Signature DDA 1:6

The DDA 1:6 is a cost effective distribution amplifier for digital AES signals.  Via rear panel XLRs there is a single input and 6 outputs.

The output signals can pass straight through without any normalising.  This is useful if you need syncronisation to be maintained. There is also an option to re-normalise all of the output signals to ensure that all outputs are at the full digital level again.  It is important to realise that re-normalising a digital signal while often desirable, does cost one sample.

A headphone monitoring position is also provided on the front panel via a 6.35mm stereo jack socket.  This allows monitoring of the incoming audio signal via a variable level pot.

LEDs indicate AES lock or if there is an AES error.

Signature ADA 1:8G

The Signature ADA 1:8G is a broadcast specification 8 way mono analogue distribution amplifier, designed to distribute a single audio channel to multiple destinations.

The ADA 1:8G has 1 x single channel input that is distributed to 8 x mono outputs, each with its own gain control.

The audio input and outputs are electronically balanced on XLRs and can accommodate unbalanced connections if required. The output gains are on front panel multi turn potentiometers (recessed to prevent accidental operation). They provide a wide gain range to cope with the different gain level requirements of broadcast or domestic level equipment.

All outputs are protected, so a short circuit on one will not affect any of the others.

Power is provided by an internal switch mode power supply, with a wide input range. There is also an input for external 12v DC power. The 12v DC input can be connected to the optional Signature PS1external DC Master Power Station, for situations where a redundant power supply is desirable.

The Signature ADA2S12MGT is a broadcast specification 12 way mono analogue distribution amplifier, designed to distribute a stereo audio channels to multiple mono destinations.

The ADA 2S12MGT has 1 x stereo input that is distributed to 12 x mono outputs. The two audio inputs (1 stereo circuit) each have their own input gain preset controls. These allow an engineer to set the inputs up to work with levels that suit you, such as mono out = A+B-3 or A+B-6 or 0dB in = 0dB out, or even adjust the inputs for accepting unbalanced domestic levels.

Each of the 12 outputs also have preset gain controls, this allows different outputs to be connected and lined up with different systems.

    Agile Delivery

    Agile CDN Manager

    Agile CDN, by Edgeware, is the next-generation CDN that uses the Agile CDN Director & Management functionalities for orchestrating and managing caches.

    Agile CDN Director

    At the center of a CDN sits the logic that manages session setup and load balances traffic across the CDN, optimizing network utilization and user experience.

    The Agile Directorauthorizes sessionsto prevent unauthorized access and assigns the session to the optimal cache based on network topology, content popularity, user location, and current load and capacity in the CDN.

    This ensures thatonly authorized users receive the best possible experiencewhile network utilization is optimized.

    Agile Cache

    Agile Cache is a cache software that can be deployed on any COTS platform or as a docker in a virtualized deployment. It implements the basic caching functionality and interfaces required for management and configuration, including clustering of servers, and back-end load balancing for cache-fill.

    Agile Cache is designed to provide the best possible performance out of the platform deployed on, rather than having strict requirements of specification to guarantee a certain performance.

    GS-CU001B

    The GS-CU001B MkII is a highly versatile commentary unit. It was designed after close consultation with end users and the result is a stand alone unit which offers a wide range of facilities, and it is equally at home on the terraces, as it is in a studio.

    The MkII VersionThe MkII version now adds the following as standard features:

    – 48v phantom power

    – upgraded input gain pot

    – input gain range increased from -20 to +10 dB

    – GPOs on Mic and talkback buttons to allow integration with main intercom or talkback system

    VERSION 3 (TT): This version has transformer balanced inputs & outputs with high quality Llundhall transformers on the individual mic outputs.

    InputsThree front panel inputs are mic/line switchable with selectable 48v phantom power. The front panel also has a small gain adjustment pot. Mic on/off switches can be selected in on/off mode or in cough mode. There is a global low frequency cut that can be selected on or off, and a preset compressor/limiter per input.

    Outputs/TalkbackEach input has a direct discrete output on the rear panel along with a mixed output of all of the inputs, all on XLR. The mixed output is also available on an un-balanced 3.5mm jack socket as a local record. The direct output levels can be set in 3 positions:

    1: 0dB + limiter: This is the normal operation and it limits peak levels.

    2: 0dB: This feeds the output with an un-compressed nominal level of 0dB, for when the peak signal level will be controlled by outboard equipment.

    3: -20dB: This feeds the output with a nominal level of -20dB providing extra headroom.

    There are 3 common talkback circuits with individual buttons on the two main commentators’ sections (Position B’s input cannot be switched to a talkback output). The operation of the talkback buttons features Config+ for configuring in different modes.

    MonitoringThere are two main commentator monitoring sections, each with two separate 6.35mm A or B gauge jack sockets for headphones. In this way, the centre position B commentator can choose to share the monitoring of commentator A or C. There are 5 common external sources available for monitoring, plus an additional control which is the sum of the other 2 commentators/inputs. Each of the 6 pots has variable level control and left/both/right switching allowing commentator A and C to achieve their desired mix and balance levels. The sidetone control is located on the rear panel for commentator A and C to adjust the level of their own voice. There is a 7 segment LED PPM meter.

    PowerThere is an internal switch mode power supply 100-250v AC, with external power via a 4 pin XLR 9-18v DC.

    ModificationsThe GS-CU001 is a complete and versatile base system, and Glensound’s most popular commentary unit. It is therefore a perfect starting point for custom requirements. This has resulted in many custom modified units, some listed above, and some not. We are always happy to investigate a particular requirement that you may have. To give you an idea of what is possible, these are some of the modifications, we have designed previously for others:

    Added GPIO on a 9 pin D-typeMoved the sidetone control to the top panel on a full size potAdded a talkback channel and monitor between the A and C commentary positions (GS-CU001D and E)Independent monitoring inputs for commentator A and C (GS-CU001E)Additional mic passive outputs (GS-CU001E)Added an additional headphone monitoring input (GS-CU001G)Added two mic inputs for commentator A and C with a simple toggle switch between them (GS-CU001L)
