Next Generation Remote Controlled Digital Snake Building on the technology, experience and ingenuity of Roland Corporation, RSS by Roland is leading the evolution of professional and commercial audio products that can be easily integrated into specific applications. Roland Systems Group U.S. supplies the commercial and performance audio/video industries with application-specific equipment from the RSS and EDIROL video product lines. These products lines address applications for houses of worship, clubs/casinos, theaters/performing arts centers and rental and staging venues. The RSS S-4000 System digital snake solves two age-old problems of live sound and fixed installations at once: it allows you to transfer 40 channels of high-quality audio over an extremely long distance on a single lightweight cable. That means that with an S-4000 System, you don't have signal degradation issues over long cable runs and cable "pull-through" in fixed installations is a snap. As an added bonus, you can easily expand your setup with the Modular design for flexible configuration options of the RSS S-4000 System. RSS S-4000 System 32 x 8 at a Glance:
Forty 24-bit/96kHz channels over Cat5e Cable The S-4000 System brings the digital revolution to the world of audio snakes. Using computer-networking technology, the system allows you to transfer 40 channels of high-quality audio over an extremely long distance on a single lightweight Cat5e cable, or 80 channels over two Cat5e cables. The digital advantage also brings with it easy installation, low cost, portability, and pain-free expansion. Unlimited, Lossless Input Splits via Ethernet The fundamental benefit of the digital snake is that it eliminates long analog audio signal transfers and the signal degradation and noise interference that always comes along with them. This is accomplished by converting audio signals to digital data near the source, allowing them to be transferred hundreds of feet with absolutely no loss in sound quality. Additionally, since the multiple signals are transferred over a single lightweight cable, the enormous bulk of the analog snake's multichannel cable is also eliminated. Remote Contolled Preamps Each input on the SI-AD4 modules employ a newly-developed XR-1 variable gain preamp. Designed for warm and accurate sound reproduction, the XR-1 accepts input signal levels from -65 to +10dBu. Additionally, it provides an enormous amount of headroom before distortion-an incredible +28 dBu maximum input level. Each preamp's gain is controlled remotely from the S-4000R or S-4000 RCS, allowing you to optimize signal levels right at the connection interface. If you're connecting the S-4000 System to an analog mixing console, you may be wondering why you need adjustable gain at the S-4000S's inputs. After all, you have gain adjustment at the console inputs, right? Well, there are a few very good reasons to adjust the signal level at the S-4000S inputs:
S-4000R Remote Controller The S-4000R functions as a remote controller for the S-4000 System. It can be connected to either the S-4000S or S-4000H unit, whichever is most convenient for you. The S-4000R provides control over the S-4000S's input channels. This includes preamp gain adjustment, phantom power and pad on/off status, and channel linking. An eight-segment LED meter allows for precise preamp gain adjustment of the S-4000S's input channels. Additionally, the meter can be used to view signal levels from the S-4000H's audio inputs. The S-4000R also provides signal status indicators for all of the S-4000 System's 40 input channels and channel clip indicators for all of the S-4000 System's 40 input channels. Ten memory presets allow you to store and recall frequently used S-4000S input channel setups, plus, all functions that can be controlled from the S-4000R can also be controlled from a personal computer equipped with an RS-232C port(s), and running the S-4000 Remote Control Software (S-4000 RCS). Up to four S-4000 Systems can be controlled at once. RSS S-4000 System 32 x 8 Features:
