  • Page 9: Messenger Pro Overview

    Messenger Pro - Fully digital Side Lobe-Free Steerable Line Array The Messenger Pro is equipped with two fully floating line inputs, speech and background music, and can be adapted for optimum performance separately. This results in better music and speech performance in situations where high quality music performance and superior speech intelligibility are demanded.
  • Page 10 The ADI DSP chipset and a sample rate of 48 kHz ensure a wide frequency response, up to 22kHz for crystal- clear sound quality and an impressive low frequency response. This, paired together with the patented algorithm and side lobe free suppression for speech reinforcement makes the Messenger Pro a fully versatile steerable line array.
