Studio Technologies – Model 5418 Mic/Line Interface

Product Information

The Model 5418 Mic/Line Interface provides a simple yet high-performance means of interfacing analog signals with applications that utilize Dante® audio-over-Ethernet media networking technology.

The Model 5418 Mic/Line Interface provides a simple yet high-performance means of interfacing analog signals with applications that utilize Dante® audio-over-Ethernet media networking technology. Eight analog microphone- or line-level sources can be connected to the unit and then output in the digital domain by way of a Dante interface. Eight digital audio signals, which arrive by way of Dante, are converted to analog and then output as balanced line-level signals. Configuration choices also allow other audio signals to be selected as the sources for the analog output channels. A monitor section allows the input and output signals to be selectively observed using meters and a headphone output.

Focusrite – ISA 428 Mk II

ISA 428 MkII incorporates four of Focusrite's renowned mic pres in a simple-to-operate 2U enclosure, placing four mic preamps, instrument inputs and line ins at your fingertips. The original Focusrite mic pre was designed to suit the microphones of the time; today's model makes one small change, adding three additional input impedances to the classic ISA 110 setting, allowing you to match any microphone, old or new, and access a wide range of sounds, from the character and warmth of a vintage mic to the clear transparency of a modern design.

Each mic pre has the option of mic, line or the front-panel instrument input, with variable input impedance to ensure you are getting the best performance from the source. Up to 60dB of gain is available on the four-position rotary and gain range switches, with a further +20dB of continuously variable trim, meaning a huge 80dB of gain is available should it be required. The high-pass filter features variable cut-off frequency between 16 and 420Hz. An array of 6-segment LED meters show peak signal level for the four mic pres, in addition to the four direct inputs to the optional A-D card. Switchable rear-panel insert points allow the use of inline processors such as compression.
