BACK PANEL APPOINTMENTS

Digital line input

The AES3 stereo input (XLR) accepts program sources at sample rates of 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz; 16/24-bit. Input gain is adjustable for average program levels between -5dB and -35dB, re: -20dBFS.

Analog line inputs

L/R active balanced/bridging (XLR) inputs accept program average line levels between -15dBu and +15dBu; +26dBu maximum peak level.

Line Outputs

The digital and analog line outputs can each be configured independently for flat response at 20kHz, or for 'FM' characteristics at 15kHz, both with pre-emphasis and normalized flat response.

Digital line output

The AES3 stereo output (XLR) can be adjusted between -20dBFS and 0dBFS, corresponding to 100% carrier modulation (peak). The output sample rate can be set to follow the digital or forced line input at 32kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48kHz or 96kHz. Sampling resolution is 24 bit.

Analog Line Outputs

Active balanced outputs (XLR) are adjustable between -10dBu and +24dBu (+21.5dBm), corresponding to 100% carrier modulation; source impedance is 200 ohms.

Composite/MPX output

Two unbalanced outputs (BNC) are independently adjustable between 0.8V p-p and 8V p-p (+11dBu), corresponding to 100% carrier modulation; the source impedance is 75 ohms. The pre-emphasis can be set to 75μs, 50μs or OFF.

RDS input

The BNC (Unbalanced/bridging) input accepts a 57kHz RDS sub-carrier at any level between 0.5V p-p and 5.0V p-p for a typical injection level of 5% of total carrier modulation.

19kHz RDS Sync

When RDS is enabled, the synchronization output (BNC) provides a TTL-compatible 5V p-p square wave at 19kHz pilot frequency; 75-ohm source

Network port

An RJ45 jack accepts TCP/IP network connections for the configuration and remote operation of DAVID IV.

Headphone jack (front panel)

A quarter-inch headphone jack (TRS) allows the user to monitor the processed program audio. A volume control next to the jack adjusts the listening level.

AUDIO PROCESSING FEATURES

High Pass Program

A user-programmable high-pass filter attenuates subacoustic noise that could compromise modulation efficiency. The filter is adjustable between 20Hz and 65Hz.

AGC

The non-invasive ACG with a capture/correction radius of ±18dB. The positive AGC gain can be truncated to any value between +18dB and 0dB; the AGC correction rate is programmable.

Stereo enhancement

This double-action utility effectively expands the sound stage for the stereo program and the centerchannel component ʻsoloʼ independently.

5-Band ʻMultipressorʼ

The program audio is divided into five frequency bands. Each band provides both dynamic compression and adjustable static gain to allow fixed equalization and other control ʻsignatureʼ of the program's audio.

Bass boost

The sub-bass program frequencies are subjected to independent dynamic compression, expansion, selective clipping and filtering for both static ʻRumbleʼ and dynamic ʻPunchʼ control of low-end components.

PIPP Peak Limiter

Inovonicsʼ exclusive polar peak processing ensures optimal modulation of the FM carrier or another delivery channel.

ITU multiplex power control

The Peak Limiter section can be optionally configured to control the r.m.s. power of the composite multiplex signal to meet the European ITU-R standard. 

Adaptive Pre-Emphasis

Fast HF limiting and clipping with distortion elimination are best used to provide independent control of the amplitude of the program frequencies subject to the FM preemphasis curve. This helps preserve program brightness and clarity despite the native power bandwidth constraints of FM broadcasting.

Composite clipping

At the user's discretion, up to 3dB of clipping can be applied to the composite/basic band signal. Clipping is performed prior to injecting the stereo driver and RDS subcarrier.

HD Radio Delay

The composite/MPX output of DAVID IV can be delayed between 1ms and 9.999 seconds in 1ms increments, compared to the analog and digital program line outputs when set to 20kHz (Flat) output mode. When set in FM mode(s), the line outputs are also subject to the programmed delay.

Controlling the software

The IP network port and the supplied software allow the remote configuration and operation of DAVID IV over a local network or the Internet using any Windows® PC (XP or later).

THE USER INTERFACE

Front panel

A graphic display on the front panel and a scroll wheel allow simple, menu-driven in-situ setting and operation of DAVID IV. LED bar displays indicate input/output levels and audio processing action.

Software Control

The IP network port and the supplied software allow the remote configuration and operation of DAVID IV over a local network or the Internet using a Windows® PC (XP or later).

Preset processing

25 factory presets are available and optimized for the world's most popular formats, and another 20 custom user settings can be easily saved and shared between station networks.
