX, and delay times can be adjusted using Tap Tempo. Other features include a front panel tuner, Spring or Room Reverb, and a headphone out. All models include custom Celestion speakers. Finally an amp that gives you insane tone and power at a new lower price. The Spider II 112 is a 75-watt (mono) amp with 1x12 speaker. Smart Control FX Great amp tone is only part of a great guitar sound. Effect processing - whether it's stomp boxes or rack gear- is also a big part of the story. Your Spider II packs the power of several of these tone shapers in its Smart Control FX section. The delay knob gives you a trio of delay effect choices: a standard delay, tape echo, and a sweep echo. The modulation effect knob lets you choose between chorus/flange, phaser, and tremolo, and for each of these effects you can choose anything from a subtle hint of processing to total tone-mangling overkill. While turning the knob, Spider II adjusts all the individual aspects of the effect automatically to give you the range of sounds you're looking for, without having to mess with multiple knobs and switches to get your tone. So you can spend your time making music instead. Tap Button 'extra' Functions The Tap Tempo button, in addition to setting the speed of your delay effects, also lets you access a few extra Spider II features: a Tuner, Distortion Boost and a built-in Noise Gate (the tuner and the boost are also accessible via the optional FBV Shortboard). When you hold down the Tap Tempo button, you can use some of Spider II's knobs to access these extra features. Tuner Mode Press and hold the TAP button or TAP footswitch for 3 seconds or more and and you get instant digital tuner. The volume is muted during tuning so you won't here anything coming out of the amp. Press any button to exit Tuner Mode. If there is no FBV Shortboard connected, the LEDs on the front panel of the Spider II will work as the tuner display. The Amp Model LEDs correspond to the following strings on the guitar: Clean = Low E string Twang = A string Blues = D string Crunch = G string Metal = B string Insane = High E string The Channel memory LEDs indicate when the string you are playing is in tune. Channel B and C should both light GREEN when the sting is in tune. If channel A's LED is lit then the sting is flat. If channel A's LED is lit then the string is sharp. Distortion Boost Press and hold the Tap button as you turn the Drive knob up past twelve o'clock. As you do this, Spider II's Channel A LED comes on. This gives the kind of extra 'dirt' that you'd expect from a Distortion pedal with the distortion control set low and the output control set high. It boosts your guitar signal before it reaches the Amp Model, so that you hit the model harder and get a more distorted sound. Enabling this is the same as kicking on Stomp on the FBV Shortboard. Noise Gate Press and hold Tap as you turn the Reverb knob up past twelve o'clock, and you turn on a built-in Noise Gate, which helps to cut down on hiss and noise.

