Waves eMotion LV1 Digital Live Mixing Console
Waves Audio has introduced the eMotion LV1 mixer , a live digital mixing console that provides real-time audio mixing for FOH , monitor , and broadcast engineers .
Based on Waves SoundGrid technology , each of the eMotion LV1 software mixer ’ s channels has its own plug-in rack capable of running up to eight Waves and third-party plug-ins . This allows users to mix live with hundreds of instances of their chosen plug-ins , all running inside the mixer itself . All plug-in presets and chains saved in the eMotion LV1 can be shared with the Waves MultiRack and StudioRack plug-in hosts , allowing engineers to move easily between live and studio environments .
The mixer ’ s channel strip – its standard EQ , filters , and dynamics processing – is provided by Waves eMo plug-ins : the eMo D5 Dynamics , eMo F2 Filter , and eMo Q4 Equalizer . The eMotion LV1 comes in three configurations : 64 , 32 , or 16 stereo / mono input channels . For more information , contact Waves Audio : 865-909-9200 , www . waves . com .
Meyer Sound LINA Line Array Loudspeaker & 750-LFC Low Frequency Control Element
Meyer Sound has released the LINA linear line array loudspeaker and companion 750-LFC low frequency control element . They are the smallest and lightest products in the LEO series .
The self-powered LINA loudspeaker measures 20.27 in . wide and weighs 43 lbs . It features new drivers and an updated amplifier and signal processing package to conform with the LEO family design . Compared to MINA , the newly-designed class D amplifier has greater efficiency and an upgraded power supply enables higher peak output . The 3-in . HF compression driver incorporates a new magnet structure first used in the Leopard line array loudspeaker for reduced distortion . Low-frequency distortion from the dual 6.5-in . woofers is reduced compared to MINA , aided by new internal venting and baffling to optimize performance .
In most applications , LINA compact line array loudspeakers will be integrated with the companion 750-LFC low-frequency control element for extending the bass performance across its operating frequency range of 36 Hz to 125 Hz . The 750-LFC houses a 15-in ., dual voice coil long excursion driver along with a two-channel , open loop class D amplifier and signal processing .

Lectrosonics Duet Digital Wireless Monitor System
Lectrosonics has introduced the Duet digital wireless monitor ( IEM ) system . The system consists of the M2T dual-stereo half-rack transmitter and M2R diversity belt pack receiver . The Duet covers the UHF frequencies of 470-608 MHz in a single range , uses digital modulation for transmission , and can accept analog or Dante digital inputs .
The M2T half-rack transmitter houses two independent stereo transmitters , allowing for up to four stereo or dual-mono transmissions in one rack space . The audio inputs can be individually configured to be analog or Dante compatible . The analog input connectors are full-size XLR / TRS combo types for balanced line level analog signals while the input preamp circuits use a special balanced amplifier with very high common mode rejection to minimize hum and noise .
The M2R bodypack receiver employs advanced antenna diversity switching during digital packet headers . The 24-bit digital audio stream guarantees high resolution sound quality with wide dynamic range , low noise floor , and solid stereo image .
