Saint Philip Goes Digital With Dual iLive Systems

RackTools 3.5, the free layout and specification software package that includes all products from Middle Atlantic, has been updated to save users time. The changes include new shapes for user-defined components and additional drawing export flexibility.

The DMI-8, an eight-channel version of the digital microphone interface, is now available from Neumann, which is designed to simplify setup for studio or live PA systems. The eight-channel version also offers AES 42 to EBU conversion, the ability to synchronize the mics without a sample rate converter, automatic word clock or AES 11 synchronization, an ability to handle sample rates from 44.1 kHz to 192 kHz and control and storage of the settings via Mac or PC. (The DMI-8 is pictured here with a Mac.)

Danley Sound Labs’ SH-64 is designed as a standalone system for applications requiring high-SPL and low distortion. Danley said the SH-64 incorporates nine drivers in a single horn enclosure. Comprising four 15-inch woofers, four 4-inch mid-frequency drivers and a single 1.4-inch high frequency driver in a new enclosure, Danley touts the SH-64’s fidelity, low-frequency pattern control and magnitude/phase response.

WorxAudio Technologies’ self-powered TrueLine Series X115-P bass extension system, compact enough to fit in with flown array clusters in fixed installations, has a single 15-inch high excursion transducer and is well suited to high-energy clubs, theme park effects, houses of worship, musical theater and other applications.

Hosa Technology introduces the Da-Cappo DA12 Hardwired Earset Microphone, designed for use where the interfacing wireless microphone system remains constant. The DA12 Hardwired Earset Microphone offers the same performance attributes of the original DA12, but without the worry about misplacing the cable and adaptor.

Astatic says its 1600VP is the first continuously-variable pattern condenser hanging microphone system with remote polar control and an anti-rotational positioning mount. The variable polar pattern with remote control allows the user to adjust the shape of the pick-up pattern to provide the best gain before feedback from a remote location using the mic cable.

Bag End’s double 12-inch subwoofer is available in both a passive installation version (Model D12-E-I) and a powered version (Model PD12-E-I) featuring Bag End’s built-in modular Minima One amplifier. These 12-inch subwoofers can be either installed or used as portable units.
