<str<strong>on</strong>g>zirk<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> – <str<strong>on</strong>g>Perfect</str<strong>on</strong>g> <strong>on</strong>-<strong>air</strong>.<br />

When performance and reliability count:<br />

The <str<strong>on</strong>g>zirk<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> system core.<br />

A car will <strong>on</strong>ly perform as well as its engine,<br />

and a digital mixing c<strong>on</strong>sole is <strong>on</strong>ly<br />

as good as its system core. <str<strong>on</strong>g>zirk<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> features<br />

a DSP core, based <strong>on</strong> the proven DALLIS<br />

I/O system that is also used in <strong>Lawo</strong>’s<br />

large-scale mc² series mixing c<strong>on</strong>soles,<br />

and in <strong>Lawo</strong> matrices. The innovative<br />

STAR² architecture is, of course, included.<br />

Thus, <str<strong>on</strong>g>zirk<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g> not <strong>on</strong>ly benefits from the<br />

modular c<strong>on</strong>cept and high quality of these<br />

Signal processing in the system core:<br />

M<strong>on</strong>o, stereo and surround channels with:<br />

Aux send with Pre/Post switching<br />

Pan/Balance<br />

In additi<strong>on</strong>, switchable if required:<br />

Equalizer with three fully parametric bands plus high/low pass filters<br />

Dynamics unit with gate, expander, compressor, limiter<br />

Delays of up to 340ms with switchable units<br />

(metres, millisec<strong>on</strong>ds, frames)<br />

plug-in cards, but also from their c<strong>on</strong>tinual<br />

development.<br />

The system core handles routing, c<strong>on</strong>trol<br />

and central signal processing (DSP). In<br />

additi<strong>on</strong>, the core’s motherboard provides<br />

the interfaces for various c<strong>on</strong>necti<strong>on</strong>s:<br />

from desk modules and panels and external<br />

comp<strong>on</strong>ents such as VisTool, radio<br />

automati<strong>on</strong> systems or audio workstati<strong>on</strong>s,<br />

DELAY<br />

to maintenance and c<strong>on</strong>figurati<strong>on</strong> tools.<br />

If the system core is used without surface<br />

modules, the special ‘Nova17’ operating<br />

mode makes <str<strong>on</strong>g>zirk<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g>’s functi<strong>on</strong>ality available<br />

as a stand-al<strong>on</strong>e or network-capable<br />

matrix applicati<strong>on</strong>. Furthermore, the <str<strong>on</strong>g>zirk<strong>on</strong></str<strong>on</strong>g><br />

core works without a fan or PC, a feature<br />

that assures reliability and short boot<br />

times.<br />

Opti<strong>on</strong>ally, up to 384 input/output channels can be supported<br />

with the following interfaces:<br />

Analog Mic/Line (transformer or electr<strong>on</strong>ically balanced)<br />

Headph<strong>on</strong>es (including VCA interface)<br />

AES/EBU (AES3) with or without sample rate c<strong>on</strong>verter<br />

ADAT®<br />

HD/SD SDI (embedded audio)<br />

Serial data transfer (RS232, RS422, MIDI)<br />

GPIO (Opto, Relays, VCA)<br />

Opti<strong>on</strong>al: up to four MADI interfaces <strong>on</strong> the motherboard<br />
