The Magnum 950, the big brother to the Magnum 550, houses a more powerful 1500W system. Supplied with remote control, 2.5 litre fluid container and again the same overheat protection as other models in the range, the 950 will give many years of maintenance-free operation.

The end result is natural, studio monitor level sound quality, ideal for proximity use and perfectly matching semi-reverberant environments. Multi-purpose in their format, MTDs and XTs are all-in-one products that can be used as a compact FOH system (with or without subwoofe
Designed for creators of interactive artworks, the Touch tool set uses powerful Academy Award-winning visual effects technology to enable digital artists to author, perform and share expressive interactive 3D visuals from their PCs. On the 'Vapor Trails' tour, Touch artist James Ellis is usi
Acrylic ear moulds were the original custom ear monitors developed by Garwood back in 1990 which remain ever-popular today. They were designed to couple with Sony Walkman-style drivers to produce a great-sounding and inexpensive ear monitor. The challenge in adapting the design for the Sennheiser drivers lay in their radically different shape, particularly the sound exit tube. A certain amount of head scratching is normal in such circumstances, and after due process it magically produced a couple of new engineering techniques. The drivers were in the moulds - no
The PC4800N amplifier delivers two channels of 800W power (20Hz to 20kHz) into 4 ohms, and a bridged mono channel of 1600W. The PC9500N amplifier offers two channels of 1500-watt power at 4 ohms (20 Hz to 20 kHz), or a single channel of 3000W, bridged mono. Total Harmonic Distortion is 0.5%. Both PC Series models feature

Until now, IQ's system communication has been based on a proprietary two-wire bus. This new second generation, however, is based on cost-effective Ethernet. Communication now travels via 100Mb Ethernet between components utilizing Crown's new TCP/IQ protocol, which increases communicatio
The AT4033/CL offers exceptional transient response and clean output signal even under the most adverse conditions, say Audio-Technica. A specially contoured, vapour-deposited gold diaphragm provides accurate reproduction of even the subtlest sounds, especially high-frequency signals not easily reproduced by conventional large-diaphragm microphones. The AT4033/CL's symmetrical housing assembly surrounds the microphone capsule, creating an open acoustical environment ideally suited for studio work where natural reproduction of off-axis sound is paramount.
Denise Turner, Audio-Technica's marketing executive said: "The launch of the original AT4033 was a very significan
Designed as a dedicated top-box, M14T is an ultra-compact, lightweight speaker designed for high quality live sound reinforcement. It features a high output mid/bass driver with excellent output and clarity in the midrange as well as a 2" compression driver with a 3" diaphragm. The mid-bass driver has a 3" voice coil with windings on the inside and outside of the voice coil former. As a result the driver has a very balanced mass with excellent clarity and stabilit
The ZMR-243 is easy to operate, designed for use in applications where precise control of different audio zones is required, such as theme parks, hotels, conference centers, pubs and entertainment venues. Housed in a 19” 1U casing, it allows full control via passive remote panels, and so can be located out of the way. It provides four stereo music inputs, two low impedance balanced microphone inputs and three stereo zone outputs balanced with preset HF and LF equalization. Any stereo zone output may be operated as two mono zones, each with remot

Under the Scheme, expenditure on approved technologies and products can qualify for 100%, up-front tax relief, delivering a significant cash-flow boost and shortening the payback period on the investment. In addition to this initial financial incentive, anyone buying products from the Pixelrange will enjoy the long-term benefits of the LED technology - with its long lamp life, low power consumption, low maintenanc
Anders Christensen, CEO of D-PAC Audio, explains: "We have recently bought a production facility in order to manufacture up to 25,000 modules each year, and as we only expect to use a few thousand on a yearly basis, we see the idea in obtaining extra volume by offering our outstanding modules as OEM."
"Several tests have proven our modules to be more powerful, more quiet and better sounding than everything else we have tried and heard," says Christensen. "In order to give potential customers a try, we have made an evaluation kit with well-des
This major new functionality means that the elements in schematic designs stay connected as you move them within the document. So, if you wish to change the look of your block schematic and move products, either by dragging the selected symbols to their new position, or by nudging them with the arrow keys, the connections follow automatically. Furthermore, Rubber-Banding operates independently of Modifiers (Snap to Grid, Snap to Object, etc.).
This is an extremely important development, says Stardraw’s marketing director, Rob Robinson: "Rubber-Banding has been at the top of our ‘Most Wanted’ list for some time,
"The expansion of our Series 1000 product range immediately after the introduction of our new Series 3000 products, shows that Vari-Lite is committed to the development of new automated lighting products and enhancements to our existing product line," said Vari-Lite president and COO Clay Powers. "Whatever designers need, we've got an automated light for the job."

The MH4 has won many admirers for its easy-to-use multi-purpose functionality, which makes it simple to configure the console for use of FOH or monitor duties, or as a single desk fulfilling both tasks. Since its launch earlier this year, the Soundcraft MH4 has won many friends, including an appearance on two stages at the Montreux Jazz Festival, touring around Europe and on the recent series of Big Brother in the UK. The MH4 has also found favour in many large churches in the USA.
