Scale capacity, not performance

Around the world, the highest profile broadcast organisations rely on C100 technology to deliver reliable, sonically superb performance for mono, stereo and surround productions. The C100 product range extends from the largest C100 HD console capable of the global audience sports productions in full surround for HD television, to a compact sister C100 HD-L console designed for local audience broadcast productions.

Where other systems scale capacity and performance, the C100 range is different in scaling only capacity to match requirements. This

means that performance can be relied on to deliver, whatever the scale of the operation. In a world where today’s local news story, is tonight’s global event, being able to rely on the ability to match performance and quality at all levels in the broadcast organisation is a key benefit of the C100 range.

Ergonomic Freelance-Friendly Interface

•Sharing a common layout, in use, the C100 consoles present the operator with a compact, clear and logical layout, with controls that assist error-free operation even for infrequent users

•The combination of a touchscreen interface with accompanying dedicated and assignable soft keys present the essential ‘on-line’ features at the top level, while keeping system configuration pages out of the operator’s way

•The hardware control surface of all the range is familiar and uncluttered even when handling complex 5.1 set ups

•While operation is simple, the feature set is comprehensive, providing all of the reset and configuration benefits associated with digital technology

Live To Air HD 5.1 Ready

•All the C100 range provide simultaneous 5.1, stereo and mono signal paths from source through to destination, with streamlined routing and control capability. This makes set-up and manipulation of multiple 5.1 mixes an intuitive and straightforward process

•Single fader 5.1 mix control simplify surround production, with complete

5.1mixes folded together under a single fader or released onto adjacent faders

•SSL consoles are trusted by audio professionals worldwide to deliver the pristine audio signal path required to meet the demands of HD 5.1 audio

•SSL EQ, Filters & Dynamics processing on every channel provides the tools to sculpt perfect 5.1 mixes quickly

•A full processing toolkit is retained regardless of mono/stereo/

5.1format

Fully Independent - Extremely Robust

•Virus proof proprietary audio and control processing engines, with no reliance upon third party computing platforms

•The C100’s processing is designed with the requirements of the broadcast industry in mind. Its robust construction and intelligent systems monitoring inspire confidence and ensure continuous operation

•Self-healing DSP has onboard monitoring for fast, fault-tolerant processing recovery in under 1/10th second

•Redundant power supplies and low power consumption mean simple UPS provision and dual source redundancy with automatic power source switchover.

•Control surfaces reset in seconds without audio interruption

Maintenance friendly

•Fast and easy front access to key hardware assemblies, ensuring that maintenance can be carried out swiftly and effectively with minimum interruption to production

•Secure, encrypted NetBridge system provides local and remote diagnostic access over standard IT networks without intrusion in the control room or tying up the control surface

•Session templates may be imported and exported across the Internet or on ‘memory card’ media for offline configuration

Advanced Integration, Routing & Communication

Console routing & control

•The C100’s integral digital routing system uses no external computer systems or third party hardware requirements

•Routing to and from I/O and DSP may be achieved quickly and with great flexibility - multiple routes may be made in one operation

•Multichannel (stereo and 5.1) signals may be routed as a single bundle, or as ‘breakaways’

•Two independently configurable outputs per channel, with secondary ‘submix source’ input

•Simultaneous N-1 feeds and parallel clean/ISO feeds

•Flexible matrix for pre- and post-fader processing

•Precise Delay adjustment of up to 10 frames

per channel for lip-sync correction of video feeds

I/O and routing expansion

•‘Mix and match’ I/O cards provide Mic, Line, AES/EBU, and MADI I/O interface options

•Remote stageboxes can be linked via fibre-optic for expanded mic inputs and stage cue feeds

•Full remote-control of mic preamps provides status overview from the C100 control surface

•High immunity to interference voltages and magnetic fields ensures the highest quality in the harshest environments.

Monitoring & Communications

•Four 12-way mini routers provide monitoring options for the numerous talent, production area and communication mixes that have become a standard requirement in programme creation

•Dual independent monitor signal paths for Main (5.1) and Mini (stereo) outputs

NESN Studios, USA

•5.1 Monitor insert point with separate stereo return

•Integral 5.1 to stereo downmix and mono compatibility format checking

•Choice of AFL/PFL on both Main and Mini paths

•Two independent comms feeds provide studio monitoring with speaker muting logic

•All switching can be controlled externally via GPIs or from centre section Soft Keys

Comprehensive GPI control

•The GPI control options within the C100 range meet a wide range of practical integration challenges. Audio-Follow-Video (AFV) and advanced controls of external equipment are included, allowing powerful control combinations to be realised.
