Chapter 1: Introduction to the ML530
The ML530 Mic-Line Interface is a 24-channel, digitally
controlled analog preamplifier. The ML530 is controlled by
the SC253i Interface Pilot, which is controlled from the
System 5 console surface. The ML530 is packaged in a 2U rack
enclosure.
Features
The ML530 provides gain over a range of -12 to +72 dB in 0.5
dB increments for each channel. The ML530 also features a
high-pass filter, HiZ/LowZ switch, and phantom power.
Front panel LEDs provide status information for all features so
the operator can quickly view the status of each input chan-
nel. Red front panel LEDs indicate signal clipping, mute, im-
pedance, and phantom power activation. Green LEDs indicate
signal presence, activation of the high-pass filter, and pad at-
tenuator.
Redundant power is supported by purchasing an additional
power module.
Applications
Used in conjunction with the Pro Series AM713 analog to
MADI converter, the ML530 provides multiple variable gain
inputs for the System 5 or Max Air. Additional ML530s can be
added if more than 24 channels of variable gain inputs are
desired.
