LA Audio Electronic MS424 is a 4 channel 1 into 4 Unity Gain Active Microphone Splitter in a compact 1U self powered case. It has 4 separately floating outputs on XLR connectors, each with its own transformer isolated circuitry. With the LA Audio Electronic MS424 you can create multiple feeds from a single set of microphones without experiencing signal degradation. The unity gain design means that you can easily integrate it into existing systems without the need for time-consuming recalibration. The front panel provides access to outputs 3 and 4, as well as phantom power switching with phantom presence LED, and Pad switching for line level signals. Each of the 4 channels has an electronically balanced input, which may be optionally transformer balanced, and four independently buffered floating outputs on XLR connectors.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW
The MS424 is a 4 channel 1 into 4 Unity Gain Active Microphone Splitter in a compact 1U self powered case.
The MS424 is designed for applications where multiple feeds are required from one set of microphones without
the signal degradation experienced with most passive splitting solutions. The Unity Gain design philosophy
allows simple integration into existing systems without the need for lengthy recalibration.
Each of the MS424 channels has an electronically balanced input, which may be transformer balanced as an
option, and four independently transformer buffered floating outputs on XLR connectors. Output one of each
channel may be linked directly to the input via a rear panel switch. The unit may also be configured, by way of
internal links, to feed 8, 12 or 16 outputs from any one input, allowing the MS424 to be used for press box
applications.
The front panel of the MS424 gives access to outputs 3 and 4 as well as phantom power switching with
phantom presence LED, and Pad switching for line level signals. The inputs and outputs 1&2 are grouped on
the rear panel together with the output 1 Link switches.
The MS424's internal power supply makes it ideally suited to smaller installations where it becomes highly cost
effective when compared to externally powered alternatives.

ARCHITECTS & ENGINEERS SPECIFICATIONS
The Microphone Splitter shall be a 4 channel unit in a 1U case with an internal power supply. Each channel
shall feed 4 separate transformer isolated outputs from one input. The unit shall operate at Unity Gain for ease
of installation.
The inputs shall be electronically balanced with the option to fit input balancing transformers. The outputs shall
be independently buffered and transformer balanced as standard. The unit shall allow internal reconfiguration
to feed 8,12 or 16 outputs from any input. Additionally output one of each channel shall be linkable to the input
by means of a rear panel switch.
Each channel shall provide front panel switching of internal Phantom Power and a Phantom Presence LED
shall indicate externally derived Phantom Power. A 20dB Pad switch shall be provided to allow connection to
line level sources.
Access to inputs and outputs 1 & 2 shall be via rear panel XLR's and outputs 3 & 4 shall be accessed via
XLR's on the front panel.