As the follow-up to the best selling Spider series, Spider II embraces the same style but delivers much more. Spider II features 12 unique amp models made from combining the sounds of some of the greatest amps in history and places them all in one mean package. Spider II also features an impressive array of effects (7 different effect types, 3 simultaneous) including Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo, Digital Delay, Tape Echo, and Sweep Echo. All effects can be easily tweaked using Smart FX, and delay times can be adjusted using Tap Tempo. Other features include a front panel tuner, Spring or Room Reverb, and a headphone out. All models include custom Celestion speakers. Finally an amp that gives you insane tone and power at a new lower price. The Spider II 210 is a 150-watt stereo amp with two 10 in. speakers. Features ? 12 amp models that deliver a complete range from Clean to Insane 7 Smart Control effects (up to 3 simultaneous) including Tape Echo, standard Delay, Sweep Echo (all w/Tap Tempo), Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo and Reverb 4 User-programmable channels Built-in front panel Tuner Headphone/Direct Out for practice or recording Enough power to kill pesky Chupacabras and Evil Payasos Smart Control FX Great amp tone is only part of a great guitar sound. Effect processing-whether it's stomp boxes or rack gear - is also a big part of the story. Your Spider II packs the power of several of these tone shapers in its Smart Control FX section. The delay knob gives you a trio of delay effect choices: a standard delay, tape echo, and a sweep echo. The modulation effect knob lets you choose between chorus/flange, phaser, and tremolo, and for each of these effects you can choose anything from a subtle hint of processing to total tone-mangling overkill. While turning the knob, Spider II adjusts all the individual aspects of the effect automatically to give you the range of sounds you're looking for, without having to mess with multiple knobs and switches to get your tone. So you can spend your time making music instead. Tap Button 'extra' Functions The Tap Tempo button, in addition to setting the speed of your delay effects, also lets you access a few extra Spider II features: a Tuner, Distortion Boost and a built-in Noise Gate (the tuner and the boost are also accessible via the optional FBV Shortboard). When you hold down the Tap Tempo button, you can use some of Spider II's knobs to access these extra features. Tuner Mode Press and hold the TAP button or TAP footswitch for 3 seconds or more and and you get instant digital tuner. The volume is muted during tuning so you won't hear anything coming out of the amp. Press any button to exit Tuner Mode. If there is no FBV Shortboard connected, the LEDs on the front panel of the Spider II will work as the tuner display. The Amp Model LEDs correspond to the following strings on the guitar: Clean = Low E string Twang = A string Blues = D string Crunch = G string Metal = B string Insane = High E string The Channel memory LEDs indicate when the string you are playing is in tune. Channel B and C should both light GREEN when the sting is in tune. If channel A' LED is lit then the sting is flat. If channel D' LED is lit then the string is sharp. Distortion Boost Press and hold the Tap button as you turn the Drive knob up past twelve o'clock. As you do this, Spider II's Channel A LED comes on. This gives the kind of extra 'dirt' that you're expect from a Distortion pedal with the distortion control set low and the output control set high. It boosts your guitar signal before it reaches the Amp Model, so that you hit the model harder and get a more distorted sound. Enabling this is the same as kicking on Stomp on the FBV Shortboard. Noise Gate Press and hold Tap as you turn the Reverb knob up past twelve o'clock, and you turn on a built-in Noise Gate, which helps to cut down on hiss and noise. When you do this, the Channel D LED comes on to indicate that the Gate is on. Special Hidden Functions When you select an Amp Model, Spider II automatically sets its tone controls and effects to match that Amp Model.

Gigasonic

TAMPA is a professional microphone/instrument preamp unlike any other. That's because our design team set out to discover just why expensive tube technology sounds so good, and devise a way to land that sound at affordable solid state prices. The result is far beyond tube modeling. It's a whole new technology called Temporal Harmonic Alignment? TAMPA even has a built-in world-class dual optical servo compressor offering low noise and distortion, consistent accuracy and exceptional transparency. You also get a digital output for driving your digital recording gear directly without degradation. Temporal Harmonic Alignment —the secret behind the sound In natural sound sources such as strings, drum heads and vocal chords, harmonics share a characteristic temporal (phase) relationship to the fundamental. Our ears exhibit the same qualities. Solid state electronics induce distortion in the form of additional harmonics that are out of phase with the original source. Tube-based devices strike the ear as having such a “warm?sound because the added harmonics have the same temporal relationship as natural mechanisms (although predominantly in the midrange). This results in a sweet spot that makes vocals, guitars and other midrange-rich content sound especially pleasing. TAMPA's revolutionary new Temporal Harmonic Alignment technology produces that same phase relationship found in both tubes and nature. And unlike tubes, TAMPA's sweet spot spans the full spectrum of your sound. Dual optical servo compressor TAMPA also includes a dual optical servo compressor that is worth the price alone. Three fundamental problems plague engineers in designing compressors—distortion, noise and accuracy. The VCA technology used in inexpensive compressors exhibits less than professional specs on all three counts. Simple optical servo technology is much more quiet and accurate, yet has its own issues with distortion. The dual optical servo technology we use in TAMPA yields low noise, consistent accuracy, low distortion and exceptional transparency—and it comes built-in to a great mic preamp.

