Concentrated functionality
Rarely does an analog mixing console offer such a concentration of functions. The Studer 928 provides a wealth of features and facilities at a cost effective price with no compro-
mise on Studers traditional quality. The 30 mm module architecture, the low-current technology (no ventilators required) and the possibility of integrating Studer modules from the existing mixing console fami-
lies make this unit extremly versatile. As a consequence, the 928 is already used in many studios around
the world as production or on-air console, in radio and TV OB vans, as a live console
in sports and concert broadcasts, or for concert and theater PA applications. n

Standard Modules - functional, logically designed elements
Mono Input Module
The input module provides a direct output that can also be switched to n-1. Individual talkback on this output is possible with the talkback key. The mono input module feeds 8 mono group and 2 stereo master busses.
The Mono Input Module features two completely separate, highquality microphone/line inputs. Signaling and monitoring can be switched between DJ or studio microphone. The microphone input is equipped with transformers. Line inputs are electronically balanced (transformer optional). A 48 V phantom supply can be switched to the mic input.
The Parametric Equalizer comprises high, low and two band passes, with adjustable center/ corner frequencies. The Q of the bandpass equalizer is switchable. The high-pass filter contains a phase inverter.
6 Mono AUX outputs are fed via single potentiometers, 2 stereo AUX outputs with level and pancontrols. Each AUX path can be derived pre or post channel fader.
The Pancontrol is connected directly to the stereo master output. The panselection can be enabled/ disabled, also by remote control.
The Main Fader is a Penny & Giles (100 mm) linear fader; it controls a high-quality VCA. Up to four VCA groups can be defined. The master faders for these groups are located in the CR and studio monitor modules. Fader start is selectable as pulse or hold function. CUE can be derived pre or post fader. A small LED bargraph will display the level before or after the equalizer or the level of the direct (n-1) output. n
Stereo Input Module
The Stereo Input Module is equipped with electronically balanced, high-level inputs (transformer optional) for line 1 and line 2.
The signal can be channel swapped via the L/R key, or switched to mono individually for each channel.
By means of a rotary control the signal to the master output can be varied from mono to expanded stereo. n
Group module
The Group Module is equipped with an additional stereo return with level and pan control and prelistening output. High-level stereo sources can be routed directly into the master channels.
In each group module a limiter/ compressor unit is installed. This can be inserted directly into the group or assigned to any input via the integrated insert patch panel.
n
Master module
The Master Module features a limiter with adjustable threshold and release time. The attack time is selectable in two steps.
The master fader of the AUX paths and the corresponding prelistening keys are also arranged on the master module.
Each of the two stereo master modules is equipped with a separately controllable mono output which can be derived before or after the output fader. n
Monitoring, Talkback
The Monitoring Module has a source selector for internal and external sources, as well as selectors for listening via headphones, monitor speakers, or near-field monitors. The cue signal can be derived either pre channel fader of the selected input module or post (solo function without influence on the mixdown).
The Talkback Module consists of a test generator, talkback control and studio monitoring control. Talkback can be routed to all AUX paths, groups, as well as masters and also into the studio and to external lines. Communication to the direct (n-1) outputs of individual inputs can be preselected directly in the corresponding input modules. The volume for the studio can be adjusted individually for two headphone sets as well as for the studio speaker. Two user-assignable keys are available for signaling.
Both units are equipped with two linear faders each which act as VCA group faders. n
