Type R
Produce » Real-Time Production » Audio Production » Audio mixers and consoles – radio »
Type R is a new modular, expandable, IP-based radio system from Calrec Audio, which utilises standard networking technology and combines it with soft panels which can be tailored to operator needs.
Type R’s physical control system consists of just three slimline panels: a fader panel, a large soft panel and a small soft panel. Each is compatible with COTS hardware and powered over ethernet to keep cabling to a minimum.
Type R has a simple 2U core at its heart with integrated I/O resources to get you up and running immediately. A single core can power up to three independent mixing environments, with no sharing of DSP resources. Whether used as independent studio consoles, microphone processors or utility mixing, the ability to use multiple mixing engines combined with the flexibility of the AES67 compatible network provide all the power you will ever need.
The touch-screen soft panels are designed around simple and colourful control elements and can easily be customised as multi-function panels. Soft Panels can be utilised in either landscape or portrait formats, and used to provide adaptable and specific functionality for talent, while ensuring overall control is maintained by the station technical team.
This functionality can be quickly changed from show-to-show using simple memory loads, and can be tailored to fit the needs of the talent. Fader panels are small, sleek and simple, with six faders and immediate access to essential controls. Fader panels can be added or removed as simply as plugging or unplugging an ethernet cable, creating a radio infrastructure which is easily expandable, and making upgrades a breeze.
Broadcast-specific control is clear and concise across the system. Bussing, including the creation of mix-minus feeds, is quick to assign, while EQ and dynamics control is clear and fast. It is a pure radio platform designed for a fast-paced modern environment. And as you would expect from Calrec, Type R is a resilient console system designed for reliable professional use, with all the requisite power, function and scalability to keep you on air for many years to come.
Type R is a thoroughly modern and customer-focused radio broadcast system which adapts to a station’s needs as its requirements evolve, and provides simple customisation across established networks, open control protocols and surface personalisation.
With a native IP Backbone, Type R provides an infrastructure for future expansion. It guarantees stations are not only able to keep pace with changing demands, but provides the facility to ignite their audiences with new and innovative programming.

Inferno
Produce » Real-Time Production » Audio Production » Audio mixers and consoles – radio »
Links To Dante Compatible Network Or DARK88 Break Out BoxInferno can be used on its own when connected to a Dante audio network. Many audio routers, consoles and intercom systems are Dante compatible, and will accept the Inferno link, enabling Glensound grade commentary into the audio network.
There are primary and secondary Dante network connections
Inferno can also be used outside of a dedicated Dante network when connected to one of our DARK or AoIP44 break out boxes. This connection can be direct or across a structured network. The DARK or AoIP44 units allow all of the audio inputs and outputs to be located in a place separate from the Inferno.
Programmable On A Dante Audio NetworkWhen connected to a Dante network, sources and destinations can be configured from any part of the network using the free Dante controller software. Details are available at www.audinate.com.
Seven Talkback CircuitsThe seven illuminated talkback buttons route the audio input to 7 different destinations and remove the audio from the main programme output.
Eight Input Headphone MixerSeven external sources plus sidetone are presented on eight level controls allowing the user to create their own required monitoring mix of all sources. Each input can be independently selected to be on the user's left ear, right ear or both ears. The headphone connection is available on a 3.5mm and a 6.35mm jack socket.
Single InputThe single input is switchable on the rear panel to be line/mic/48v and has adjustable input gain. The input also features Glensound’s Referee compressor limiter system. This applies a variable rate compressor to the input peaks so that no clipping occurs, without affecting the rest of the audio signal.
Remote ControlThe Inferno contains a web server, allowing remote functionality to an engineer from any PC connected to the network via any web browser. Enter the IP address of the Inferno in the browser for remote control of the front end mic gain. It also allows configuration of each push button on the unit to be on/off latching, momentary (push to talk), always on, and off when pushed (cough), or in an intelligent mode where a short press latches or a longer press is just momentary.
15 segment LED PPM Meter Audio input level is indicated on the 15 segment PPM meter.
Power On Dante Link Or LocallyInferno can be powered via the network audio connection if it conforms to the PoE standard. There is also an internal 100v-240v mains supply.

