RSS By Roland M-300 V-Mixer

The M-300 V-Mixer is a 32-channel console that possesses many of the features and benefits of the M-400 V-Mixer but in a compact format.

The M-300 Mixing Console provides a third console choice in the growing V-Mixing System lineup that also consists of Digital Snakes, Personal Mixing and Multi-Channel Recording. Its size and affordability allows smaller to mid-sized venues to replace their analog consoles with a digital mixing solution. The M-300 Live Mixing Console is designed for any event production, houses of worship, schools, government and corporate applications.

The M-300 V-Mixer features rapid recall of setups, 17–100mm motorized faders, an 800 × 480 color screen, and knobs for EQ, Pan, and Gain. The M-300 has 32 mixing channels and includes digital patch-bays, built-in effects processors, 8 Auxs, 4 Matrices, 4 DCA’s, 4 Mute Groups, built-in stereo recording/playback and support for LCR configurations.

This digital system is built on REAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) and eliminates the bulk and noise susceptibility typically associated with analog snakes and replaces it with cat5e (Ethernet/LAN) cable. It is designed to set up in minutes by plugging in one lightweight cat5e cable from a choice of Digital Snake stage units (up to 80 inputs).

The system converts analog inputs to 24-bit digital streams at the stage end via mic preamps located near the source. The V- Mixing System then secures the quality of audio signal throughout the complete system path en route to the M-300 V-Mixer, back to any outputs and on to limitless split positions.

The 40-channel assignable output split can be used with the powerful M-48 Personal Mixing System and the Multi-Channel Recording options from Cakewalk.

The M-300 V-Mixer integrates with PCs via its Remote Control Software for additional control or sending/receiving setup data allowing users to prepare channel setups and configurations before arriving at the venue.

You can see the M-300 live at InfoComm 2010 booth #C7102.