M-Audio Studiophile SBX Subwoofer Bass Management

9900-40790-00
Gigasonic

While M-Audio's BX8s and BX5s offer as much bass response as you'll find in any monitors of similar size, the addition of an SBX subwoofer puts 120 watts behind those low frequencies that you can really feel. In fact, so many consumers have subwoofers that you're not really mixing accurately without having a sub yourself. M-Audio's unique Stereo Bass Management System splits the signal at the variable crossover frequency, routing everything below to the sub and everything above to the satellites. The SBX is so affordable that it also makes an excellent companion to other monitors-from stereo to full surround setups. About Stereo Bass Management When subwoofers are added to many systems, all frequencies are routed to both the main monitors and the sub. The sub typically has a low-pass filter to roll off the highs (as do the BX8s and BX5s). The problem is that both the main monitors and the sub are still trying to put out the same low frequencies, thereby compromising fidelity. Enter our Stereo Bass Management System. The SBX accommodates the stereo outputs from your mixer, and your main monitors then connect to outputs on the sub as satellites. The SBX's internal crossover network splits the signal at a user-defined crossover frequency (50-180Hz), routing everything below it to the internal sub and everything above it to the satellites. This significantly improves fidelity because the components aren't tripping over each other to reproduce the same frequency-and each only has to deliver frequencies to which it is ideally suited.

The Oxford Transient Modulator plug-in for tc electronic's PowerCore processors is an application that allows the dynamic level of signals to be modified by manipulating the transients in the program material over time. The effect is to bring transient events in the program forwards, or push them into to the background - the attacks of instruments can be accentuated or softened depending on the settings of the plug-in. The application was developed to address the common situation where there is a need to selectively tighten up percussive instruments or soften the unwanted percussive effects of acoustic instruments. This process is easily achieved with the Oxford Transient Modulator because its purpose-designed adaptive processing acts on differential information in the program. Meaning, the overall long-term program level is minimally affected and sensitivity to control parameters is drastically reduced. The PowerCore version includes VST and Audio Units formats of the plug-in that require PowerCore DSP to function. Features ? Increase overall modulation potential by the reduction of very short peaks Adaptive processing acts on differential information in program material Radically change the dynamics of instruments Accentuate or flatten attacks and transients Increase or reduce the effects of ambience Product rounded and dynamic percussive effects

Sony UTX-H1 66/68 Microphone Transmitter

Gigasonic

The UWP series handheld microphone contains a uni-directional microphone capsule. The UTX-H1 66/68 operates on UHF TV channels 66,67,68 and 69. This handheld microphone is ideally suited for presentation and PA applications. PLL synthesized system Key to achieving stable transmission and reception is the use of a stable carrier signal to avoid interference with other frequency channels and to allow the selection of a preferred channel from multiple frequencies. The UWP series achieves this by using a UHF PLL (Phase Locked Loop) frequency synthesized system, which provides the use of accurate carrier signal frequencies. This system is used in both the transmitter and tuners, so that a stable carrier is generated at the transmitter and accurately tuned in at the tuner. This PLL-controlled system provides highly stable , user-selectable frequencies in increments of 125 kHz Space diversity reception system In general, wireless microphone transmission systems can be subject to reception interruptions (signal dropout), but the UWP series reduces this to a minimum. By utilizing a space diversity reception system, it achieves stable transmission by using dual-antenna inputs/reception circuits that receive signals over two different paths and automatically selecting the stronger RF signal for output. The space diversity reception system is adopted in all UWP tuners. In addition, the antennas of the portable and 1/2 rack size tuners each allow for angle adjustments, which helps to further eliminate signal drop out. Tone squelch circuitry When operating a wireless microphone system, it is essential that the tuner not pick up carrier signals transmitted from other systems. In order to avoid this, the UWP series transmitters transmit a 32 kHz pilot-tone signal along with the audio signal. The squelch circuit of the UWP series tuners recognizes this tone signal, and will output the audio signal only when this tone signal is received. This function virtually prevents the output of unwanted signals or noise from other signal transmissions in the air, as well as the RF noise and popping noise that occur when the transmitter is powered on or off Pre-programmed operating frequencies The transmitters and tuners included in the UWP series incorporate pre-programmed frequencies that meet the wireless-communications regulations of each country. The UWP series operates within the following frequency ranges: (62/64) 758 MHz to 782 MHz OR (66/68) 782 MHz to 806 MHz (each model provides 188 selectable frequencies) Simultaneous multi-channel operation The UWP series allows simultaneous operation of up to 16 wireless microphones. Optimum combinations of practically tested, intermodulation-free frequencies are stored in the UWP tuners.

