Focusrite - REDNET-R1

Description

The desktop remote controller that supercharges every Red interface

RedNet R1 is a desktop remote controller that unleashes the power of Focusrite Red interfaces. It's designed for professionals who need to adapt their audio configurations quickly to suit the ever-increasing demands of the studio environment. Combine, select and switch audio from any conceivable source to a multitude of common (or user-defined) monitoring environments, and control large groups of speakers from a single set of controls. RedNet R1 is also a Dante-enabled talkback unit, with a powerful headphones output and built-in talkback mic, making it the ideal studio partner.

Features
* RedNet R1 combined with Focusrite Red interfaces are the first Dante, Pro Tools | HD and Thunderbolt interface system with a source selector and monitor controller
* Supports a maximum of eight source groups, each of up to 12 channels per source, to a maximum of 32 total channels.
* Supports up to 12 monitor output channels formatted from mono through to 7.1.4 surround
* Flexible monitor controls include level, preset level selection and lock, plus dim, mute and a variety of solo modes
* A/B switch for switching between monitoring setups
* Up to four fold-down presets allow fast switching for checking downmixes
* Talkback functionality provides four destination groups when used with a Red interface, or a single talkback group when used with other Dante devices
* Built-in internal microphone, or users can connect their own via the rear-panel XLR
* Two LCDs display highly accurate level metering of the outputs, sources and headphone outputs, and give visual cues for navigating menus
* High-fidelity headphone output can take its source from a multitude of analogue or digital locations
* RedNet Control software with hardware focused workflow is designed for quickly setting up simple or complex configurations
* Quarter-inch jack footswitch input socket for talkback management, LFE muting and more
* Powered via Ethernet (using the PoE standard), or using the supplied DC power supply
