M10 Models and Options

M10 Models and Options

There are 3 basic M10 models.

Each model has identical monitoring facilities, but a different number of inputs and record inserts. As the number of inputs and inserts grow, some extra features become available and the size of the control panels also increases.

Between these 3 models, we can accommodate the vast majority of your mastering needs.

The three models are:

• M10-3AI (M10 with 3 analogue inserts)
• M10-7AI (M10 with 7 analogue inserts)
• M10-11AI (M10 with 11 analogue inserts)

This table shows you the difference between the 3 basic models:

Feature Set	Consoles
	M10-3AI	M10-7AI	M10-11AI
Number of Stereo Analogue Machine Inputs	1	2	2
Number of Surround Analogue Machine Inputs	1	3	3
Number of Stereo Digital Machine Inputs	3	4	4
Number of Surround Digital Machine Inputs	1	2	2
Number of Stereo Analogue Record Inserts	3	7	11
Number of Surround Analogue Record Inserts	0 or 3	0 or 3	0 or 3
Number of Stereo Digital Record Inserts	3	4	4
Number of Surround Digital Record Inserts	0	3	3

Allows Stereo Converter Pooling?		√	√
Number of Control Panels	2	3	3

 Note that you can use the surround machine inputs or inserts as stereo ones if you need to.

 In addition for each console, you can specify any of these options:

• -AJ: 3 analogue surround inserts - turn 3 stereo inserts into surround ones. Insert in any order.
• -TP:  dual stereo trimmer module and MS controller. For pre and post level control and MS manipulation. This module also can mix parallel inserts together
• -DA: our excellent internal DACs, ideal for monitoring or recording conversion
• -AD: our equally excellent ADCs, ideal for recording conversion
• -BM: true bass management for additional subwoofers, mono or stereo
• -DS: digital speaker output for driving digital speakers
• -VU: stereo analogue VU meters, with built in attenuator for correct operation. Available in 2RU or standard front panel package
• -TB: stereo talkback module, for talkback mix or replace of stereo cue feeds
• -GP: GPIO control panel to send and receive up to 8 contacts
• -CN: connector kits, Dsubs, XLR patchbays, or snakes
• -KT: mounting kits, wooden pods, 19" mounting or mount in studio furniture

Beyond these options we have a full custom department that can modify an M10 to be virtually anything you want!
