Overview

Features

The SRP-X500P is a versatile powered mixer which incorporates an audio mixer, RGB/video switcher, processor, and power amplifier into a 3U-rack-size unit.

9 preset AV system type settings

By setting the SYSTEM TYPE selector, the SRP-X500P supports various AV system comfigurations.

Projector control

The PROJECTOR CONTROL RS-232C connector or the CONTROL S IN/OUT connectors can be used to change the power status of a Sony projector or plasma display to on or to standby, and to select the input signal.

Built-in digital mixer

The digital mixer features A/D and D/A converters with a 24-bit/48-kHz sampling rate and a high-performance DSP. In addition to regular audio mixer features, the SRP- X500P offers such digitally enabled functions as a feedback reducer comprising an independent channel and automatic gain control (AGC).

Various audio input/output connectors

Four microphone inputs and two stereo line inputs can be freely assigned to four output systems.

Compatibility with composite/RGB/ component signals

The SRP-X500P is equipped with three composite inputs and two RGB/component inputs. These inputs eliminate the need for a separate RGB switcher or video switcher, resulting in a simplified system configuration. The SRP- X500P supports high-resolution component signals such as 480p and 1080i, and also SXGA (1280 × 1024 pixels) for RGB.

Built-in digital amplifiers

90 W + 90 W + 50 W + 50 W (8or 4) power amplifiers are incorporated. The SRP-X500P also supports 60 W high-impedance speakers (70 V LINE, 82).

Remote connectors for external devices

RS-232C connectors

The REMOTE RS-232C connector allows the use of an

external personal computer or system controller to control the SRP-X500P.

REMOTE PARALLEL connector

Input signal selection, volume control and scene control of the SRP-X500P can be performed via the input pins. Through the output pins, remote control of the environmental equipment such as a screen and lighting equipment, and the status display of the SRP-X500P can be carried out.

Installation of up to two tuner units

To enable the use of wireless microphones, the tuner slots of the SRP-X500P allow the installation of up to two WRU-806 units (not supplied) or the URX-M1 Tuner Units that come with the UWP-X1/X2 (not supplied).

Rack mounting

The SRP-X500P can be mounted into an EIA-standard 19- inch rack (with a 3U-height).
