S2-CML
S2 Mic/Line channel with EQ.

The Mic/Line Input channel is a mono input with a button switch to select either Mic or Mono Line. For the Mic input, phantom power at +48V can be configured. The Mic input has a jumper selectable high pass filter to remove low frequency rumbles. If the Mic input is used for the presenter's mic it can also become the talkback mic. The talkback function will be retained when the channel input is switched to Line. Equalisation is fitted as standard on this channel and is enabled by the EQ button, providing 10dB cut and boost at HF (6.5kHz) and LF (100Hz).

S2-CMM
S2 Mic/Mic channel with EQ.

The Mic/Mic Input channel is a dual mono microphone input with a button switch to select either Mic 1 or Mic 2. Each Mic input has jumper settable phantom power available at +48V and a high pass filter to remove low frequency rumbles. When enabled, the LF response of the microphone is rolled off at 125kHz, 6dB per octave. If the Mic input is used for the presenter's mic it can also become the talkback mic. Equalisation is fitted as standard on this channel and is enabled by the EQ button, providing 10dB cut and boost at HF (6.5kHz) and LF (100Hz).

S2-CS
S2 Dual stereo channel

The Dual Stereo Line channel has two balanced stereo inputs on Neutrik XLR connectors. The INP 1/INP 2 button selects which input is routed through the channel. The button is illuminated in red to indicate when Input 2 is selected. The operation of the button is inhibited when the channel is "live". There are separate logic remote output controls for both of the two inputs providing start/stop functions by fader, or ON button. Remotes, etc, are triggered when the fader is up and the channel ON button shows green. The start function can be configured to be either momentary (500mS) or latched for each input. The remote outputs on the 9 way D type plug are fed from NPN opto-isolators.

S2-CSE

S2-CSG
S2 Stereo and gram channel

This channel is the Dual Stereo Line channel fitted with an RIAA input amplifier on the second input. The balanced stereo line input is on Neutrik XLR connectors and the unbalanced RIAA stereo input on phonos. The channel is used for connecting a turntable or record deck. The GRAM inputs have RIAA equalisation suitable for magnetic pick-up cartridges. There are separate logic remote output controls for both of the two inputs providing start/stop functions by fader, or ON button. Remotes, etc, are triggered when the fader is up and the channel ON button shows green. The start function can be configured to be either momentary (500mS) or latched for each input. The remote outputs on the 9 way D type plug are fed from NPN opto-isolators.

S2-CDS
S2 Digital dual stereo channel

The Digital Dual Stereo channel has two 24-bit 96kHz digital inputs with an INP 1/INP 2 button switch to select between them. The button is illuminated in red to indicate when Input 2 is selected. The operation of the button is inhibited when the channel is "live". Either input can be configured to be balanced AES/EBU on standard XLR, or S/PDIF on phono sockets, selected by internal jumpers. The digital signals are converted to analogue and from this point the channel functions are the same as the S2-CS Dual Stereo Line channel with the addition that when the ON button flashes green, it means that there is no valid digital input.

S2-CDSE
S2 Digital dual stereo channel with EQ.

S2-C6SS
S2 6 way stereo source select channel with EQ.

The 6 Way Stereo Line Source Select channel has 6 balanced stereo inputs on a 25 way D-type connector selectable by a 6 way mechanical interlocking switch bank, numbered 1 - 6. A depressed button indicates the selected input. The switch bank also controls 6 sets of remote outputs allowing each source to have a set of start/stop remotes. The remote starts can be set as momentary or latching. The channel is fitted with EQ as standard and other functions are similar to the S2-CSE Dual Stereo channel with EQ.

S2-CT
S2 Telco channel with EQ.

The Telco Input channel controls the connection to a telephone balance unit (or hybrid). It has one balanced line level mono input on Neutrik XLR, and one balanced line level cleanfeed output to return to the hybrid. Equalisation is fitted as standard and is enabled by the EQ button, providing 10dB cut and boost at HF (6.5kHz) and LF (100Hz). The EQ button places the equalisation in and out of the signal path and is illuminated yellow when the EQ is active.

S2-CSMM
S2 Stereo mix minus channel with EQ.

The Stereo Mix-Minus channel has one balanced stereo line level input and a balanced stereo mix-minus output, on XLR connectors. The channel is intended for use where a remote stereo source, such as another studio connected via ISDN, requires a stereo cleanfeed return. The cleanfeed is generated by the mix-minus method from either the PGM or AUD outputs, depending on the routing selection. Equalisation is fitted as standard on this channel and operates in the same was as on the S2-CDSE channel.
