MTX Series Matrix Processor

Zentrale Verwaltung mehrerer Sound-Systeme von einem einzigen PC aus

Beim MTX-MRX Editor handelt es sich um eine Software, die speziell für die Einrichtung und Steuerung von Sound-Systemen unter Verwendung von Sound-Prozessoren aus der MTX- und MRX-Baureihe geschaffen wurde. Das Programm übernimmt den Mix der Audiosignale von Mikrofonen, CDs, MP3s und WAV-Dateien, kann die Inhalte in verschiedenen Beschallungszonen ausgeben, bietet eine Timer-Funktion zur Wiedergabe von Musik und Ansagen und noch viele weitere Möglichkeiten. Mit dem MTX-MRX Editor erhalten Sie eine leistungsstarke Software, die es Ihnen auf einfache Art und Weise ermöglicht, Klänge von einem einzigen Computer aus zu steuern und zu verteilen, wenn diese für die Wiedergabe in voneinander unabhängigen Beschallungszonen in einem Geschäft oder einer anderen Einrichtung vorgesehen ist.

Darüber hinaus ist es in Version 3.2 beispielsweise möglich, für Anwendungsgebiete wie Freizeitparks und Einkaufszentren mit einem einzigen PC mehrere Bereiche getrennt zu steuern.

The MTX-MRX Editor software facilitates sound system design with a workflow that simulates standard installation procedure. An easy-to-use wizard lets you start by arranging the devices to be used in the desired layout, then processing components can be added wherever needed. MTX series matrix processors, EXi8 input expanders, EXo8 output expanders, XMV series power amplifiers, and DCP digital control panels can be added according to the needs and scale of the application. The MTX-MRX Editor provides comprehensive, intuitive tools for designing sound systems from input to output.

A Feedback Suppressor or FBS, is a function that prevents the unpleasant acoustic feedback that occurs when sound from a speaker is picked up by a mic and reamplified.

MTX features two types of FBS, Fixed and Dynamic. Fixed is ideal for installations where the microphones do not move and where the problem frequencies remain the same. If microphones are constantly moving then Dynamic FBS is more suitable as it can constantly update the settings to eliminate feedback.

AGC (Auto Gain Controller) is a function that automatically compensates the gain according to the input level, keeping a constant output level for an incoming signal whose level is changing. This can be very useful when there are people speaking at different levels or there are background music sources at different levels and there is no technician available to make manual adjustments. The AGC will smooth the output levels making the listener's experience more pleasurable.

1) When no one is talking

When no one is talking, the input level on all microphones is lowered, and the gain levels are set uniformly. At this time, rather than muting each microphone, the gain is distributed between three microphones, so that the total gain remains constant.

2) When one person is talking

When one person speaks, the gain of that microphone instantly rises to 0 dB, and the gain of the other two microphones is lowered. The same thing happens when a different person speaks.

3) When multiple people are speaking

When two people speak simultaneously, the gain level is automatically distributed between the two microphones so that the total gain remains constant, and the gain of the remaining microphone is lowered.

A Priority Ducker is a function used to automatically attenuate a zone's output level by a specified amount when the signal from a separate sound source exceeds its threshold. For example, it could be used to reduce the background music level when important emergency announcements are made so as to maximise intelligability.

An ANC or Ambient Noise Compensator will adjust system gain to compensate for fluctuating background noise levels. A typical example would be at a party when the ambient noise becomes so loud that music or announcements can no longer be heard. The ANC will raise the system volume to compensate.
