IP-12 Digital Radio Console
The IP-12 offers a great way for a small to medium radio operation to enter the world of networked audio. Tapping into the power of WheatNet-IP Intelligent Network technology through the use of the included ip88cb Console Audio BLADE, it’s a perfect low-cost, small-footprint solution.
The IP-12 starts with a 12-fader control surface. Each of the 12 input modules is equipped with an LED source name display and an A/B source selector whose sources can be set via a rotary encoder in the master section. Each input module has access to four program busses and has cue and talkback switches. A 100mm long-throw fader and lighted channel ON/OFF switches round out the module. The master section offers control room, studio, and headphone controls with source selection, and an onboard headphone jack and amplifier. Timer controls, a master talkback button, and a built-in cue speaker with volume control are provided. There are four event switches and six programmable buttons available for user functions. The meter bridge has three stereo pairs of bright 30-segment horizontal LED bar graph meters, as well as an on-board timer with controls located in the master section.
The IP-12 control surface connects via Ethernet to its audio engine, the Wheatstone WheatNet-IP ip88cb Console Audio BLADE. A powerful 1RU device containing the console’s digital signal processing, input, output, and logic circuitry, the engine has no fans and may be located either next to the console or at a remote location.
The IP-12 console is designed to interface seamlessly with the Wheatstone WheatNet-IP Intelligent Network. Learn more about WheatNet-IP, Wheatstone’s Audio-over-IP networking solution, at the Wheatstone Radio web site.
