UK - K.M.E. one of Germany's leading audio manufacturer will again exhibit at PLASA 2004 launching new digital innovations. Products on show are the new 2-in-6-out digital controller DAP 26, the plug-in digital delay module DDM and the switch mode power amp SMA 2000 featuring 2 x 1000W at only 7.5kg.

The DAP 26 is a new, high performance 2-in 6-out sound system controller with a multitude of configurations (2-way stereo, 3-way stereo, 6-way mono). It features variable signal routing output options for matrix and zone configurations. Any DAP 26 configuration can be operated in real time using the navigation pad or implementing the 'K.M.E. Control-Center' software. The accurate signal processing algorithms together with AKM AD/DA converters and a sampling frequency of 96kHz deliver acoustic precision of the highest standard. Further DAP 26 units are linkable using the AES/EBU connections.

The DDM delay module has been designed as fixed installation for active system CSA 400 D, QSA 500 D and QSA 200. The digital module has two different operation modes (internal/external). The "internal" mode transmits the required delay time to the internal active speaker, the "external" mode sends the delayed signal to another speaker system. The internal line signal of the active speaker remains instantaneous.

The switch mode power amp SMA 2000 combines outreaching audio quality and maximum reliability at very low weight. The new ICS power supply design developed by K.M.E. achieves a significantly higher impulse power output by emulating the characteristics of a classic, transformer based power supply design. It provides an intelligent electrical behaviour which is additionally controlled by the audio input signal to produce maximum audio performance. The power amp has an excellent power-to-weight ratio and features several protective circuits to avoid overheating, overloading, short circuit, DC at output and power failure and is therefore suitable for extremely tough requirements of everyday touring life.

K.M.E.'s Kerst Glass says: "The digital equipment we have - the RCM remote control module, the new digital delay module, the DAP 26 - DSP with loudspeaker technology, it opens a new door in a new direction for forthcoming products."

K.M.E. can be found on stand N49.
