Overview
The Mosaic Remote Audio/Timecode Module (RIO-A) expands the advanced show-control capabilities of the system to allow analog audio or linear timecode signals from a remote source to trigger a Mosaic Show Control system. As an accessory to the Mosaic Show Controllers(MSCs) and Mosaic Show Controller X (MSCX), Mosaic Audio/Video Controller (MAVC), the RIO-A device provides an interface for stereo audio spectrum analysis or Linear Timecode (LTC) synchronization with third party show control equipment. The RIO-A also offers integrated MIDI input and output to interface with external devices using MIDI Timecode (MTC).
APPLICATIONS
• Manipulates intensity, color, and timeline playback for sound to-light effects.
• Use Linear Timecode (LTC) formats including film, PAL/EBU, NTSC, and SMPTE to synchronize your design with audiovisual or show-control equipment.
FEATURES
• Balanced Stereo audio Input
• Software adjustable gain controls
• Software configurable spectrum analyzer
• Linear Timecode (LTC) input
• Software fly-wheel error correction routines and jump support
• MIDI Timecode (MTC) input
GENERAL
• 5-year warranty
• ETL/cETL Listed
• CE Compliant
