QSC introduces RAVE/s-24, an enhanced version of its digital audio transport system. The RAVE/s-24 provides 24-bit/48kHz A/D and D/A converters, Variable Persistence (permanently stores configuration parameters) and the ability to safely parallel audio outputs for redundant operation. These new features are the result of ongoing enhancements to both the QSC hardware and the CobraNet protocol.
The new RAVE/s-24 models now feature 24-bit audio I/O to provide better signal-to-noise performance. To accommodate the additional bandwidth of 24-bit digital audio, a CobraNet bundle can be configured via an SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) browser to transmit up to seven channels of 24-bit audio as opposed to the default configuration of eight channels of 20-bit audio.
With the RAVE/s-24 and CobraNet's Variable Persistence feature, Management Interface (MI) variables can now be saved into permanent memory so they are retained at power on. In addition to defining a 24-bit network, you can also custom configure, route and monitor a number of MI parameters including changing network bundle assignments and conductor priority levels, as well as audio matrix switching capabilities using an SNMP browser.
When using two RAVE analog output units in a redundant network with one as Master and the other as Slave, it is now possible to "Y" (or combine) their outputs to provide a single audio signal to the destination audio device. This new capability eliminates the need for additional hardware to mix the outputs of the two units.
