Citation preview

Compact, uncompromising sound and features with impressive mixing capacityThe M-300 V-Mixer is the ultimate solution for a variety of venues and applications. It provides a substantial mixing capacity of 32 mixing channels, 8 aux buses, and 4 matrices. The M-300 V-Mixer seamlessly integrates with other REAC devices. The user can directly operate the Digital Snake preamp, control an M-48 Personal Mixer, and set up the I/O for the S-4000M REAC Merge Unit. All of these features are contained in a very compact size and at a weight of 9.8kg (21 lbs 10 oz). The M-300 is the perfect choice for any venue with a limited set-up area, as well as for mobile sound reinforcement. Optional rack rails are also available.

Powerful Built-in Channel Eff ectsEqualization of channels and dynamics are the foundation of any great mix. The enhanced sound shaping abilities of the M-300 input channels include 4-band fully parametric EQ as well as gate and compression. A Key-In fi lter can be used for the Gate/Compressor to enable more expressive mixing. The 4 multi-eff ects processors can be set to use any of 11 diff erent eff ects types. In addition to Reverb and Delay, modulation eff ects such as Chorus and Phaser are also available. The M-300’s busses are also equipped with 8 bands of fully Parametric EQ and Signal Delay on each Aux, Matrix and Main output. The M-300 is fully equipped with all of the sound adjustment tools built-in and ready to go.

USB memory recorder/playerRecord the output of the M-300 Main, assigned AUX bus or MATRIX bus directly to a USB memory drive connected to the built-in USB port. A mix produced with the M-300 can be saved as an uncompressed WAV fi le, without the need for an external recorder. WAV fi les on the USB memory drive can also be played back on the M-300 and used for background music/tracks. User settings and mixer data can also be saved to a USB memory drive.

Advanced control surface designThe M-380 and M-400 V-Mixers are highly regarded for their ease of use and the M-300 continues this tradition starting with 17 - 100mm motorized faders. Central to the M-300’s operation is a high-resolution 800x480 pixel color display. Channel Parameters such as Gain, Pan, EQ and Dynamics can be comfortably operated from the Channel Edit section located on the left side of the display. All parameters can be instantly saved and recalled from Scene Memory. The layers of faders can be easily switched with the LAYER button. Faders can be accessed and arranged freely, and saved as a User Layer.

Control remotely using a wireless LANBy enabling Remote Desktop Connection on a local PC directly connected to the M-300 via the USB, the M-300 can be controlled remotely from another PC using a wireless LAN. An iPad or tablet PC can be used to control the M-300 from a remote location. For example, you can be seated in the audience to adjust the house mix during the rehearsal, or stand onstage to adjust the monitor mix while consulting the stage performer. The M-300 enables new mixing possibilities that you could never achieve with an analog console.

Control remotely from a PCThe M-300 can be controlled remotely in real-time from a PC (Windows) connected via the USB port. Mixing functions on the M-300 can be operated directly from a PC by using the M-300RCS dedicated control software which has the same GUI as the M-300 color display. The M-300RCS can also be operated in offline mode, allowing data for various settings to be created in advance and saved to a USB memory drive. When you get to the venue, load the settings and jump right into sound check and rehearsal.

Multi-channel recording to a DAWForty channels of 24-bit audio can be recorded directly to a PC (Windows) by connecting a REAC port to the gigabit Ethernet port on the PC via a single Cat5e cable. Audio is recorded as individual WAV files using Cakewalk SONAR and can be mixed after recording using the powerful digital audio tools and effects in SONAR.

V-LINK - Audio and Visual SolutionBy connecting the MIDI input/output to the video switcher such as the V-1600HD, V-LINK automatically synchronizes the audio of the M-300 with the visual images allowing “audio follows video”.

Support and management of multiple M-48 Live Personal MixersSupport and management of multiple M-48 Live Personal Mixers

For the performing musician wanting the best possible sound quality and flexibility in their individual stage mix, the M-48 Live Personal Mixer off ers control over 40 audio sources that can be easily managed in 16 assignable stereo groups. Configurations are straightforward with the ability to control, save and recall all connected M-48s from an M-5000, M-480, or M-200i Live Mixing Console allowing the FOH engineer to assist in setup and mixing.

Recording & Post-Production

Part of The V-Mixing System TotalIntegrated SolutionREAC (Roland Ethernet Audio Communication) technology is the cornerstone of the V-Mixing System. REAC is Roland’s original technology for low latency, high quality digital audio transfer. REAC is an Ethernet based technology that enables multiple components to be easily integrated using lightweight Cat5e/6 cable. With just a single inexpensive cable, 40 input x 40 output channels of 24-bit uncompressed audio data (including level and control information) are transferred.

Digital SnakesEnjoy superior clear sound, great intelligibility with minimal latency and the freedom to split or extend your audio sources anywhere.

BridgingThe S-MADI REAC Bridge enables connectivity b e t w e e n M A D I - e q u i p p e d d i g i t a l a u d i o mixers/systems to any REAC-based devices.

Personal MixersThe M-48 is the “next generation” l i ve persona l mixer that of fe rs musicians the f lexibly to control exactly what they want to listen to during their performances.

REAC DriverThe REAC driver enables users to capture up to 40 audio channels from a Digital Snake or V-Mixing System directly into most ASIO-based DAWs via Cat5e/6 cable.

RecordingMult i-channel recording and playback, including virtual rehearsal is accomplished with reliability and stability using the dedicated R-1000 48-Track Recorder/Player.
