It can be used by itself to provide the commentary facilities alongside an OB truck for small events or multiple Paradiso Lites can be used at large events that require Worldwide broadcast coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAudio links between the Paradiso and other equipment are by Dante (AES67 compliant) complete with redundant copper links. Analogue I\/O and AES3 I\/O are also provided directly from the unit for local connections and \/ or another layer of redundancy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Paradiso Lite has been designed to be intuitive \u0026amp; easy to use for Commentators who would rather be talking about the game than working out how the equipment works, and is also built to our exacting rugged \u0026amp; robust standard to make it a reliable piece of broadcast equipment for the busy engineer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e8 off Audio Volume Controls for Each Commentators with Pan\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the top panel are 24 rotary headphone volume encoders. Internally they are connected to a DSP matrix and the sources can be set depending upon your preference.\u003cbr\u003eAt the top of the front panel on the right hand side is a row of clear bright yellow LEDs. When an encoder is turned to adjust the volume, this row of LEDs illuminate to show the current position of that encoder. When the encoder is used to adjust the pan of the source then this row of LEDs illuminate with a single LED indicating the current panned position. \u003cbr\u003eTurning the encoder adjusts the volume, and simultaneously pressing down and turning the encoder adjusts the pan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePeak Programme Meter (PPM)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe source of the PPM can be customised but is normally the outgoing programme mix. When a front panel gain control is adjusted the PPM automatically shows just the level from that input.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRobust Mic on and Talkback Buttons\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are 4 off round bright illuminated talkback buttons and 1 large square illuminated mic on button for each of the 3 commentators. The audio circuits that the outputs of these switches are routed to can be fully configured. The operation of these switches (momentary, latching etc) and the interaction of these switches (i.e. pressing a talkback switch mutes the main mic) can be fully configured by the windows 11 app.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAudio Inputs\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere are 3 balanced audio inputs one for each commentator. Each of these inputs can be selected to accept a Microphone or Line level source. 48V phantom power can be turned on if in microphone mode.\u003cbr\u003eA very high quality remote controlled microphone amplifier has been used followed by an exceptional analogue to digital converter to make the audio quality the best that it can possibly be.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGain Control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe gain control is a rotary encoder with a clear plastic shaft. When the gain control is operated the front panel PPM automatically solos the source to allow unambiguous gain settings. The clear plastic shaft has an internal red LED that is illuminated if an input level is close to clipping, thus allowing quick diagnostics of a gain level that has been set too high.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIntelligent Headphone Output Circuits \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur unique intelligent headphone output circuits automatically adjust the output level to suit both high and low impedance headphones. Traditional broadcast high impedance headphones require a large output level to produce enough volume in the headphones, whereas low impedance headphones require much less level to produce a proportional output level. This means that whatever headphones you connect to the Paradiso you’ll have enough audio output for even the loudest of environments. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlus our headphone amplifiers can accept mono as well as stereo headphones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAux In\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eIn addition to the three commentators' inputs there is a 4th ‘Auxiliary’ Input. This is provided on a stereo 3.5mm jack socket and is suitable for connection to the outputs of domestic recording devices such as a mobile phone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRedundant Powering Options\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Pardiso can be powered from any of 4 different sources:\u003cbr\u003e1) Wide range Mains Input (suitable fo Worlwide use)\u003cbr\u003e2) PoE on the Primary CAT5 Network link\u003cbr\u003e3) PoE on the Secondary CAT5 Network link\u003cbr\u003e4) External 12V DC\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrimary \u0026amp; Secondary Copper Network Connections with PoE\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eTwo CAT6 connections on Neutrik Ethercons (that accept standard networking cables) are provided to allow copper connections to local network switches to carry the Dante \/ AES67 audio. Two connections are fitted to allow redundant circuits to be used if required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBoth these connectors can accept a PoE power source for providing the power to the Paradiso Lite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAnalogue Inputs \u0026amp; Outputs\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eFive analogue inputs and outputs are provided for backup or local I\/O purposes. These circuits are routed internally via the DSP and therefore can be routed to and from any location including Dante circuits required.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAES \u0026amp; GPIO\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eA D9 socket provides 4 general purpose input \/ outputs (GPIO) for connection to red lights, TB systems or external switches.  The same D9 socket also has an AES3 input \u0026amp; output circuit for further audio connectivity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeatures\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eComprehensive commentary unit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for 3 commentators on 1 programme or 3 separate programmes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGlitch free redundant Dante network audio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo copper network interfaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMultiple power sources (PoE x 2), Mains \u0026amp; DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBest microphone amplifiers available\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLocal analogue and AES3 inputs \u0026amp; outputs for extra redundancy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes our much revered Referee compressor\/ limiter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWindows 11 app for remote control \u0026amp; setup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Glensound","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45107491635279,"sku":"PARADISO LITE","price":7035.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0054\/9466\/9382\/files\/timthumb_7601ce5d-b7fc-4b40-8911-e227e9dc2ce8.jpg?v=1776458243","url":"https:\/\/shop.musicredone.com\/products\/glensound-paradiso-lite-dante-aes67-commentators-box","provider":"RedOne Music Canada","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
