MusicCAST SYSTEM OVERVIEW
The server
The server can store approximately 1,000 music CDs in MP3 format or 100 music CDs in PCM format on its
internal hard disk drive for playback from the server or its connected clients. The server automatically stores
song, artist and album names as well as genre information for each CD during the recording process, allowing
easy access to your music without the need to enter any data manually. Once stored, songs can be selected,
sorted and played in a variety of quick and simple ways. The server can supply different songs to multiple
clients simultaneously, as well as supply songs in linear PCM format to one client at a time.
The client
MENU
MCX-C15 Distributed Audio Controller
(wired type)
Clients themselves do not store or record any music data. Instead, they connect to the server to retrieve stored
music. This allows you to install a server in your living room, and clients in your bedroom and children's
rooms, and listen to music stored on the server from each of these locations. The client also allows you to
select, sort and play songs in a variety of the ways, just like the server.
The amplifier
The MCX-CA15 Distributed Audio Amplifier can work as a stand alone amplifier for integration with your
existing audio system or paired with your client to complete the MusicCAST system. As a companion to your
client, the MCX-CA15 functions as a power amplifier and DC power distributor. It provides power to all
connected speakers, and can display your client's on-screen display (OSD) on a TV or monitor connected to
the client. The MCX-CA15 is fully controllable from your client.