Sony UTX-H1 62/64 Microphone Transmitter

Gigasonic

The UWP series handheld microphone contains a uni-directional microphone capsule. The UTX-H1 62/64 operates on UHF TV channels 62,63,64 and 65. This handheld microphone is ideally suited for presentation and PA applications. PLL synthesized system Key to achieving stable transmission and reception is the use of a stable carrier signal to avoid interference with other frequency channels and to allow the selection of a preferred channel from multiple frequencies. The UWP series achieves this by using a UHF PLL (Phase Locked Loop) frequency synthesized system, which provides the use of accurate carrier signal frequencies. This system is used in both the transmitter and tuners, so that a stable carrier is generated at the transmitter and accurately tuned in at the tuner. This PLL-controlled system provides highly stable , user-selectable frequencies in increments of 125 kHz Space diversity reception system In general, wireless microphone transmission systems can be subject to reception interruptions (signal dropout), but the UWP series reduces this to a minimum. By utilizing a space diversity reception system, it achieves stable transmission by using dual-antenna inputs/reception circuits that receive signals over two different paths and automatically selecting the stronger RF signal for output. The space diversity reception system is adopted in all UWP tuners. In addition, the antennas of the portable and 1/2 rack size tuners each allow for angle adjustments, which helps to further eliminate signal drop out. Tone squelch circuitry When operating a wireless microphone system, it is essential that the tuner not pick up carrier signals transmitted from other systems. In order to avoid this, the UWP series transmitters transmit a 32 kHz pilot-tone signal along with the audio signal. The squelch circuit of the UWP series tuners recognizes this tone signal, and will output the audio signal only when this tone signal is received. This function virtually prevents the output of unwanted signals or noise from other signal transmissions in the air, as well as the RF noise and popping noise that occur when the transmitter is powered on or off Pre-programmed operating frequencies The transmitters and tuners included in the UWP series incorporate pre-programmed frequencies that meet the wireless-communications regulations of each country. The UWP series operates within the following frequency ranges: (62/64) 758 MHz to 782 MHz OR (66/68) 782 MHz to 806 MHz (each model provides 188 selectable frequencies) Simultaneous multi-channel operation The UWP series allows simultaneous operation of up to 16 wireless microphones. Optimum combinations of practically tested, intermodulation-free frequencies are stored in the UWP tuners. By using the pre-programmed frequency groups, users can easily choose intermodulation-free frequencies for the transmitters and tuners, simplifying the task of system setup. Features ? Internal antenna design Attenuator function allows adjustment of the audio-input level to suit each user's voice Selectable RF output level: 5 mW (suitable for simultaneous multichannel operation) or 30 mW (for long distance transmission) 6 hours of continuous operation with two AA-size alkaline batteries LCD screen provides extensive set up information Specifications ?

