the modules
input EQ
Versatile input options:
As the name suggests, the Airlab-DT triple input module combines a Mic input with two stereo line inputs.
USB module:
When you choose the USB module, the line A|B switch and its associated LED are not active anymore. There is only a choice between MIC and USB.
Digital module:
In the case of a digital Module, the line inputs become AES-3 in/out, and Line B is also not active anymore. There is only a choice between MIC and AES-3.
Mic gain control:
Apart from the gain control, we have built in a front panel accessible trimmer to determine the mic gain range.
Additional features:
A low-cut filter can be activated by a jumper on the PCB. The mic input is located at the back of the console on female XLR connectors.
The Airlab-DT is equipped with linear 100mm faders controlling high-quality "THAT" VCA's, another high-end industry standard.
Flexible start functionality:
Start can be activated with the fader or ON switch, depending on which is activated first. Start can be software configured so that switching is from line A or line B.
Intelligent cue control:
Similarly, the Cue switch is under software control, avoiding impossible settings.
telco
Versatile telco module:
The Airlab-DT frame has the possibility to be loaded with up to 16 Telco modules, providing unmatched communication flexibility.
