Large-diaphragm stereo condenser microphone

Nevaton

MC48: The MC48 is a large, dual-diaphragm stereo condenser microphone with transformer-less class A electronics. It is well suited for applications in radio broadcasting as well as for live concerts and studio sound production. The microphone has low self-noise of less than 12dBA, and sound pressure level of 135dB. The two large 25mm diaphragms, placed one above the other, can be simultaneously rotated to provide variable stereo width from 50 degrees up to a maximum of 140 degrees and are capable of advanced, adjustable cardioids functions in mono mode. The ultra-thin and gold-coated diaphragms are made of 3-micron polyethylene-terephtalate film. All capsule components have passed a special artificial aging process to guarantee long-term stability. The internal construction is elastically mounted to attenuate vibrations and reduce handling noise. Additionally, the capsules are fixed on special dampers. A small LED indicates the presence of 48V phantom power and confirms front position. All input transistors pass a special selection process to guarantee minimal self-noise.

EAS watch on-site monitor

Cascade Technology Corporation

OSM: This on-site station monitor, is a 2RU device designed to monitor on-site received and broadcast EAS alerts. When the unit detects an EAS alert, the full FSK text are captured along with any voice audio and sent to the server for analysis via an Ethernet connection to the Internet. The base unit accepts the digital output from a standard EAS encoder/decoder. The OSM is also intended to monitor the on-air audio in order to confirm the actual broadcast of an EAS alert. The modular design allows for monitoring up to five signal sources per unit. Expansion cards allow monitoring of on-air signals from an external antenna or via direct audio input from existing monitor receivers. Because the OSM continuously monitors preset stations, it can detect spurious alerts and determine on/off air status, relaying this information to the server.
