DIGITAL MATRIX MIXER

DESCRIPTION

The TOA M-9000 Series Digital Matrix Mixer features a
compact design that fits in a two rack space package. The
versatile new Mixer is ideal for multi-zone paging, music
distribution and room-combining applications.
The M-9000 includes eight module ports allowing designers to
easily configure custom systems with up to eight mic/line inputs
and eight outputs. The M-9000 chassis has two channels of
built-in digital signal processing (DSP) with ten band parametric
EQ, compressor, eight level ducking and more. Input and
output modules provide additional DSP.
Two discrete operation modes, "Mixer" and "Matrix", allow the
M-9000 to be used in both simple mixing and complex multi­zone paging applications. Versatile features include telephone
zone paging, automatic microphone mixing and ambient noise
control.
Modules include the D-001T dual channel mic/line input
module, T-001T dual channel line output module, ZP-001T
telephone access zone paging module, C-001T control
expansion module, and AN-001T Ambient Noise Control
module. Accessories include the AN-9001 ceiling/wall-mount
microphone, ZM-9001 and ZM-9002 remote panels, and
SS-9001 4-zone speaker selector.

Remarks

Each pair of Inputs 1 and 8, 2 and 7, 3
and 6, and 4 and 5 is the analog inputs
of ADC (Analog-Digital Converter).
So, when a digital input module such as
the D-001T is inserted into Slot 1, for
example, the digital input selector DIS1
is switched over to the DIGITAL position,
thereby disabling the use of analog
Inputs 1 and 8.
Consequently, Slot 8's analog input
(AIN) cannot be used.
Likewise, when Slot 2 is occupied by the
D-001T, Slot 7's analog input cannot be
used; and when Slot 3 is occupied, Slot
6's analog input cannot be used.
