(1)LED d’Alimentation

(2)LED de Présence de Signal

(3)LED d’écrètage

Cette LED verte indique en s’illuminant que votre unité est alimentée.

Cettte LED verte vous indique la présence d’un signal à la sortie de l’étage de puissance correspondant. Elles s’illuminent pour indiquer un niveau égal ou supérieur à 1 Watt (à 70V). Il est donc possible d’obtenir un signal ac- ceptable sans que cette LED s’illumine.

Dès qu’un canal recevra un signal trop élevé (écrètage), la circuiterie ACL(Active Clip Limiting) diminuera le gain en accordance pour permettre de ne pas endommager le système de diffusion. Cette protection s’activera en présence d’un effet de Larsen incontrôlé, hausse de gain importante, distortion,...

Un signal propre de gain raisonnable ne déclenchera pas cette protection, seul un signal de gain très important et envoyé de facon régulière l’activera, et illuminera cette LED en jaune.

Si la protection est active de facon continue, le canal correspondant de votre unité se mettra en protection pour une durée d’1 seconde, puis vérifiera de nouveau le niveau du signal. Si le signal déclenche de nouveau cette protection ce canal sera en protection de facon permanente.

Dans ce cas, la LED clignotera régulièrement. Il sera nécessaire, pour ré- activer ce canal, de réinitialiser votre unité en la mettant hors tension pour quelques secondes. SI la LED de protection clignote à la remise sous tension, il est fort probable que le canal soit défectueux, et votre unité doit être examinée par un technicien agrée.

CM2208, CM2204 specifications

Peavey, a name synonymous with quality in the audio equipment world, has made significant strides in the realm of professional microphones with its CM2204 and CM2208 models. These microphones have become fixtures in live sound, broadcasting, and studio environments, delivering exceptional performance and reliability.

The CM2204 is characterized by its dynamic design, making it an ideal choice for capturing high-SPL (Sound Pressure Level) sources without undesirable distortion. This microphone features a cardioid pickup pattern, which effectively isolates the sound source while minimizing background noise and feedback. The CM2204's rugged construction is built to withstand the rigors of live performances, ensuring that it remains functional in various settings.

On the other hand, the CM2208 is a condenser microphone that brings a different set of features to the table. It is designed to provide a broader frequency response, capturing subtle nuances of vocals and instruments with remarkable clarity. The CM2208 also employs a cardioid polar pattern, making it suitable for both studio applications and live situations where feedback rejection is paramount. Its low self-noise and high sensitivity allow for detailed sound capture, making it an excellent choice for more delicate sound sources.

Both models are equipped with Peavey's proprietary technologies, which include advanced shock-mounting systems. This technology helps to minimize handling noise and vibrations, allowing for clean and professional recordings. Additional features such as high-frequency boost switches and low-frequency roll-off options on the CM2208 offer further versatility, allowing users to tailor the microphone’s response to specific applications.

Another notable characteristic shared by both microphones is their compatibility with various equipment types. They work seamlessly with a range of mixers and amplifiers, making them versatile tools for any audio engineer. Moreover, the CM2204 and CM2208 are designed to operate across a wide frequency range, ensuring they can handle a variety of sound sources, from powerful rock vocals to subtle acoustic instruments.

In conclusion, the Peavey CM2204 and CM2208 microphones are exemplary products that cater to the needs of modern audio professionals. With their robust design, innovative technologies, and outstanding sound quality, these microphones continue to be reliable choices for anyone seeking exceptional performance in diverse audio environments. Whether in the studio or on stage, Peavey's commitment to quality is evident in these dynamic and condenser microphones, making them valuable assets in any sound setup.
