LD Systems HPA1 Electric Guitar Headphone Amplifier

The LD Systems AM8 is an 8-channel automatic matrix mixer that features balanced mic/line inputs, 96kHz/24-bit internal digital signal processing, and a frequency response of 20 Hz - 30 kHz. Networking capability, remote software control, and monitoring are ensured by the rear panel RS-232, RJ45, and DB-25 connectors. In addition, the AM8 offers AES/EBU and dual master outputs for analog and digital connectivity.

The AM8's priority feature allows for individual selection on all channels, with automatic or manual threshold setting. Front panel encoders with LED meter rings and peak indicators enable manual gain adjustment in 1 dB steps, input sensitivity selection, and priority switching. A master encoder with dual LED meters provides gain control, output selection, and mic/line level selection, as well as easy signal monitoring.

The AM8 software enhances configuration, management, and control convenience, offering features such as phantom power switching, a 35 - 150 Hz high pass filter, high- and low-shelving or 5-band parametric EQ with variable Q for input channels. It also includes a 15-band parametric EQ and limiter for each master output.

The mixer's channel inputs and master outputs utilize terminal block connectors, with cable connectors supplied with the AM8. The rear panel also offers mini-DIN connectors for linking up to 16 units for master/slave operation. Additional features include a dual output matrix with up to 8 open channels each, channel grouping for up to 5 groups, balanced mic/line inputs and outputs, and comprehensive connectivity for networking and remote control.

Dedicated software for the AM8 includes I/O parametric EQ and output limiter, providing users with a versatile and powerful mixing solution.
