Cobalt Digital Inc. introduces the ARIA AUD-MON-V, a 1RU AUDIO MONITORING PANEL featuring best-in-class sound monitoring from a compact rack mount size device. Developed as a result of customer feedback, the sound is produced by an efficient Class-D amplifier with DSP and specially selected speaker components. The ARIA AUD-MON-V front panel is designed for simple and intuitive operation. Each of the 8 individual front panel volume controls has a push to mute / solo feature. The V shape knobs are ergonomically positioned to quickly locate and adjust channels of interest. A push to mute master speaker volume control is placed to the right of the LCD display. The LCD display can present audio levels and live video. The display can be expanded in several ways to view additional audio channels. A 1/4 inch headphone jack is placed to the left of the controls to mute the speakers when headphones are plugged in. Factory presets provide a solid starting point out of the box from which to customize your favorite set-ups.
The color LCD display keeps you informed of 16 channels of SDI metering, 64 channels of MADI, or up to 64 *DANTE channels and their status. The display will show PPM with peak hold and Loudness. From the browser UI, you can arrange the screen to display different combinations of input channels and save those layout settings to the preset buttons located on the front panel.
The audio monitor features an Ethernet port for IP-based UI configuration. The web-based browser control system includes input and channel assignments, button presets, button and panel locks, and other important system management operations. The control system allows different panel setups to be stored and recalled from the browser to provide extremely flexible operations.
After setting up the configuration just as you need it, save and upload that configuration to other ARIA audio monitor panels on your network.
