LX-318C CARDIOID OR OMNIDIRECTIONAL USE The LX-318C cabinet is not a conventional cardiod but a ‘2 in 1’. Because of our sophisticated integrated processor the user can select between omnidirectional or cardiod coverage, activating the rear speaker aswell as selecting the rear frequency they most want to cancel, increasing the front pressure and directivity and ensuring that rear sound does not spill on to the stage behind the sub-bass.
LX-318C ONLINE CONTROL SYSTEM Who is it for? Users of Self powered DSP incorporated Lynx Pro Audio Cabinets where the user has requested the cabinets be supplied with the Ethernet Module kit. What is it for? Obtain detailed information of cabinet behaviour and monitor the cabinet/s in real time. You can change the preset, gain, mute, polarity and phase.
