General Description
Do you have a paging and background music application that
would benefit from a low cost, one-box solution? °e
DA 26S provides all of the tools needed to serve up to six
zones. For even greater flexibility in source selection and zone
distribution, combine the DA 26S with a Rane CP52S or CP64S
music and paging preamplifier. Many existing solutions require
installers to employ separate paging preamplifier, dynamics
processor, crossover, distribution amplifier and remote-level-
control devices. °ese systems are expensive and require a lot
of wiring, yet fail to meet all of the requirements. °e DA 26S
provides all of the required features in one compact package.
°e DA 26S routes a mono program source and priority/
page source to as many as six zones. °e mono program source is
processed by an Automatic Gain Control (AGC) circuit featur-
ing adjustable target level, ratio and attack/decay.
°e priority/page input features automatic signal detection
and remote zone assignment. A means of automatically attenuat-
ing program music over a range of 0 dB to –80 dB during a page
allows mic/line mixing, talk-over or priority-replaces-program
operation.
Each of the six outputs distributes full-range, high-pass or
low-pass program music. Small bookshelf or hanging speak-
ers frequently require bass enhancement. Bass enhancement is
achieved by adding bass to the full range response or by em-
ploying a true bi-amp system. °e DA 26S provides a 24 dB
per octave Linkwitz-Riley crossover that supports both bass
enhancement schemes. Wired remote level control ports allow
independent control of music amplitude in each zone. Loudness
compensation is automatic when a remote is used. Remote level
controls do not influence the priority/page level. It is possible to
control multiple remote level ports with a single remote device.
°is allows one remote device to control the level in multiple
zones or both high-pass and low-pass outputs in a single zone.
