M2A-FM Off-Air Analogue FM Modulation Monitor HD Radio™ Ready.
M2A-FM Off-Air Analogue FM Modulation Monitor HD Radio™ Ready
The M2A-FM includes a sensitive yet selective synthesized FM preselector with 20 presets so you can quickly monitor other stations off the air. A high level input with built-in attenuator lets you connect directly to a forward power RF port for greatest accuracy. RBDS is decoded and shown on the M2A’s Vacuum Florescent Display (VFD). The M2A-FM comes complete with opto-isolated alarm outputs for audio peak, audio program, carrier loss and RBDS, with flexible settings for level and duration.
In addition to its accuracy and features, the M2A-FM gives you audiophilegrade Class-A biased audio outputs, so you can precisely monitor and adjust your processing. In addition to L and R analog outputs, the M2A-FM has a full-time digital output, so you can feed your AES monitoring chain, and a front panel headphone jack powered for uncompromised, full-quality audio.This optional package for the M2A-FM modulation monitor offers Ethernet Remote Control with DaySequerra's Remote Dashboard™ software, a proprietary PC-based application that gives you 50 station scanning, remote control monitoring, logging and alarms with E-mail alarm notification.
