The entry level model (ARC10U) is a consumer friendly
but very professional audio console. It features RCA & XLR connections so you don't
need an engineer to wire it up for you. Go ahead, just plug in your CD Decks, Microphones,
Cassette Decks...whatever you want to hook up, you can do it yourself! |
Three
Models to Choose from...
The ARC-10 family of consoles comes in 3 models. They all
have the same front panel operation and differ only in the types of input sources that
they accommodate. The choice of model tailors the console to your specific studio
application. Two of the models (ARC-10U & ARC-10UP) support standard consumer style
source equipment with off the shelf cables for installation similar to a home stereo
system. The third model (ARC-10BP) supports balanced Pro sources which may require custom
cables by an experienced radio technician.
Important Features Common
to All 3 models
... Mic channels 1 & 2 are balanced XLR with optional
Phantom power... Program Output is BOTH balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA... Telephone
channel (ch 10) is balanced In & Out with Logic. The ARC-10U is designed for
unbalanced Consumer SourcesThe ARC-10U supports studios where the CD players and other
sources are typical unbalanced consumer type sources. The ARC-10U features RCA phono
connectors so that your sources simply plug into the console with standard off the shelf
cables. This model is designed for installation similar to a home stereo system. The
ARC-10UP adds Live On Air play & record to a Windows PC. This model is identical to
the ARC-10U with the exception that input channel 9 is a USB sound card with a USB
connector for a cable to a Windows PC. Most Windows compatible audio programs can then
play through channel nine on the console and record from the console Audition bus. Arrakis
Digilink-Xtreme (ARC console mode) software is included free with the console. The free
ARC mode software has powerfull Live On Air, basic automation, and Production
capabilities. The ARC-10BP supports Balanced Pro Sources & the Windows PC. This model
is designed for applications where balanced professional source equipment will be used.
The only difference between this model and the ARC-10UP is that input channels 3-8 are
stereo balanced inputs. Eight wire RJ-45 connectors are used for the balanced audio
connectors. The USB PC interface on channel 9 is included standard as on the ARC-10UP. If
the console is to be used without a PC, internal jumpers allow channel 9 to be reassigned
as an unbalanced, stereo, RCA phono input channel. |

The ARC-15 is a powerful, general purpose console that
meet the needs for most On Air Radio & Radio Production studio applications. Channels
One - Five can be internally selected as either mic or stereo line channels. This is ideal
for talk studio applications. Channel fifteen is an advanced telephone interface to an
external hybrid for Live callers or an Off-line contest call. Channel fourteen can even be
configured with a Windows PC USB interface for use with Live On Air, Automation, &
Production software ('Free' Digilink-Xtreme (ARC mode) software is included). With 5
million operation, LED lighted, switches; long life faders; and electronic switching of
all audio signal paths; the ARC-15 is a rugged, reliable, and versatile console for
professional Radio studio applications. |
