AXIA | CONSOLES 62 ELEMENT CAN A RADIO CONSOLE BE OVER-ENGINEERED? ONLY IF YOU THINK "GOOD ENOUGH" REALLY IS GOOD ENOUGH. SILVER BRONZE Building great consoles is more than punching holes in sheet metal and stufing a few switches in them. Building a great console takes time, brain-power and determination. That’s why we’ve hired brilliant engineers who are certiied “OCD”: Obsessive Console Designers, driven to create the most useful, powerful, hardest-working consoles in the world. And that description certainly its Axia’s modular Element 2.0 mixing console. Scalable from 2 to 40 faders, Element is the ultra-reliable dynamo at the center of over 3000 Axia-powered broadcast studios around the world. We launched Axia in 2003 to make digital mixing consoles — but with a twist: Axia consoles would be integrated with the routing switcher, and networked to share resources and capabilities throughout the studio complex. This intelligent network of studio devices gives your talent consoles that are more powerful and easier to use than ever. Our team of engineers blended the best ideas from old-school analog consoles with innovative new technology to produce bullet-proof boards that can actually make shows run smoother and sound better. And we invented a way to network studios, consoles and audio equipment using Ethernet. It’s called Livewire, and it’s now an industry standard. Livewire carries hundreds of channels of real-time, uncompressed audio plus synchronized control logic and program-associated data on just one skinny CAT-6 cable. And, because Axia networks are intelligent Ethernet- based routing systems, machine logic always follows source audio. Simply load a source on any fader – in any studio – and that fader’s controls are immediately communicating with the source device. Thanks to this scalable network technology, integrated router control is a standard feature of every Element. Board-ops told us they wanted a powerful console that’s still easy to use: user-friendly, but with all the power of a full-on production board. Element is! Show Proiles can recall each operator’s favorite settings with the push of a button — audio sources, fader assignments, monitor settings and more. Each jock’s Show Proile contains personalized mic processing and voice EQ settings that load every time they’re on the air (so the midday guy will stop badgering you for “just a little more low end”). There’s even a “panic button”: one key-press returns a Show Proile to its default state instantly. Powerful? You bet. Element has 4 Program buses plus 4 Aux sends and 2 Aux returns, and 16 5-channel “virtual mixer” that lets you mix multiple audio streams using virtual faders. Every voice channel has studio-grade compression, de-essing and gating courtesy of the processing experts at Omnia, plus threeband parametric EQ. There’s even built-in headphone processing to save the cost of a separate side-chain. More convenience: fully-automatic mix-minuses; one for each fader if you need it. Mix-minus settings are saved for each audio source, so that sources, backfeed and machine logic all

Axia’s Livewire Ethernet backbone makes it easy to integrate and control all kinds of different devices on the same network and those controls are right on the console, where they’re most useful. For instance, phone hybrid modules with dedicated faders to control <strong>Telos</strong> talkshow systems; there’s even a dial pad so jocks can dial, pick up, screen and drop calls without divert- ing their attention from the console. Our IP Intercom system connects to the Livewire network too; drop-in Element modules place multi-station intercom controls right at jocks’ ingertips too. Talent can now easily take broadcast-quality intercom audio directly to air with just a couple of button-presses. You can administer Element remotely, a password-protected web server lets you examine the state of the console and make con- BROCHURES AXIAAUDIO.COM/BROCHURES NRJ NETWORKS, PARIS, FRANCE SOFTWARE UPDATES AXIAAUDIO.COM/DOWNLOADS iguration changes. With our new SoftSurface companion software, you can even take direct remote control of Element from your ofice, home, or anywhere there’s an Internet connection. There’s more to building a great board than just features, of course. Consoles have to perform lawlessly 24/7, 365 days-a year, for years at a time. So Element is fabricated from thick, machined aluminum extrusions for rigidity and RF immunity. Power supplies are hardened for reliable, continuous uptime, and fan-less for silent in-studio operation. Modules are hotswappable, of course. Silky-smooth conductive-plastic faders actuate from the side, so grunge can’t get in. High-end optical rotary encoders mean no wipers to get dirty or wear out. And our avionics-grade switches are rated for more than 5 million operations. So, are Axia consoles over-engineered? You bet. Not everyone appreciates this kind of attention to detail, but if you’re one who seeks out and appreciates excellence wherever you may ind it... Element is for you.
