XTA DS800 8×32-Ch Mic/Line Distribution System
XTA DS800 8×32-Channel Microphone/Line Distribution System
The XTA DS800 Mic / Line Distribution System is a high quality active distribution / splitter unit containing eight channels of processing in 2U of rack space. Each channel features one actively balanced input and a total of four outputs, two of which are individually actively balanced and normally connected to Front Of House and Stage Monitor consoles. The two remaining outputs are transformer isolated and located on the front panel of the unit. These are typically used as broadcasting or recording feeds. A maximum of 50dB gain is available via the five position Gain switch. This allows sufficient gain to be applied to low level signals, such as dynamic microphones, to avoid the poor noise performance often associated with active mic splitters. Phantom power (48VDC) is provided, and is switchable to each input by selecting ‘Phantom Power’ on the front panel. The DS800 is designed to reduce system grounding problems; please refer to the ‘System Grounding’ section further on in this manual for more information.
