Arista – E-Vocal® Duo+ (Plus) Dante Products

Arista Corporation, recognized globally as a leading manufacturer of AV extenders, matrix switchers, AV MultiViewers, and related products for the AV installation and industrial markets, is pleased to introduce the E-Vocal Duo+ (Plus) Audio over IP product group. Consisting of three models, the E-Vocal Duo+ product group includes the ARS-0202-A00 analog audio to Dante® to analog audio interface, the ARS-2020-A11 dual XLR microphone to Dante interface, and the ARS-0202-B11 dual XLR microphone to Dante interface with an SFP connector Fiber interface.

The E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-0202-A00 connects one’s legacy audio gear to the Dante world. It facilitates two channels of analog audio input to be integrated into a Dante network and it also converts a Dante stream into two channels of analog audio output signal. This interface is equipped with an RJ45 copper network interface.

The Arista E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-A11 and E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-B11 are both dual XLR microphone to Dante interfaces that deliver studio quality fidelity and low noise performance for dynamic or condenser microphones. Two audio signal outputs enable Lip-Sync delay of up to 170 ms/ch (fs = 48 kHz) to synchronize the audio stream to the video stream. Both units have a built-in web-based controller for microphone gain control and Lip-Sync delay control. The E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-11 is equipped with an RJ45 copper network interface while the E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-B11 has an SFP connector for Fiber interface, which is ideal for those times when it becomes necessary to extend the connection distance.

The copper interface units (E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-0202-A00 and E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-A11) can be powered via PoE (Power over Ethernet) or 12VDC, while the Fiber-equipped E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-B11 interface is powered by 12VDC. The Arista E-Vocal Duo+ interfaces were designed for harsh stage conditions with lockable XLR and etherCON® connectors for both the audio and network connections. The E-Vocal Duo+ interfaces have rubber protection shells and rackmount brackets as optional items.

The Arista E-Vocal Duo+ interfaces offer a rich feature set. This includes lockable audio and network connections, being AES67 compliant, using high resolution 24-bit analog to digital conversion, plus dual power input options including a Power over Ethernet switch, PoE injector (802.3 af/at class 1), or DC 12V. As Dante-enabled devices, the E-Vocal Duo+ products deliver bit-perfect audio reproduction and offer super-low latency and sample-accurate synchronization across the entire network. The E-Vocal Duo+ products also make it easy to use one’s legacy audio gear with any Dante-connected system—delivering the interoperability, performance, and scalability that only networking can bring.

Paul Shu, President of Arista Corporation, commented on the company’s new E-Vocal Duo+ Dante-enabled interfaces. “The E-Vocal Duo+ interfaces offer a wealth of functionality, including analog audio to Dante and out to analog as well as two models specifically designed to accommodate both dynamic and condenser microphones. And with the E-Vocal Duo+ ARS-2020-B11 having a Fiber connector, technicians have the freedom to cover longer distances if needed. I have every confidence that audio and video technicians will find these interfaces both versatile and very beneficial.

DAS Audio – Event 26a Compact Line Array

The EVENT-26A is a symmetrical, ultra-compact, two-way powered line array system. Designed by DAS engineers to deliver stunning performance and exceptional ease-of-use, the stylish polypropylene cabinet design offers a highly portable and road-worthy system. A comprehensive range of accessories makes the EVENT-26A ideal for small to mid-size rental and installation applications.

The EVENT-26A combines two 6.5″ transducers and a single M-60 compression driver in a rugged yet lightweight polymer cabinet. The symmetric “V” shaped configuration of the cone transducers provides consistent 100º of horizontal coverage down to 200 Hz. The M-60 compression driver is coupled to an advanced waveguide design that provides control of the vertical dispersion as well as precise coupling between units when used in vertical arrays.

Powered by a two-channel Class D amplifier providing 800 Wpeak power, the amp´s rear panel includes quality Neutrik® XLR and powerCON connectors. The DAScontrolTM interface makes the preset selection for the number of units in the array both fast and simple. An onboard DSP featuring a 24-bit high-end processor handles X-over, EQ, delay, and limiter functions. The powerful FIR filtering technology incorporated in the EVENT-26A offers constant phase response which translates to transparent sound and exceptional clarity, improving the listening experience.

Streamlined deployment of EVENT-26A arrays is possible thanks to the innovative FSSTM (Fast Set Splay) rigging system developed to permit angle selection while stacked on dollies. The stainless-steel rigging hardware allows flown arrays of up to 16 units in 1º steps from 0º to 10º.

Low-frequency reinforcement for the EVENT-26A is provided by its flyable companion subwoofer the EVENT-115A.

Power comes from a class D amplifier rated to deliver 1,200 watts (peak). The 15FW4 transducer is designed to provide long-excursion and to minimize distortion. An LCD screen with the DAScontrol interface simplifies preset selection.

The IP43-rated EVENT-26A and EVENT-115A will begin shipping in February 2020. For more information, please contact your Streetwise Sales representative.
