Optocore Control Software

PG-AUDIO devices transport analog audio and data signals that can be customized to fit user needs. PG16-AUDIO devices have four different rear types that enable the conversion of signals: 16 inputs, 16 outputs, 8 inputs, 8 outputs and 8 dual microphone inputs with two independent adjustable gains. PG8-AUDIO devices have three different rear types that enable the conversion of signals: 8 microphone inputs, 8 line inputs or 8 line outputs. FX devices can add and/or extract up to 1024 audio channels from the ProGrid network and 64 audio channels to/from the SANE network. A single TP device can exchange up to 64 audio channels from the SANE network and two AES/EBU ports, each capable of 16 channels.

The PG32-AES device offers four principal ports for connection and transport of a total of 32 AES/EBU digital audio channels, ie 64 mono channels. The 4 x DSub25 ports with eight channels can be assigned as AES/EBU inputs or AES/EBU outputs in groups of four. The PG32-AES can be used as an interface to all microphone pre-amps with AES3 outputs. It serves as I/O to the converter devices to PG-Audio FX devices or via SANE to PG-Audio TP devices. Using ProGrid microphone preamps, the PG32-AES enables direct gain control of the preamps from most digital consoles, including Yamaha, DiGiCo, Soundcraft, Studer, Lawo or SSL digital consoles. Devices include dual power supplies with automatic switchover.

PG2-MADI devices have two MADI input and two MADI output ports, allowing the transmission of up to 128 input and 128 output digital audio channels. Each MADI port can be adjusted to handle different formats according to AES10 standards. The PG2-MADI-C is equipped with coaxial MADI interfaces using standard BNC connectors, suitable for DiGiCo and AVID digital consoles. The PG2-MADI-F is equipped with duplex SC multi-mode optical interfaces. As an interface, it is possible to control ProGrid microphone preamps directly from Soundcraft, Studer, Lawo or SSL digital consoles.
