Lowest distortion excellent signal to noise ratio and perfectly linear frequency response transmit and amplify the microphone signals truly unchanged.The Octa Mic II includes some significant enhancements compared to the Octa Mic:The balanced TRS inputs of the Neutrik Combo XLR jacks are phantom power-free and can be operated as real line inputs too. The improved design of the input circuits allows for a maximum input level of +21 d Bu with a convenient gain range from 6 d B up to 60 d B. Improved signal to noise ratio (SNR) ADC 107.5 d B Improved THD especially at higher gains Optimised heat dissipation by a new and larger housing with improved convection Internal wide range power supply with line filter insensitive to voltage fluctuations Super-stable short circuit proof 48 V phantom power Connectivity8 x Mic / Line Preamp Input (XLR/TRS Combo) 8 x Line Output (TRS balanced) 8 x AD-converter (up to 192 k Hz) 2 x ADAT Output (S/MUX up to 96 k Hz) 4 x AES/EBU Output (D-sub up to 192 k Hz) 1 x AES/SPDIF Sync Input Phase Low Cut and Phantom power per channel Clip Hold Memory Features Octa Mic II offers 8 balanced XLR mic / line inputs via Neutrik XLR/TRS combo jacks. Each channel contains switches for 48V phantom power a low cut filter and phase reversal. Amplification can be set between 6 and 60 d B. LEDs for signal clip and activated phantom power give a complete overview on the units status. When the special Clip Hold mode is activated any detected clip-state will cause the corresponding LED to flash once per second. With this the user gets a long-term peak detection and no longer needs to constantly watch the LEDs. At the same time momentary overloads are still displayed correctly. Frontside switches include power on/off and output level for a choice of -10 d BV +4 d Bu or Hi Gain (+19 d Bu) as reference level. This unusual feature offers two advantages. First the reference level can be easily switched to match any of RMEs current interface devices from HDSP 9632 through Multiface up to the renowned ADI-8 series converters. Second the Signal to Noise ratio is optimized and the Clip-LED will exactly match the ones of the ADI-8 (2 d B below 0 d BFS). The balanced line level output signal is available at the back of the unit via 8 stereo TRS jacks. The specially developed internal hi-performance switch mode power supply lets the Octa Mic II operate in the range of 100V to 240V AC. It is short-circuit-proof has an integrated line-filter is fully regulated against voltage fluctuations and suppresses mains interference.AD-Conversion The 8-channel AD-conversion of the Octa Mic II operates at up to 192 k Hz. The digitized signal is available simultaneously at the double ADAT output (S/MUX up to 96 k Hz) and at a DB-25 connector (4 AES/EBU outputs up to 192 k Hz). The digital part can be clocked internally (master) and externally via word clock AES/EBU and SPDIF. RMEs outstanding Steady Clock(TM) ensures perfect AD-conversion as jitter on the external sync-sources is nearly completely removed. All settings are done via DIP-switches on the back of the Octa Mic D. Analog outputs and both digital outputs operate fully simultaneously. The choice of reference level affects the analog outputs only the signal/clip indication and the AD-conversion will react only to the Gain-pots.
