Introduction

10-Channel stereo preamplifiers

The PRE2xx series preamplifiers are solutions for applications where a large number (up to

8) of microphones (or other mono balanced audio inputs) need to be mixed to two output

zones. The multifunctional stereo design with a total of 10 inputs allows connection for any

type of audio source such as microphones, Bluetooth devices or line level audio sources.

Channels one to eight are balanced inputs, allowing the connection of microphones or line

level audio sources with the ability of enabling 48V phantom power to each input. They

feature 3-band tone control and talk-over for priority announcements. The other two (9

and 10) inputs are unbalanced stereo line inputs allowing connection of any type of line level

audio source.

An integrated Bluetooth receiver and a front panel 3.5 mm jack offer convenient wired

or wireless connection possibilities for mobile and portable devices including laptops,

smartphones and tablets. The front panel includes a master volume control with 2-band

tone control and LED VU bar for each output.

Each input section is accommodated with input mixing dials and output selection switches.

A priority mute for each zone output suppresses all (non-priority) music sources in case of

contact closure, allowing linking autonomous alarm systems.

Front & rear panel

Front panel overview

Front panel description

Input mixing controls:

Using the input mixing controls, the individual level for each input can be adjusted. Each

input control is provided with a clip indicator LED which illuminates when the maximum level

(clipping) is almost reached. To ensure the best signal-to-noise ratio, illumination of this

indicator should only occur at peak levels. When it illuminates frequently, the channel will

be overdriven and a distorted ‘clipping’ sound will occur.

Signal routing selection buttons:

The signal routing buttons located on the right side of each input mixing control (indicated

with ‘Z1’ and ‘Z2’ for PRE220 and ‘Z1 to Z4’ for PRE240) are used for selection for routing

each input to one or both output channels. Press this button to enable the input routing to

the corresponding output. The corresponding routing indicator LED illuminates when routed.

Bluetooth (CH1):

The integrated Bluetooth receiver is mixed with channel 1 and contains a pairing button

besides the input mixing control. This allows connection of the pre-amplifier with any

supporting audio source device such as smartphone or tablet. The LED positioned beside

this button indicates the current operation mode. When non illuminating, the device cannot

be discovered by (new) Bluetooth devices. When blinking, the device is not connected but can

be discovered through Bluetooth devices, and when illuminated it is connected and doesn’t

allow pairing with another device.
