    The Glensound Expedition is powered either from batteries (6 x AA cells) or an external DC input. Internally the Glensound Expedition is a highly sophisticated digital mixer, it has 2 analogue inputs both of which pass through high quality analogue to digital converters and then these signals are handled and routed by the onboard DSP.

    ANTENNAS SUPPLIED The Expedition is supplied fitted with a pair of antennas suitable for general use.

  • Page 34 Not all batteries are equal in the amount of energy that they store. In fact they vary hugely. A battery that does not store much energy will of course not keep the Expedition running as long as one that stores a lot of energy. Traditionally Alkaline batteries have always been the choice of Broadcasters, and we still recommend them over most other battery types, however Lithium Ion batteries are now commonly available and generally far exceed alkaline batteries.
