The
Model 45 Interface lets you connect 2-wire
full-duplex party-line intercom circuits to 4-wire audio
circuits, including matrix intercom systems and other
special-purpose audio configurations. Extended bandwidth,
excellent auto nulling, and transformer-coupled connections
contribute to highly intelligible audio that is free of
undesirable noise and artifacts. Audio level meters provide
confirmation of system performance during setup and operation.
The ˝-rack Model 45 is small and light, making it perfect for
portable and "throw-down" broadcast applications, but its high
performance makes it equally appropriate for permanent
installations in broadcast facilities, theme parks, and theaters.
The Model 45 is designed to operate stably with wet or dry intercom
circuits and can be connected directly to a wide variety of
dual-channel, party-line intercom devices including those from
Clear-Com® and the TW series from RTS®. It can be set up in
three different power configurations, making it highly flexible
in the field. First, the interface can be powered by the
connected 2-wire, party-line circuit. It can also be powered by an external 24-volt DC source. And finally, when connected to an external source the
unit can supply 30 volts DC to the 2-wire side of the interface.
In the latter case, there's no need for an external intercom
power supply, so overall system cost, weight, and space
requirements will be reduced.
The Model 45's sophisticated dual auto nulling function uses
microprocessor-controlled analog circuitry that adapts to the
electrical characteristics of the connected party-line circuit
and optimizes return-loss performance. The 4-wire portion of the
interface has a nominal level of +4 dBu and a maximum level of
+22 dBu, accommodating a wide variety of standard audio devices,
as well as audio-over-fiber transmission systems.

Mix Magazine Selects StudioComm 76DB/77B Surround Sound Monitoring System as Among Show's Best Products
The editors of Mix magazine singled out our all-digital
StudioComm 76DB/77B Surround Monitoring System as one of
their Top 10 Product Picks at NAB 2009, citing its
simple, effective control for monitoring 5.1 surround and
stereo mixes, as well as its ability to feed digital-input
loudspeakers directly, without the sonic degradation inherent
in extraneous stages of D/A or A/D conversion. Read about all
of their NAB picks here.
The Model 76DB Central Controller and Model 77B Control Console are
specifically designed for the needs of broadcast master control
and post-production applications. In addition to the features
of other StudioComm systems, the 76DB/77B pair supports Dolby®
E dialnorm metadata, and will automatically implement a gain
offset to maintain your selected reference level. The
StudioComm broadcast version also gives you more channel
configuration flexibility, allowing you to configure stereo
inputs as dual monaural sources. (The Model 76B Central
Controller gives you these same features with analog audio
outputs.) In addition, the 76DB Central Controller accepts a
variety of standard video sync signals, and can add up to 450
milliseconds of audio delay to compensate for processing delays
in the video path.
