AIRMATE-12
the most personal options,
inside a analog radio mixer
We designed the Airmate-12 to fulfill the requirements for a high grade radio production mixer. This console is the reliable workhorse for the self-op production D.J. that needs an internal two Telephone Hybrid and USB connection to the PC (e.q. for streaming to the web) and the options of a VoIP or Bluetooth channel and an AES output.
A heavy duty 19" rack mounted RF shielded chassis houses 12 vertical triple input modules giving flexibility rarely found in a mixer of this type.
Eight input channels with high quality balanced microphone inputs on XLR and two stereo line level inputs on Cinch (RCA) connectors. Every Mic input has an insert for signal processors.
And… every line level line B input can be converted into a phono (record player) channel by simply fitting an optional stereo R.I.A.A. equalized phono pre-amp.
front panel
The Airmate-12 model has 10 balanced mic inputs with +48 phantom with insert,12 stereo line inputs, 2 USB and 2 Telephone Hybrids.
Channel 5 and 6 have Mic/Line and USB interface to transfer audio from and to your PC. Channel 7 and 8 have, apart from the stereo line input, also RJ-11 connectors to interface with a old fashioned POT and a Telephone appliance to dial the number you want to reach.
High quality built in Hybrids and direct Connection and Talkback buttons in the Hybrid channels makes a conversation with listeners very easy.
With the Telco Send (level to the caller) and Telco Gain (level coming from the caller) all levels can be easy adjusted.
You can also choose for the option to include VoIP or Bluetooth on channel 7 and 8.
Fader start can be from the ON switch or FADER. Fader start also switches on
ON-AIR lights.
There is a 3 band Equalizer on channel 1-10. The stereo Aux send can be set pre or post fader. All mic inputs have low cut jumpers. A clean feed send is available for external analog and digital Hybrids.
back panel
On the back panel you can find two USB connectors to control your USB channels by your computer.
Very simple; your computer will see a new USB device when connecting the Airmate-12 on the moment you connect the unit to your computer.
It's also possible to include VoIP or Bluetooth channel(s) inside the Airmate-12 in stead of the standard POT channels. In that case you will get an USB connector on the place of the RJ11, so you can connect your VoIP channel by your computer with any VoIP software.
All in and output connections are on standard XLR / Cinch and Jack connectors.
all available options inside the Airmate
AES-EBU
Its possible to order an digital outputs on your Airmate USB. The master AES/EBU XLR’s will be your digital in and outputs to go fully digital to the transmitter or other broadcast devices connected to the Airmate USB.
There are 2x 3 pin male XLR connectors on the backpanel of the Master, normally providing you with ground compensated balanced analog outputs that give the main program stereo signal. But now these are converted into a balanced digital AES/EBU standardized output signal (XLR male) and... as a bonus you get also the possibility for accepting digital AES/EBU signals on the second XLR (female).
The analog audio signal is always available on the 2 jacks
above the left digital XLR output.
THIS OPTION NEEDS TO BE KNOWN BEFORE PRODUCTION OF THE MIXER. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE TO BUILD-IN THIS OPTION ON A LATER MOMENT, AS THE MIXER NEEDS A DIFFERENT KIND OF MASTER BOARDS
RIAA Pre-Amp
It's also possible to add on all ten channels of your Airmate-12
unit our RIAA pre-amp board.
This will give you the option to connect the old fashion record player to the mixer, so good old times can come back to live on a new day piece of broadcast equipment.
These board can be purchased also on a later moment inside our webshop and are very simple to connect inside the mixer on one of the boards by yourself.
VoIP
We also have dedicated VoIP channels available for the AIRMATE-12, or a combination of one TELCO module and one VoIP module.
If you still want to use a classic analogue or digital Hybrid we have designed a cleanfeed output on pin 1-4 of the RJ11 connector.
You can return the Hybrid signal on the line input of the VoIP module.
ITS ALSO POSSIBLE TO PURCHASE THIS RIAA PRE-AMP ON AN LATER MOMENT AND BUILD-IN BY YOURSELF. YOU CAN PURCHASE THIS BOARD INSIDE OUR

Bluetooth
It's also possible to choose on Input module 11 and/or 12 a Bluetooth Hybrid module with line input.
This high quality Telephone Hybrid Bluetooth V5.0 circuit connects you directly to a Bluetooth device and accepts Bluetooth calls and play/pause music directly on your Airmate-12 console.
On the back of each Bluetooth Hybrid/Line channel on the Airmate-12 unit (channel 11 & 12), you will find three connectors fot the Bluetooth-Hybrid/Line modules, two unbalanced stereo line RCA Cinch connectors for connecting CD players, iPods or any play-back devices as long as they are line level equipment.

overview
The Airmate-12 has the usual stereo faders, stereo Aux send and return, monitor master with "follow phones" and a phones output with a split control function.
There is a balance control to continuously adjust the volume between main output and stereo Cue signal.
In addition, there is a special Radio On-air/production section featuring; Selfop switching to automatically cut control room level when the D.J. mic is active; a Clean feed output to also drive
an external Telephone Hybrid for talk shows and interviews, if you need more Hybrid channels than the 2 built in ones; a special announcer output that normally follows main output but can be
switched so that the main output, or any cue signal that is selected, can be heard when in the "follow phones" mode.
A large Talkback switch activates the built-in electret talkback microphone for easy communication with the Clean-feed output, Aux output and/or Announcer output.
