SERIES FIVE MONITOR 32 BUS 48 CH------------------

SERIES FIVE MONITOR IS A DEDICATED MONITOR MIXING CONSOLE DESIGNED TO MEET THE EXACTING REQUIREMENTS OF TODAY’S MAJOR TOURS AND INSTALLATIONS. WITH INPUT CHANNELS BOASTING A FEATURE SET SIMILAR TO THAT OF THE HIGHLY-RESPECTED FIVE FRONT-OF-HOUSE CONSOLE, FIVE MONITOR OFFERS AN EQUALLY HIGH LEVEL OF CONTROL OVER STAGE SOURCES AS ITS BROTHER, BUT ADDS TO THIS THE COMPREHENSIVE ROUTING AND OUTPUT CONTROL REQUIRED FROM A MONITOR CONSOLE. IN RESPONSE TO THE DEMAND FOR LARGER, MORE COMPLEX OUTPUT CAPABILITY, FIVE MONITOR IS AVAILABLE IN TWO FRAME TYPES - 24-BUS AND 32-BUS. THE 24-BUS VERSION INCLUDES AS STANDARD A 23 X 12 OUTPUT MATRIX, GIVING AN IMPRESSIVE MAXIMUM OUTPUT CAPABILITY OF 38 BALANCED OUTPUTS. THE 32-BUS FRAME HAS AS STANDARD A 23 X 16 OUTPUT MATRIX, MAKING A MASSIVE TOTAL OF 50 BALANCED OUTPUTS. THE PROLIFERATION OF STEREO KEYBOARD OR SUBMIX SOURCES, IN ADDITION TO THE TREND TOWARDS IN-EAR MONITORING, MEANS THAT STEREO OUTPUT CAPABILITY IS NOW NO LONGER A LUXURY OPTION: BOTH FIVE MONITOR FRAME TYPES SUPPORT STEREO OUTPUTS - 9 STEREO ON THE 24- BUS, AND 17 STEREO ON THE 32-BUS CONSOLE.
THE 24-BUS CONSOLE IS AVAILABLE WITH 44, 52 OR 60 INPUT CHANNELS. THE 32-BUS CONSOLE IS AVAILABLE WITH 40, 48 OR 56 INPUT CHANNELS.

FOR THOSE SITUATIONS WHICH DEMAND THAT OUTPUTS FEED A COMBINATION OF DIFFERENT SYSTEMS (WEDGES, IN-EAR), THE FIVE MONITOR OFFERS TWO SOLO SYSTEMS - REGULAR SOLO AND ALT SOLO. VIA A SIMPLE SWITCH ON THE OUTPUTS, EACH GROUP AND MATRIX OUTPUT BUS MAY BE SET TO SEND TO EITHER OF THESE SOLO SYSTEMS, MAKING SETUP OF ACCURATE SOLO CONFIGUR-ATIONS (PERHAPS A MAIN WEDGE ON SOLO, AND AN ENGINEER IN-EAR SET ON ALT SOLO) A SIMPLE TASK.

IN ADDITION, VIA A SPECIAL PAIR OF AUXILIARY MIDI PORTS, THE FIVE MONITOR CAN SEND MESSAGES TO A BSS FPC-900 VARICURVE REMOTE CONTROLLER OR DBX DRIVERACK TO SELECT PARTICULAR SLAVE EQ DEVICES IN A RACK WHENEVER A FIVE MONITOR OUTPUT SOLO IS ACTIVATED. THIS ACCELERATES CONSIDERABLY THE PROCESS OF SOLOING AND EDITING AN OUTPUT EQ. OF COURSE, ALL OF THIS IS PACKAGED IN THE RUGGED, ROAD-PROVEN FRAME OF THE FIVE, DESIGNED TO KEEP WEIGHT AND SIZE TO A MINIMUM WITHOUT SACRIFICING MECHANICAL INTEGRITY. THE PACKAGE IS COMPLETED BY THE ADDITION OF THE SAME ACCLAIMED ALL-NEW FIVE POWER SUPPLY DESIGN - THE CPS2000, FEATURING BUILT-IN REDUNDANCY LINK, INDUSTRY STANDARD LINEAR CIRCUIT DESIGN AND PLENTY OF HEADROOM.
