Blackmagic Monitoring Rack Unit with 10G Ethernet input for SMPTE-2110 IP video, XLR for balanced analogue audio, HiFi and AES/EBU

Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G G3 is a powerful audio monitor that has amazing sound quality in a tiny 1RU size!
The design is dominated by a large audio meter with accurate ballistics that can be changed between various audio metering standards.
There's a 12G-SDI input for monitoring audio from professional video equipment.
Plus the new model includes a 10G Ethernet SMPTE-2110 IP video input so you can connect to IP broadcast systems without an external converter.
It also includes traditional balanced analog XLR, HiFi and AES/EBU audio inputs too!
There's even an HDMI video output so you can monitor using large screen TV's or computer monitors!

Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G gives you incredibly big sound in only 1 rack unit size!
The audio monitor includes a very high powered amp so you can get the volume you need for clear audio monitoring in noisy environments such as live events.
The secret is the dual subwoofer design that has the acoustic power to create rich deep bass sounds even within the limited rack size.
The digital processor also adjusts multiple frequency bands to get a smooth flat frequency response.
All this adds up to an incredible audio monitoring solution with amazing sound, but with a small size that fits into small broadcast trucks, fly away kits, transmission racks and control rooms.

° Precision Audio Metering
The amazing audio meters on Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G have real analog style ballistics that correctly conform to audio meter standards.
The secret is that each audio meter segment has an independent RGB LED which can be changed to any color required for different meter standards.
Plus each segment is independently machined and isolated, so no light bleeds between segments.
The meters can be changed between VU -20dBFS and -18dBFS, PPM EBU -20dBFS and -18dBFS, PPM BBC -20dBFS and -18dBFS, Loudness EBU +9 and +18 plus Loudness in K-weighting LUFS +9 and +18 scale.

° Backlit Controls and LCD for Monitoring
The front panel of Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G includes a range of controls.
Plus, you get more than audio monitoring because the built in LCD lets you monitor the 12G-SDI and 2110 IP video inputs.
The LCD features additional status such as the input type selected, the video standard and the selected embedded audio pair from the video input.
The front panel also features a smooth headphone/speaker volume control.
There are solo buttons to help you listen to either left or right audio.
Plus the arrow keys let you select up and down the embedded audio channels.
