These products are complemented by loudspeakers from d&b audiotechnik, together with digital mixing consoles from Digidesign, and Roland RSS digital multicores and consoles. Completing the product line-up are Telex and RTS intercom systems. Orbital is also presenting its Noise at Work assessment service for theatres, production companies and venue managers.
The Da-Cappo product range includes the DA-12 single-ear microphone and the DA-04 lapel microphone, plus the award-winning DA-15 single-ear microphone with an in-ear monitor piece. Manufactured in Australia, all feature Da-Cappo's tiny European-designed microphone capsule, which measures a discreet 2.5mm in diameter.
Reflecting the small size, affordable pricing and water resistance of the Da-Cappo Micro Microphones is Zaxcom's just-announced TRX900LT digital wireless audio transmitter. Combining totally digital transmission with recording and remote control functions - for live performance or broadcast - the TRX900LT features a strong, impact-resistant nylon polymer casing, protecting the electronics from both corrosion and water damage.
The CSC Ver. 3 merges timeline-based graphical editing facilities with cue-list methodology and external triggering, to become a sophisticated and intuitive package for the control of sound effects and cues. Sound designers can mix and layer complex WAV file sequences, shifting tracks in time with each other, while manipulating levels and output destinations using the live mixer and routing modules.
Among the intercom systems on show from HM Electronics (HME) is the DX121 One-to-One Digital Wireless Intercom System, which provides flexible wireless connectivity by plugging into a standard intercom station or belt-pack headset jack, or by connecting to a matrix intercom system via its four-wire interface.
