With the MX2100 eliminates the analogical connection between conventional audio consoles and the audio inputs on the laptops, which are not designed for professional use. The Solidyne MX2100 connects to the computer with a standard USB cable, which resolves the sends and returns via Internet to link with the radio.
3 inputs for dynamic microphones, 1/4” TRS female jack. Non-saturation pre-amplifiers with “local- feedback” technology by Solidyne. 1 built-in condenser microphone (shares the knob with the line input). 1 line input (mono), compatible with headphone output of portable players and digital recorders.
Headphones outputs (cue): 3 outputs for headphones. Headphone mix combines sources and return signals according to the connections diagrams. RJ11 to land-line or wired cell phone. Bluetooth to link to studios or remote journalist. USB port for streaming via Internet (using a laptop). ...
REAR PANEL REAR PANEL 2.1.1 Inputs 2.1.1.1 Microphone inputs The console Solidyne MX2100 has 3 microphone inputs (MIC-1, MIC-2, MIC-3) using ¼” TRS connectors. Pre-amps use a technique called "local feedback" that avoids saturation when the sound pressure level over the microphone capsule is high (e.g.
2.1.2 Input connections LIN-4 Microphones Sleeve Sleeve Signal Ring Balanced (+) Balanced (-) If connects a stereo signal to line input, take in mind that this input is monoaural, so only the left channel will be used. A plug-plug stereo TRS cable can be used without risk, since at the console the ring (right channel) leaves unconnected.
Balanced output TRS (Plug) to balanced input XLR Balanced output TRS (Plug) to unbalanced input (stereo TRS o RCA mono) The program signal is processed by a compressor to reduce the dynamic range, avoiding differences of levels on the air or distortion on the telephone line due to signal peaks.
opposite side of the console, are good places. The Bluetooth wireless connection has better audio quality since the signal remains in the digital domain from the cell phone to the MX2100. 2.2.1.1 Link the cell phone to the console By linking cell phones to the console creates a link between two devices, and allows the phone to remember the unique ID of the console (ID).
In some cell phones, it is necessary to "connect" the new device found to active it. In others, the new device is activated after being detected. If there are other Bluetooth devices near to the MX2100, turn off Bluetooth on the MX2100, repeat the search in the cell phone and write-down the existing devices.
The cell phone manages through this connector the audio signals. The console sends PGM signal to the cell, which transmits to the radio. The radio sends back to the telephone, which enters through the cell phone to the console and sent to the headphone mix (Studio). Usually, the microphone and speaker phone are disconnected while using the audio connector for hands-free.
Dial the phone number. • To talk, you can use the built-in microphone (Line-1 / MIC), or a • microphone connected to the console (recommended). Both signals are sent to studios via land line. The RJ-11 connections are: No connected LINE LINE No connected...
Studios the signal of MX2100 is received using a standard telephone hybrid. To achieve good results it is recommended to use professional quality equipment. Solidyne provides high quality telephone hybrid, both rack- mount units (Series HL-202 and Bluetooth HL-203VQ) and built-in systems into the on-air consoles.
USING THE CONSOLE 3 . 1 F r o n t p a n e l 3.1.1 Power on Pressing “ON” the console starts up, either the console is connected to a charger or operating with internal battery. When the unit is connected to USB, to the charger or computer, charging indicator LED ("CHG") is on, while the console is off.
WHEN THE CONSOLE IS USED FOR FULL-DUPLEX REAL-TIME LINK, ALWAYS CONNECT THE MICROPHONE TO THE INPUT MIC-3, since it switches the USB return for direct monitoring in headphones. In this condition USB is not available for PGM ("3.3.1 Remote Studio"). The knob 'MIC-4/LIN/Bluetooth' manages the signal from the built-in microphone;...
Hybrid's return. • (c) If the communication is full duplex via Internet (using a VoIP software with the laptop, see “3.3.1 – Reporter or real time mobile unit”) there is no delays. The signals available at the headphones are: The PGM mix conformed by MIC-1; MIC-2; MIC-3 •...
3 . 2 T e l e p h o n i c l i n k The communication is done from the phone connected to the console, either land-line or cell phone (See “2.2 link with the radio station”). The following describes the procedure for both cases: 3.2.1 Cell phone If the cell phone is linked via Bluetooth, call to the radio station...
3.2.4 If the communication is interrupted... As the cell phone ends the call when the connection is broken, you can wait for the radio to call and respond by pressing YES/SND on the cell phone, or '#9' on console's keypad. When answer, the radio link is restored. If you are using a land-line and communication lost, release the ON-AIR to make or receive a new call.
3.3.1 Reporter or real time “mobile unit” 3.3.1.1 About transmission This case refers to full duplex transmission to Studios. The console connects via USB to a laptop with Internet access. The link with the studio is done with the laptop using a VoIP software (like Skype ) which provides great audio quality with minimal delay even with low bandwidth.
In the previous case, the MX2100 is a remote studio, which transmits to the radio station. The link is half-duplex, using a high quality audio streaming. 3.3.2.1 About the transmission The console connects via USB to a laptop with Internet access.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS 4 Microphone inputs; 3 external dynamic MIC and one internal condenser MIC. Audio inputs 1 line (mono) to connect portable recorders. USB to connect a laptop From -20 dBu to -75 dBu. Non clipping MIC amplifier at any MIC Input levels level.
