S-4000S-0832
S-4000S-MR
The 40Ch I/O modular rack
configured to be used at the Front
of House position for connection
to mixing console with ordinary
XLR cables. This configuration
would be used with an
S-4000S-3208 at the stage position.
Modular rack chassis with no
pre-installed In/Out modules.
Designed for custom
configurations such as 24x16 and
40x0.

Level meter displays the input
levels of up tp 40 channels
Gain adjustment for each
input channel, padding and
phantom power settings
Instant recall of appropriate
setup from internal memory
The S-4000R can be connected to any RSS digital snake
device via the serial interface. It provides easy remote
control of all input gain adjustments, phantom power
and PAD settings. Since the remote can save up to 10
setups to internal memory, you can instantly recall the
right settings for performance/stage configurations
and room defaults instantly.
Cable strain relief rail
Protective rail used to relieve
cable strain and to prevent
accidental unplugging of the
D-sub cables.
Input terminal
8 channels of analog input
with D-Sub connection.
Output terminals
32 channels of analog
output with D-Sub
connection. 8 channels
per one D-sub.
Power switch protection
Cover to prevent accidental
turning off of the power
switch.
The S-4000H receives signals from the stage and is typically placed
next to the FOH mixing console. Its 32 analog outputs are used to
send signals from the stage to the mixing console and its 8 inputs
for returning signal such as Main audio or monitor mixes to the
stage. AD and DA conversions are 24bit/96kHz.

S-4000 Digital Snake System
Analog Input Modules
On board 24bit/96kHz AD converters and
high quality mic pre-amps with phantom
power supply.
Analog Output Modules
On board 24bit/96kHz
DA converters.
Input Channel Indicator
This indicates Signal, Clip and On/Off status of
the phantom power for each input channel. The
status of the input channels can be checked even
from the stage.
REAC Module
Redundant REAC transfer provides
continuation of audio transmission
even in case of accidental damage
of one cable.
MIDI terminals
MIDI is transferred down the snake
from both the In and Out MIDI
connectors. These enable the remote
control of mixers or musical
instruments from external MIDI
devices at the stage or FOH positions.
Mode Selection Switch REMOTE terminal (RS-232C)
Connection for either the dedicated
remote controller (S-4000R) or a
computer installed with the remote
control software (S-4000RCS*).
Power Inlets
The Locking Arm is equipped to
prevent accidental unplugging of
the power cord. The DC power
supply connection is provided for
use with an optional redundant
power supply in case of power
supply failure.
Mute All Outputs button
When this button is pressed and held,
all Outputs in the S-4000 system will be
muted. This is convenient for changing
cable connections.
Cooling fans x 3
Internal heat is exhausted using 3
fans on the rear panel reducing the
operational noise of the fans.
This unit has 32 inputs + 8 outputs and is typically installed at
stage side. The AD/DA conversion is 24bit/96kHz. High quality
XR-1 pre-amps are provided for each input channel, which can
accept both mic and line level inputs, eliminating the need for
direct boxes. Phantom power and an input PAD is available for
each channel.
Master
Outputs source audio to the Slave and Split devices
It receives Input from the Slave device.
Slave
Split
Receives Input from and sends output to the Master
device.
Receives Input from all of the Master device’s sources.
