Sabine NAV360-S User Manual

ARCHITECTS’ and ENGI NE ERS’ SPECIFICATION

NAVIGATOR NAV360-S System Processor

2008

The loudspeaker controller/matrix mixer/parametric
equalizer/automatic feedback controller/compressor/limiter/
delay/crossover/signal router shall be a three input / six

output digital signal processor, programmable with the

provided Windows software, the Navigator Remote,

including linkable functions and remote programming.
The unit shall automatically sense feedback and determine

its pitch, then assign a digital notch lter to the resonating

frequency to automatically eliminate the feedback. It
shall effectively distinguish between music and feedback
and shall be operational during the program. The product

shall use ve types of user-selectable lters: parametric,
high-shelf, low shelf, xed FBX or dynamic FBX. The
user controls the parametric and shelving lters; the xed
FBX lters, controlled automatically, remain set on the
initial feedback frequencies, and the dynamic FBX lters

shall be automatically reassigned new frequencies as

feedback occurs during the program. The NAV360 shall

also function as a eight-band parametric equalizer, full-

featured compressor/limiter, multi-setting crossover, and

digital delay for speaker alignment.

The back panel will have 3-pin XLR connectors for

each input and output; power connector with bulti-in
fuse holder.

The following performance criteria shall be met:

FBX/PARAMETRIC FILTERS — Eight

independent digital notch lters controlled automatically
or parametrically from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, each switchable
between FBX xed lters, FBX dynamic lters, shelving
lters, and parametric lters4. High and low shelf lters:
user-controllable cutoff points between 20 Hz and 20
kHz, and 6 or 12 dB/octave roll-off. parametric lter
depth: user-controllable in 1 dB steps from +15 dB to

-30 dB (parametric mode), 3 dB steps from 0 dB to -40
dB (FBX mode), maximum automatic depth adjustable
from -6 to -40 dB. Filter width: user-controllable from

2.50 octave to .02 octave (parametric), 1.0 to .02 oct. (FBX1);
constant Q (lter skirts do not widen as lters get deeper).
Resolution: 1 Hz from 20 Hz to 20 kHz in FBX and
parametric mode. Time required to nd and eliminate
feedback: user-controllable from 0.1 seconds to 5 seconds
(typically 0.3 seconds).

Total number of combined filters active: user
selectable, 0-8 per output and 0-8 per input. Filters
controllable via table or graphic interface.

CROSSOVER: Two filters per output; Bessel,

Linkwitz-Reily, or Butterworth lters; 12, 24, 36, 48 dB/

octave slopes. Multiple presets and graphic editing.

COMPRESSOR/LIMITER — Threshold: +20dBu
to -20dBu in 0.5 dB steps (independently adjustable for
compressor & limiter). Ratio: 1:1 through innity. Knee:
soft to hard, in 40 steps. Attack: 0.3 to 99 mSec in 1 mSec
steps. Release: .05 to 100 msec. in .05 sec steps. Peak
limits: -20 dBu to 32 dBu in .05 dB steps.

DIGITAL DELAY — 1.47 mSec to 650 mSec in 20

microsecond steps. Edit in milliseconds, feet, or meters.

MIXER/ROUTER — All inputs patchable to all
outputs; mixer with levels levels for all inputs/outputs

PASSWORD CONFIGURATION — 4 levels

SAVE & RECALL CONFIGURATIONS — 30

user dened, 1 factory default, 1 most recent front panel
conguration (power down save).

INPUT/OUTPUT — Input impedance: balanced

10K Ohms, PIN 2 high. Output impedance: balanced
50 Ohms nominal, PIN 2 high. Input/output maximum
signal levels: balanced +20 dBu peak. Output load: 600
Ohms balanced. Bypass: true power-off bypass.

PERFORMANCE — Frequency response: 20 Hz
to 20 kHz, 0.1 dB @+20 dBu. Dynamic range: >115 dB.
Digital resolution: 24-bit, 48 KHz.

POWER — 50/60 Hz; 120V or 230V; 18W.

DIMENSIONS — 1-U rack mount; 19” x 1.75” x

8” (483 x 44 x 203 mm); Weight: 13.2 lb. (6 kg).

The unit shall be the Sabine NAV360-S Navigator
System Processor.

Options: NAV360-S-R: Ready for connection via CAT-5
cable to NAVRC100 Wall-mounted Remote Control; NAV360­S-M: Includes Mic Preamp; NAV360-S-MR: Includes Mic
Preamp and Remote Control.
