Colin Broad TMC-1- Penta Monitor Control
Electronics in cooperation with NTP Technology have developed a
digital version of the TMC-1 monitor controller TMC-1-Penta, which will
be launched at NAB 2015. The TMC-1-Penta communicates with a NTP Penta
720 or DAD AX32 over ethernet using its native protocol either directly
or over a network. The software is based on the XMON version of the
TMC-1 with a number of enhancements including the ability to control up
to 48 channels on its main input/output and an 8-channel wide stem
mixer. The flexibility of the NTP Digital interface allows the
incorporation of extra features that are not available on Avid's XMON.
The DAD AX32/NTP Penta combines direct connection to Avid's Pro Tools
HD/HDX/HD Native systems with superb A2D/D2A converters, MADI, AES and
SPI. The combination of the DAD AX32 / NTP Penta with the TMC-1-Penta
provides a cost effective digital I/O and monitoring solution for any
studio.
The Penta 720/AX32 provides all the I/O routing with 16 AES I/O
channels, MADI and direct connection with Pro Tools as standard. Also
available as optional cards are analogue I/O, Dante, SDI and other
interfaces providing up to 976 input channels and 976 output channels.
