This is it – the simplest, most affordable digital
solution to get everyone the mix they need to perform
their best. This new system platform is completely
modular and infinitely expandable, which means it is
the last personal monitoring system you’ll ever need.
With this system, there is no learning curve. Whether or not
you’ve ever used a personal monitor mixer, the simple layout
of this powerful system makes getting the right mix a quick
and effortless experience. Based in Gigabit Ethernet, this
framework paves the way for an impressive range of future
possibilities.
The Hear Back PRO System: Hub & Mixers
The Hear Back PRO system consists of two main
components: the Hub and the Mixer. The modular Hub
consists of four card slots, which can be populated with any
configuration of input and/or output cards to fit your exact
needs. Each Hub has the ability to supply signal and power
to as many as 32 Mixers (8 per Network Card), each over
a single standard CAT6* cable. And with the built-in HBUS
In/Out ports, multiple Hubs can be daisy-chained together,
allowing for truly unlimited system expansion.
The standard Hub (included in the Four Pack) comes pre-
loaded with one Network Card and your choice of input card.
For analog, two 8-channel Analog Input Cards are provided
which can accept input signals from an audio mixer via
auxiliary, matrix, monitor, and/or direct outputs. For digital
options, you can chose from our Waves SoundGrid, Dante,
ADAT, or AES/EBU Input/Output cards.
