Martinsound Introduces New Low Price For MonitorMAX
MonitorMAX adds talkback, cue and monitor control to stereo DAWs and small mixers

ALHAMBRA, CA - October 5, 2002 - Martinsound introduced a new low price for the MonitorMAX Stereo Monitor Controller at the 113th AES Convention in Los Angeles (October 5-8, 2002). MonitorMAX empowers stereo digital audio workstations and small mixers by adding console-like features such as selection of independent monitor and cue for 10 stereo sources with separate level controls, alternate speakers, talkback, and optional integration with MultiMAX.

The MonitorMAX Stereo Monitor Controller adds stereo source and monitor selection with talkback functions to any DAW or small mixer, and may additionally be used as an enhancement to surround systems utilizing the MultiMAX EX and EXR multiformat monitor controllers. Providing essential monitor and talkback functions, MonitorMAX comprises a 1U rack-mounting unit housing all of the necessary interface connections and electronics, including a talkback microphone preamplifier, plus a remote controller. The remote features Monitor and Cue routing switches for up to 10 stereo sources, talkback, and level controls, plus an LCD window to display levels, mode information, and Setup menus.

Eight professional and two consumer-level stereo sources can be connected to MonitorMAX, with sensitivity of the consumer inputs adjustable from 6 to 26dB of gain in 0.1dB increments, allowing a wide range of consumer equipment to be interfaced. All 10 stereo sources may be independently routed to the separate Monitor and Cue paths. The flexibility of the system also allows both monitor paths to be used as cue feeds with independent talkback levels, with the Alt Monitor output feeding studio loudspeakers.
