The JDV Mk5 all-discrete Class-A active direct box is intended for bass and acoustic instruments — though useable with any source. The design has two switchable inputs, each with a volume control, signal presence/overload LEDs and variable high-pass filter. Input-A has a Drag load correction control to replicate the sound of a bass amp. A balanced TRS mic input lets the JDV to be used with an instrument-mounted condenser mic. Input-B has a load selector switch for passive basses or piezo pickups and a Blend control combines both inputs, while a Phazer control aligns the two for a natural sound. The XLR output offers direct or transformer isolated routings, as well as polarity reverse and ground lift switches. MAP: $449. AES Booth #470

XL2 Data Explorer from NTI Audio is a PC-based advanced noise analysis software application with a powerful data processor for easy and fast analysis of sound level measurement data. The software is designed to quickly analyze and report on large measurement datasets — ideal when applied to a long-term sound level measurement contract. Version 1.40 lets users define or change the audit interval after the measurement and will recalculate the equivalent values. Based on these audit intervals, users can add percentile levels to graphs and reports, greatly enhancing the analysis capabilities. Measurement data is written in plain text, which can be directly imported into spreadsheet programs such as Microsoft Excel.
