The U-PRO series features unique dynamic power ratings due to its extremely high voltage rails, relative to its RMS power output. Resultantly, with RMS ratings of 280 W, it can deliver ultra-short bursts of 500 W RMS or 1000 W peak power; at a lower cost point than normal market expectations for such power capabilities, says the company. These are optimal performance characteristics for lightweight portable PA and ultra-compact, high output fixed install cabinet designs.

The U-PRO2 has a 280 W + 100 W two channel asymmetrical power rating for two-way loudspeaker cabinet designs, wh

DMX-Buffer is an economical alternative to an opto-splitter when there is a need to run DMX over distances greater than the standard limit of 300m. It rebuffers the DMX signal and offers full support for RDM.

Housed in a protective metal case and powered from a standard 9V PSU with a DC jack , DMX-Buffer is simple to use. DMX-Buffer XLR uses a standard 5-pin male XLR connector that is terminated internally. The output connector is an 5-pin female XLR connector. DMX-Buffer is also offered with Ethercon connectors (DMX-Buffer RJ45) to enable use with Cat5 cable.

DMX-Clarify is offered in the same form factor. It offers similar functionality to DMX-Buffer, but operates permanently in 'data fix' mode

The LCT640TS allows the user to change the polar pattern - even after the recording has been done. With its dual output mode it provides the signal to the front and back of the microphone separately, so any kind of polar pattern can be achieved. In conjunction with your DAW you can then use the included plug-in to change the pattern even after the recording has taken place.

Plus, any two LCT640TS will always form a matched pair, making it the perfect choice for stereo applications. Or you can use one mic in Dual Output mode and adjust the stereo width later in your DAW.

Handcrafted in Nashville, the Stager Microphones SR-2N is designed to capture a larger than life sound that belies its diminutive size. With its 0.6 microns large ribbon, powered by neodymium motor and a toroidal output transformer, the SR-2N is capable of delivering incredible performance in a surprisingly small housing.

The top end exhibits the typical roll off of ribbon microphones, yet the SR-2N manages to retain transient detail that flatters percussive sounds as well as bright sources, says the company.
