POWER SUPPLY
The LA12X-1 relies on a proprietary switch mode power supply (SMPS) equipped with a DSP-controlled PFC, capable of delivering 12,000 W regardless of mains voltages (from 240 V down to 100 V.)
The PFC offers high immunity to unstable mains and lowers typical power consumption by up to 40% for the same usage conditions i.e., more power is available to the output stages from a given circuit (16 A at230 V mains, 30 A at 120 V mains)
In addition to the high raw RMS power ra ting, the ability to deliver energy (power x hold time) yields the best performance from loudspeaker systems, especially in LF reproduction
I/O
The four A12X-1 inputs areavailable in analoque AES and AVB. Four cascaded 24-bit and 96 kHz A/D converters at the frontend yield an impressive encoding dynamic of130dB. AES/EBU diaital inputs operate with sample rate converters from44.1 kHz to192 kHz. Automatic fallback functions make the creation of redundant audio paths possible with constant delay and constant level.
DSP
Operating at 96kHz with32 bit float precision,theDSP combines IIR and FIR filters to generate perfectly linearized phase curves and significantly improved impulse responses for an even, more natural, transparent and realistic sound experience.
Engineer Workflow Tools
Positioned after theDSP block dedicated to gain, delay and polarity adjustment of the system, the advanced DSP tools can be used along the live engineering workflow ,comprising three steps from overal system settings to specitic adjustments:
First, seting the frequency response of the line source with Array Morphing: the System Engineer can easily achieve the same tonal balance for different geometry line source arrays and combine different line source speakers in the same installation while offering the same sonic signature.
Second,ensuring the line arization of HFusing plateau FIR filters and the air absorption compensation filter. In long throw applications, high frequency propagation can bestrongly affected by air absorption. Compensation of this phe nomenon re-establishes the original frequency response of loudspeaker enclosures, up to a limit dictated by the need to preserve a maximum of the ariver resources.
Third,tweaking the system response(EQ station features )using the pool of 81IR filters to fine tune the system within its environment and notch out frequencies.
