Coleman Audio Red48

Please note, this unit is NEW in the original packaging.

The Coleman Audio RED48 summing console fills the void left by the

mixing console you still wish you had. It brings back the analog console

sound that's been missing in the mixes and adds essential control room

functions so your studio is easier to navigate.

The RED48 consists of three sections: the control room monitor, the

communications, and the mix buss.

The control room monitor section has three balanced stereo input sources

and the mix buss to select from. A passive stepped attenuator to adjust

the level for the control room monitors or alternate speakers and a remote

dim switch for those important phone calls.

The communication section includes a talkback mic and level control

which feeds the cue system, a separate slate output to designate tracks,

remote switches for both these functions, and an extra remote jack for yet

another remote talkback switch. The cue signal can be either a dedicated

cue mix or the control room signal, for that quick overdub. The engineers

headphone can select the control room signal or the cue signal, has it's

own level control, and also gets the talkback signal when the cue feed is

selected.

The mixing section has 48 balanced analog inputs summed down to left

and right. The 48 inputs are hard left and hard right so they combine to 24

stereo inputs. When working I suggest bringing signals in as stereo inputs

so the pan pots of the DAW will be active in your mix. All the level control,

EQ and panning is done in the DAW, or if you have a patchbay, you can

get in and out of any of your analog gear on the way to the summing

inputs. There is a balanced stereo insert making it easy to put a

compressor or limiter across the entire mix. If the insert is not wired it is

completely bypassed. When connected into your system it has a bypass

switch making it easy to A/B the mix.

The remote for the RED 48 has a Penny and Giles stereo master fader

along with function switches for slate, talkback, and dim.

The mix buss feeds a balanced analog signal out to a pair of XLR

connectors to burn a CD, or to be recorded back on the DAW. Since the

mix output is always present on larger tracking dates it can be used as a

second cue feed so the drummer can get a click track, the horn players

can get more horns, or the vocalist can get plenty of "more me" in their

headphones.

With all these functions in only 2 rack spaces the RED48 will save space in

your control room, improve your work flow, and bring back that large frame

console sound to your mixes.