Spider II is the only amp designed from the ground up to drown out the voices inside your head. Packed with 12 insane amp models and 7 psychotic effects, Spider II has enough power to ward off pesky chupacabras and the occasional Evil Payaso. Smart Control FX Great amp tone is only part of a great guitar sound. Effect processing -whether it's stomp boxes or rack gear -is also a big part of the story. Spider II packs the power of several of these tone shapers in its Smart Control FX section. The delay knob gives you a trio of delay effect choices: a standard delay, tape echo, and a sweep echo. The modulation effect knob lets you choose between chorus/flange, phaser, and tremolo, and for each of these effects you can choose anything from a subtle hint of processing to total tone-mangling overkill. While turning the knob, Spider II adjusts all the individual aspects of the effect automatically to give you the range of sounds you're looking for, without having to mess with multiple knobs and switches to get your tone. So you can spend your time making music instead. Effects Great amp tone is only part of a killer tone. Spider II packs several powerful tone shaping effects. The Modulation knob gives you your choice of Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, or Tremolo. Grab the Delay knob and you get your choice of classic Tape Echo, standard Delay, and Sweep Echo. There's even a dedicated Reverb. Features ? 75 Watt Mono 1x12 Combo 12 amp models that deliver a complete range from Clean to Insane 7 Smart Control effects (up to 3 simultaneous) including Tape Echo, standard Delay, Sweep Echo (all w/Tap Tempo), Chorus/Flanger, Phaser, Tremolo and Reverb 4 User-programmable channels Built-in front panel Tuner Headphone/Direct Out for practice or recording Specifications ? Amp Models Clean: This amp model gives you crisp, amazing clean tones all the way to warm jazz tones. Clean 2: This amp model was developed to emulate late '60s and early '70s clean tones. Twang: This amp model is based on* our analysis of mid '60s Fender amps. Twang "red" has that classic glassy tone with some snap and bite. Twang 2: We based this model on* a number of different vintage Fender tweed amps like a '53 Deluxe and a '58 Bassman. Add a bit of Reverb and some Slap Echo and you'll have swingin' Rockabilly tone. Blues: This amp model slides between gritty, swamp infected cleans to syrupy drive tones. Blues 2: This amp model accurately captures that early British pop/rock tone. Top of the pops man! Crunch: This model is based on* a '68 Marshall "Plexi" 50-watt. Crunch "red" gives you a wide range of tones even at its highest gain settings. Crunch 2: We based this model on* a '68 Marshall "Plexi" 100-watt with a few added extras. We threw in the Variac "brown sound" trick on top of jumping the input channels! Now you're on fire! Metal: This monster truck of tone delivers a tight bottom-end that's big, powerful, and fast. Use this amp model to get a punch, high-gain metal sound. Metal 2: This amp model was created to be an aggressive high-gain amp model with a unique Mid control that will sweep through a huge tonal spectrum. Insane: We combined the most high-gain earth-shaking tone we could muster, tossed in a sub-octave fuzz, and threw in a phase shifter on top just for good measure. The result: the craziest model you've ever heard, producing screaming, screeching highs and lows to rock your core. Play a lick with single notes and listen as the note is twisted into an alternate dimension. Use with extreme caution. Insane 2: Our goal with Insane was to provide you with as much distortion as possible short of complete meltdown. Crank up the Drive control and prepare to dominate.

The PCR-M80 is a revised version of the popular PCR-80 MIDI Keyboard controller. Like the PCR-80, the PCR-M80 offers direct connection to the computer through USB, plus 61 keys, 27 assignable MIDI controllers, a software editor, MIDI input and output, and sustain and expression pedal connections. Advancement the PCR-M80 has over the PCR-80: the addition of velocity curves, a switchable MIDI interface, and a new key-action that offers less mechanical noise and a consistent, playable feel. Features ? Newly developed keyboard mechanism comfort to MI keyboards for musicians High quality improved keyboard assembly --- ultra-low mechanical noise 12 velocity curve selections for delicate musical nuance More comfortable reactions in the new keys Switchable MIDI Interface Cool, black (titanium dark gray) body color As a real musical instrument, not as a computer peripheral 61 Velocity-sensitive keys High Quality Keyboard Mechanism 12 Velocity Curves and Fixed Velocity Mode 27 Fully-assignable Controls: 8 Knobs, 8 Sliders, 9 Switches, and 2 Pedal Ports Rubber-coated Pitch Bend/Modulation Lever 1 GM2 and 15 User Memory Set LocationsFPT Low-latency MIDI Transmission PCR Editor Software USB Powered or AC Adaptor (Included) MIDI IN/OUT Ports Sustain and Expression Pedal Ports V-LINK High Quality Mechanism for the Serious Player With a newly designed key mechanism -- taken from Roland's 30 years of synthesizer development -- players can control a wide dynamic range with incredible subtlety. The re-designed key assemblies have a rounded shape for better reaction to the player’s touch and more comfortable glissando, plus changes have been made to reduce the already low mechanical noise of the PCR-80 and eliminate vertical shake on the key strokes. The newly developed pitch bend and modulation design offers you easier and more expressive control. All these features add up to a keyboard that even the most discerning player can appreciate. Comprehensive Connectivity for Maximizing Player's Performance Connect everything with one USB cable. Since the power is supplied from the computer, no AC adaptor is needed. The same USB connection provides MIDI IN and OUT ports that allow the keyboard to function as a MIDI interface to other external MIDI devices. It addition to this, all the information from keys and controllers can be sent through the MIDI OUT port so that you can control both software and external MIDI devices at the same time (MIDI Interface mode = OFF). With the interface mode turned on, the PCR-M80/M50/M30 can control multiple applications at the same time. Control your DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) and software synthesizer at the same time. The MIDI processing in the PCRM80/ M50/M30 is compatible with FPT (Fast Processing Technology). This technology doesn't depend on music application you are using. It provides stable, high speed, low latency, and low jitter MIDI transmission. 27 Individual Fully-assignable Controllers The PCR-M80/M50/M30 provides you with 8 knobs, 8 sliders, 9 buttons, and 2 pedal ports. These controllers can be assigned to any MIDI message, Control Change (CC), RPN, NRPN, System Exclusive and more. You get to choose what parameters to control in your MIDI hardware and software to create the perfect playing environment. 12 Selectable Velocity Curve Combinations Pick from 12 velocity curves to precisely match your playing style. As the PCRM80/M50/M30 has 4 different velocity curves and 3 kinds of sensitivity (Light, Medium, and Heavy), the player can find the combination that perfectly suits them and can produce the precise MIDI performance and programming of a true professional. In addition a Fixed Velocity Mode is provided where the PCR-M80/M50/M30 always outputs a fixed velocity (from 1 to 127) providing practical input for drum and percussion programming in step recording. PCR Editor software and Downloadable Memory Sets (Control Maps) on the web The PCR series keyboards work with all major music applications, and are equipped with user memory locations to store up to 15 different control maps. PCR Editor software for use with the Edirol PCR Keyboard Series is included. The PCR Editor allows for extensive and convenient control of the PCR keyboards from a PC or Mac. The PCR Editor is designed to assist in creating control maps for the PCR and allow users to quickly and easily make assignments to any of the 27 assignable controls. This powerful software also allows the user to copy system exclusive messages for the PCR into a sequence so the controls can be mapped or changed during a sequence. In addition to offering easy implementation of different MIDI messages, the PCR Editor also allows the user to specify minimum and maximum values for each control.

