With a range of one to 2000 milliseconds the system is versatile enough to support most networks and cameras. Should you desire the delay can also be set to manipulate the main outputs as well as the monitoring signal or a connected video encoder.
Clean and pristine audio inputs Across the top of the unit is a range of connections for sending both microphones and instrument inputs. The mixer has space for 8 microphones or 10 line inputs. It also features Bluetooth so you can stream music to the Model 12 – if your device doesnt use Bluetooth then you can use it to send a CD player or MP3 player through the RCA inputs. If sound quality is a concern the eight ultra HDDA mic preamps provide you with clean crisp and pristine audio tone with extremely low noise.
