The ASL 830 table top speaker station
Germany/Netherlands - This week's ProLight&Sound exhibition sees advanced digital and analogue intercom system manufacturer, Netherlands-based ASL, display a selection from its new range of digital products including the DS 4000 M Master Matrix, DS 1640 19 inch rack mount Speaker Station, DS 290 2-channel Beltpack, two of its line of four Tabletop Speaker Stations - the DS 830 and DS 2430 - as well as a variety of its well-established analog intercom systems.

ASL's Digital Intercom systems provide efficient, reliable communication systems for the most demanding live production and event management applications, says the company.

The DS 4000 M Master Matrix is the central element of a basic ASL Digital Intercom system for up to 40 users and can be expanded to accommodate up to 240 users by linking up to six DS 4000 M or DS 4000 S units.

The DS 1640 16-channel Speaker Station provides comprehensive and flexible communication facilities for users at key command locations. Housed in a compact 1U frame, the DS 1640 enables instant talk and listen access to 16 separate user groups. With the addition of the optional DS 2040 20-channel Extension Panel, this capability extends to 36 groups.

The DS 290 Beltpack offers all the features expected in any high-quality 2-channel unit: separate Talk, and call buttons, separate volume controls, menu button, separate activity indicators, and a factory option for use with binaural headsets.

The DS 830 (first seen at London's PLASA Show in 2009) and the newly revealed DS 2430 tabletop speaker station are an 8-channel and 24-channel unit respectively, each mounted in a smartly styled 3U cabinet.

"During previous trade shows and demonstrations, we received a lot positive feedback from our end users and distributors," says Susan McLohon, ASL Intercom's director of sales and marketing. "We also received a few additional wishes and suggestions which have now been implemented in our ConfigurIT software, making this simple, easy-to-use graphical user interface for configuring ASL Digital Intercom systems even better."