Laptops have become powerful enough for even ambitious hard disk recording in recent times. Up to now, a powerful interface was missing though. USB is neither presents the necessary bandwidth, nor the preferred compatibility. Available PCMCIA solutions at the moment are nearly always designed as 16 bit PC Card and therefore only make use of the ISA bus. Hi-tech switching power supply facility is also fabricated. The CardBus from RME delivers the same basic recitation that you would expect to find with a high-quality PCI card on a desktop computer - except it's for your laptop! Performance equals that of a desktop computer with notebook attached with the transfer rate ranging up to 130 MB/s in both directions. The card is also 100% Plug & Play compatible under Windows and MacOS, and being able to share interrupts. The connection between CardBus card and I/O box is established using ordinary firewire cable (closed LAN to IEEE 1394.) The data transfer does not use Firewire protocol, but RME's own proprietary bus protocol. The supplied cable is 4.5 m (15 ft) long; a cable length up to 10 m (33 ft) has been successfully tested. A specially designed Repeater can be used to reach cable lengths of up to 20 m (66 ft). The CardBus card does not provide power to the attached I/O-box.

The 70-watt bi-amped power and expertly tuned crossovers round out an incredible sounding pair of reference monitors with a footprint small enough to fit just about anywhere. M-Audio's new BX5a employs Kevlar for low-frequency driver construction. The same material used in bulletproof vests, Kevlar's high resilience makes it ideal for use in speaker cones -- although it is typically reserved for monitors with higher price tags than the BX5a . Needless to say, Kevlar represents a significant improvement over the polypropylene and paper used in most monitors for this price. Active monitors have a distinct advantage over unpowered monitors, in that the built-in power amps are designed specifically to work with the drivers and crossovers in a tuned system. Bi-amplification further refines the concept by dedicating separate power amps to the highs and lows. Combined with a finely tuned crossover, this design insures that both the high -- and low-frequency drivers are asked to deliver only the frequencies they are more efficient at reproducing. Unchecked, the electromagnetic waves emanating from your speakers can wreak havoc with your computer's video monitor or a nearby TV. The BX 5a is magnetically shielded so that all of your electronic equipment can coexist on your desktop without interference.