MinFerno
Produce » Real-Time Production » Audio Production » Audio mixers and consoles – radio »
MinFerno is a new, smaller, and even easier to use version of our exceptionally popular Inferno network audio commentary box.
MinFerno is designed for a single commentator/ announcer to use, and like its big brother the Inferno, it provides the very best possible commentary microphone amplifier and compressor limiter circuit for amazing on air sound.
The MinFerno is easy to use for commentators who would rather be talking about the game than figuring out how the equipment works. It is built to our exacting, rugged & robust standard to make it a reliable piece of broadcast equipment for the busy engineer.
Redundant Powering OptionsThe MinFerno can be powered from any of 3 different sources:1) PoE on the Primary CAT5 Network link2) PoE on the Secondary CAT5 Network link3) External 12V DCFour of rear panel LEDs show the availability of the 3 power sources.
Primary & Secondary SFP SlotsThe SFP (Small Form-Factor Pluggable) fibre slots are standard networking ports that accept standard SFP modules. This means that you decide what type of fibre and connector style you want to use just by the SFP module that you insert. The primary & secondary network circuits allow for glitch free redundancy across both the Fibre & Copper network interfaces.
Primary & Secondary Copper Network Connections with PoETwo CAT6 connections on Neutrik Ethercons (that accept standard networking cables) are provided to allow copper connections to local network switches to carry the Dante/ AES67 audio. Two connections are fitted to allow redundant circuits to be used if required.Both of these connectors can accept a PoE power source for providing the power to the MinFerno.
Input Mode & GainOne pair of push buttons selects the input type of the front panel XLR to be either microphone, line or microphone with 48V phantom power. 3 LEDs indicate which input mode is selected.Two push buttons are used to alter the gain of the input. LEDs indicate if the gain setting is above or below our pre-configured ‘lineup’ levels. The front panel PPM of course provides an accurate indication of the input level.The gain can also be altered remotely by a web browser pointing at the MinFerno's web page.
Up to 4 of Incoming Audio Volume ControlsOn the top panel are up to 5 rotary headphone volume controls. 4 of these are connected to 4 incoming audio circuits from the Dante/ AES67 network. These are normally used for such sources as mixed programme or cue, talkback to director, talkback to producer, talkback to engineer etc.
Sidetone Volume ControlThe 5th front panel rotary headphone volume control is ‘sidetone’. Sidetone is the commentator's own voice in their own ears.
Headphone RoutingEach of the 5 headphone volume controls has an associated left ear, right ear, both routing switch located next to the volume knob. This single push button switch routes the associated source to just the left, just the right or both channels of the stereo headphone amplifier. To enable the commentator to know how they are routing a circuit the first time a routing switch is pressed, a pair of LEDs on the front panel indicate its current routing arrangement. The next time the routing switch is pressed then the next routing option is selected.
Robust Mic On and Talkback ButtonsThere are up to 4 of large bright illuminated buttons (1 for programme and up to 3 for talkback). These switches route the outgoing microphone circuit onto up to 4 different Dante/ AES67 network audio circuits. The operation of these switches (momentary, latching etc) and the interaction of these switches (i.e. pressing a talkback switch mutes the main mic) can be fully configured via the web page.
15 segment LED PPM MeterAudio input level is indicated on the 15 segment PPM meter.
Low Noise Microphone Amplifier With Remote GainWe spent a long time optimising the performance of the THAT corporation microphone amplifier used in the original Inferno and used again on the MinFerno. It features very low noise & distortion circuit that we remote control the gain of in 1dB steps, which allows us to provide the remote webpage gain control as well as the rear panel gain push buttons. We also optimised the circuits to allow correct source impedance switching depending on whether the input has been set as a mic or line input.
Referee Compressor LimiterAs with all our commentary units, the MinFerno features our very popular Referee compressor limiter circuit. This circuit starts to compress the commentator’s voice gradually and slowly increases the compression ratio as the input level becomes overly high, resulting in a very natural sounding and distortion free audio output capable of taming even the loudest of commentators.
High Quality Analogue To Digital Converter (ADC)Dante/ AES67 network audio is a digital circuit and as such the best analogue microphone amplifier would be wasted if we hadn’t paired it up with the best analogue to digital converter. The ADCs job is fairly simple, and if you look at our tech spec you’ll see that we’ve made ours work incredibly well.
Unique Headphone AmplifiersThe commentator’s headphones are a vitally important tool so we take as much care with our headphone amplifiers as with our on air microphones. Our unique headphone amplifier provides the correct output level regardless of the impedance of the attached headphones, meaning that broadcasters can now pick and choose between low impedance ‘cheap’ headphones and high impedance traditional broadcast ones.

InputsTwo front panel mic inputs with selectable 48v phantom power.
Outputs/TalkbackEach mic input has its own individual output. The second mic output can be switched on the rear panel to be a mix of both mic inputs. The two talkback circuits have individual outputs and are common for both commentators.
MonitoringThere are four inputs for external sources, and one sidetone pot of their own voice and another pot for monitoring the other commentator. These are available independently to each commentator on individual pots, so each can adjust the inputs for their own preference of mix level. There are two 6.35mm headphone sockets – 1 for each commentator. A 7 segment LED PPM meter displays level.
NetworkThe network connection is AES67/Dante compatible and is available on the rear panel on an RJ45/CAT5 connection. It offers 4 input channels and 4 output channels.
PowerThere is an internal switch mode AC power supply, or the Express ip can be powered by PoE if powered by a switch that provides power over Ethernet.
