The Cloud 46-120MEDIA is a versatile four-zone, rack-mounting (2U) audio mixer amplifier combined with an integral digital media player. Reliable and compact, it combines a self-contained source of background music with microphone paging and power amplification (4 x 120 W) for up to four zones in a single unit. It is suitable for use in many types of premises, such as pubs, restaurants, bars, clubs and other entertainment locations, and also leisure and fitness centres, shops, offices, hotels, etc. The 46-120 has all of the features and facilities of the 46-120MEDIA, but without the internal digital media player. It is ideal for any application where a powerful and versatile multi-zone mixer amplifier is required. Both models have six stereo line inputs and two microphone inputs. Any one of the music sources may be user-selected, and mixed with the microphone inputs. Phantom power is available at the mic inputs, and one mic input can be configured either as a paging mic input, or as an analogue telephone system interface (an isolating transformer may be inserted by internal jumpers), permitting paging announcements to be made from telephone extensions (providing the system uses a compatible PBX). Each line and mic input has its own preset sensitivity control on the rear panel, and each mic input additionally has HF/LF EQ adjustment to optimise the inputs for greatest clarity. Line 6 input may be set to have priority over any other selected music source in Zone 1, to facilitate connection of a jukebox, digital sound store or similar device. The priority feature has selectable release times, to allow a smooth return to the original music source. On the 46-120MEDIA, the internal media player may be selected as the Line 1 source. It can play MP3 and WMA files directly from a USB device or SD memory card. All standard data rates and sampling frequencies are supported. The mixer amplifiers have four mono zone outputs. On both models, each output has a 120 W power amplifier suitable for low-impedance loads. Alternative versions (the 46-120T and 46-120TMEDIA) are available with per-channel transformers (Model CXL-46T) fitted internally to allow 100/70 V-line systems to be driven. Transformers may also be retro-fitted to any or all channels of the standard versions, or individually by-passed in the ‘T’ versions. Pre-power stage outputs (0 dBu, unbalanced) are provided for Zones 1 and 2. EQ cards to suit popular installation speakers from various manufacturers may be fitted to any or all outputs. A transformer-isolated auxiliary output is also available which may be used as an interface to telephone MOH systems, or as a utility output to drive a local rack monitor or an induction loop amplifier. This output may be selected by internal jumper to either follow Zone 1’s selected music source summed with Mic 1, be permanently fed with any one of the music sources, including the media player in the 46-120MEDIA. Separate rear panel preset controls are provided to set the music and Mic 1 levels at this output. The front panel provides separate user controls for adjusting the level of each mic input, music source selection and music level, for each zone. Each zone has a clip limiter to prevent excessive audio levels; CLIP LEDs illuminate when the limiting is active. Preset controls for HF and LF EQ adjustment of each zone output are also fitted. The front panel of the 46-120MEDIA also has a socket for a standard SD memory card, and a USB port for connection of external data drives or other media. A conventional set of “transport” buttons allows Start and Stop, Next and Previous Track/File, and selection of Random and Repeat modes.
