All NE two channel power amplifiers come standard with XLR and Euroblock input connectors, and SpeakON/Euroblock
output connectors. All models include balanced analog inputs, bridge mono mode, an 80Hz hi-pass filter, input sensitivity switch,
full Ethernet control using Protea
ne
software, remote standby for power up, and DC remote level control. Also included are
Analog Aux Outputs on XLR and Euroblock connectors. The Aux Outputs are buffered signals taken just before the power
amplifier stage. If there is no DSP installed in the amplifier, the Aux Outputs are simply a buffered signal matching the inputs.
If the amplifier has DSP, Aux Outputs can be independently configured along with the two main amplifier channels with custom
DSP processing and input source, including AES3 or network audio sources if installed.
Additional Factory installed options are available for the NE two channel power amplifiers including the following:
1) Internal DSP Processing - With this option installed and using Protea
ne
(network enabled) software, each amplifier
input channel can be configured with pluggable DSP blocks to have its own dynamics control, gain functions, graphic and/or
parametric EQ, Hi-pass/Lo-pass filters, time delay, metering, and test signal generator. A mixer section with assignable routing
allows any input to drive any or all amplifier outputs. Outputs have the same DSP functions as inputs, with the addition of a
fast, automated crossover setup. Both inputs and outputs can copy/paste their settings to other channels, or can link with one or
more other channels to track their settings.
Presets can be used to store and retrieve global parameters of an amplifier’s control surface and DSP section from a file.
In addition, Sub Presets allow for a collection of individual DSP function parameters within and across both channels of an
amplifier to be stored and recalled as a set, affecting only those parameters which have been tagged. Up to 35 presets/subpresets
can be stored within the amplifier, and can be recalled in real time via Ethernet from a computer using Protea
ne
software.
2) AES3 Input - With the OPAES1 option installed, this amplifier can accept AES3 stereo digital inputs. This protocol
allows 2 channels of digital audio to be transmitted over a single cable, thus maintaining a completely digital signal path until
just before the power amplification stage. 48kHz & 96kHz data rates are supported.
3) Network Digital Audio - Ashly supports CobraNet and Dante network audio options that can be ordered and factory
installed when purchasing the amplifier. CobraNet
®
www.cobranet.info is a combination of software, hardware and network
protocol which allows distribution of multiple channels of real-time, high quality digital audio over a standard Ethernet Network.
Dante™, created by Audinate, is an Ethernet based digital AV network technology that uses existing 100MB or 1GB network
infrastructure for delivery of high performance, high channel count audio signals.
