Component video signal

General term for video signal format composed of the Y.CBCR, Y.PBPR and Y.B-Y.R-Y luminance signal + color signal.

The component video signal is sometimes simply called the “color difference signal”.

G ON SYNC

English

This indicates a video signal in the form of a synchronization signal added to the G (GREEN) signal of the R.G.B signal.

S jack (S VIDEO jack)

This jack separates and transmits the video signal as two signals; the luminance (Y) signal and the color(C) signal. Because of this, picture reproduction is superior to that obtained at the composite input/output jacks.

S-video signal

The video signal is composed of two signals; the chroma signal (color signal) which reproduces color and the luminance signal which reproduces light and darkness. With standard video components, these two signals are combined into one and are handled as a video signal referred to as the “composite signal”. The S-video signal, however, is a signal that handles these two signals separately. Because they are not combined as in the composite video signal, the high quality of both signals can be retained.

PDA-5004, PDA-5003 specifications

The Pioneer PDA-5004 and PDA-5003 are innovative models in the realm of professional audio and multimedia processing, designed to meet the demands of both live sound and installed audio applications. These two products share many features and technologies, making them aligned in performance and capabilities while catering to slightly different user needs.

The PDA-5004 is equipped with a powerful four-channel amplifier that delivers 500 watts per channel at 4 ohms. This robust output ensures that users can have high-performance sound reinforcement for large venues or installations. In contrast, the PDA-5003 offers a three-channel design with an individual output of 500 watts per channel at 4 ohms, providing a slightly less complex setup while still offering ample power for many applications.

One of the key features of both models is their advanced digital signal processing (DSP) capabilities. This built-in DSP offers a range of features including equalization, crossover settings, and delay functions, allowing audio engineers to fine-tune sound to suit specific environments and preferences. Users can benefit from multiple pre-set configurations designed specifically for different types of audio experiences, from music playback to spoken word events, enhancing versatility.

The units also incorporate a variety of connectivity options, including XLR and RCA inputs, as well as outputs that facilitate integration with other audio devices and systems. They support both balanced and unbalanced connections, making them compatible with a wide range of audio sources. The inclusion of Ethernet connectivity on the PDA-5004 allows for remote control and monitoring via compatible software, offering enhanced convenience for professional users.

In terms of build quality, both amplifiers are designed with durability in mind, featuring a rugged chassis that can withstand the rigors of touring and installation environments. Additionally, their efficient cooling systems prevent overheating during prolonged use, ensuring reliability in demanding situations.

Overall, the Pioneer PDA-5004 and PDA-5003 represent a synthesis of cutting-edge technology and user-friendly features that make them well-suited for professionals seeking high-quality audio performance. With powerful amplification, advanced DSP capabilities, and versatile connectivity options, these models stand out as effective solutions for live sound and permanent installations alike.
