BSS TCS-804 Dual Channel Digital Delay |
The TCS-804 is a 2-channel dual-tap or single-channel quad-tap digital delay line designed for critical speaker systems displacement and "Delay Towers" distance correction in large arenas. It can also be used as a sonically transparent, stereo time corrector for disc mastering, transfer or satellite broadcast applications.
The unit features: • A 1O5dB usable dynamic range • Time and distance displays in feet, meters, inches, and milliseconds • Minimum delay steps of 10 microseconds • Maximum of 650mS (stereo) or 1.3S (mono), expandable to 1.3S/2.6S • A 100kHz sampling rate • 12 non-volatile user programmable memories (no batteries required) • Master/slaving via MIDI; an electronics security lockout • Automatic delay-time temperature compensation via an optional probe
Input Section Impedance 10KOhms, electronically balanced Max. Input Level + 20dBu Connector XLR3-31 or equivalent Output Section Output Electronically balanced and floating Max. Output Level +20dBu into 600 Ohms Connector XLR-32 or equivalent
System Performance Conversion Method Dynamic floating window PCM Frequency Response +/- 0.5.db , 20Hz-20KHz Dynamic Range Typically 105db Distortion (THD) Less than 0.03% (20Hz-20KHZ + 10dBu) Group Delay Deviation +/-7 microsecs (20Hz-20KHz) Stereo Synchronisation +/- 0.5 microsecs User Memory Type EEPROM, no batteries required Delay Range Stereo - 75 microsec - 650 millisec (1.3 Sec optional) Mono - 75 microsec -1.3 Sec (2.6 Sec optional) Minimum Step Size 10 microsec (3.4mm at 21 degrees C) Input Level -9 to + 20dBu in 1dB steps Output Gain UNITY, Adjustable +/-6dB in 1dB steps Venue Temperature Correction Manual entry or automatic using BSS probe
