Protea System II 4.24C

The programmable digital crossover shall consist of four inputs

and eight outputs with the ability to assign any output to any

input. Each input channel shall include: a delay stage with a

maximum delay of 682.5ms; a gain stage capable of +12dB

boost and -40dB cut; six filter stages configurable to be a para-

metric filter with a frequency range of 19.7Hz to 21.9KHz, 1/24th

octave step and a +15dB boost, -40dB cut, or a 6 or 12dB/

octave high or low shelf filter. Each output channel shall include:

a routing stage allowing the user to assign the output to any or

a combination of input(s); a high pass/ low pass crossover filter

stage with selectable slopes of 12, 18, 24 and 48dB per octave

using Linkwitz-Riley, Bessel or Butterworth filter configurations;

four filter stages configurable to be a parametric filter with a

frequency range of 19.7Hz to 21.9KHz, 1/24th octave step and

a +15dB boost, -40dB cut, or a 6 or 12dB/octave high or low

shelf filter; a delay stage with a maximum delay of 21.33ms; a

gain stage capable of +12dB boost and -40dB cut and the abil-

ity to invert the phase; a full function compressor/limiter with

a threshold range of -20dBu to +20dBu. Each input and output

shall have individual mute capability. The programmable digi-

tal crossover shall have a maximum in/out level of +20dBu.

Frequency response shall be ±.25dB 20Hz to 20kHz. Dynamic

Range shall be greater than 110dB (20-20KHz, unweighted)

and SMPTE intermodulation distortion or THD shall be less than

0.01% at 1KHz, +20dBu. Input impedance shall be 18K ohms

active balanced. Output impedance shall be acive balanced, 100

ohms. Inputs and outputs shall be balanced type on XLR con-

nectors. A 2 X 20 backlit LCD display will show all parameter,

function and utility information. LED indicators shall show signal

level, clip, limit threshold and mute conditions. Full program-

ming and control of the unit shall be from the front panel or via

the front panel accessable RS-232 serial port using Ashly Protea

System Software, or via MIDI. There shall be 30 factory presets

that may be overwritten by the user and stored. There shall also

be a four level security lockout feature. The programmable digital

crossover shall weigh 10 lbs net and mount in a standard 19”

rack using 1 space (1.75” high). The power requirement shall

be 80-260VAC, 50-60Hz, 30W. The unit shall be an Ashly Audio

Protea System II 4.24C Digital Crossover/System Processor.
