1.2 FEATURES

Dual Servo Mic Preamps

Each channel of your DigiMAX LT provides ultra low noise and wide gain control allowing the user to boost a desirable signal without increasing unwanted background noise.

48V Phantom Power

Each channel of the DigiMAX LT has 48V of phantom power available. When the phantom power switch is engaged, power is supplied at a constant rate. This assures optimum performance of your condenser microphone(s) and that it will be free of distortion associated with insufficient power. This switch is located on the front panel next to each gain knob.

-20dB Pad

A -20dB pad is available on each channel of the DigiMAX LT for reducing incoming signal levels. Using this pad can provide a more manageable signal from high output devices giving the operator greater control over the incoming signal and a much reduced chance of over-driving the input, thereby avoiding distortion.

Neutrik™ Combo Connectors

Each channel of the DigiMAX LT has a mic/line connector using the Neutrik™ combo connector. This revolutionary style connector lets you use either 1⁄4” or XLR connectors in the same input.

Sample Rate Selector

The DigiMAX LT has a switch on the front panel that lets the operator choose the sample rate. It provides selectable rates of 32k, 44.1k and 48k.

Ext Clock

When the External clock switch is engaged the DigiMAX LT goes into ‘chase’ mode and automatically recognizes which of the three sampling rates is required for optimum synchronization.

Digital Optical Output

The DigiMAX LT has an adat™ (lightpipe) output that can be used with any com- mercially available digital optical cable. This cable can supply eight simultaneous outputs.
