Soundfield SP451 Surround Sound Processor

SP451 Surround Sound Processor description:

The Soundfield SP451 offers a rugged 1U rackmount hardware alternative to the Surround Zone plug-in. It is favoured by those wishing to bypass computers and DAW’s and commit up to eight tracks of surround sound directly to digital recorders ‘live’ as the performance takes place. It can also be used ‘stand alone’ in post-production where from pre-recorded B-Format material it will output a 5.1 surround mix and stereo mix simultaneously.

The Soundfield SP451 generates up to three surround mic arrays with differing polar pattern combinations for instant comparison. Front panel controls include individual 5.1 channel levels and metering with variable Front Width, Rear Width and Rear Pattern for each mic array. The Soundfield SP451 has B-Format inputs (W, X, Y & Z) and eight surround outputs. Input/outputs are balanced XLR at line level.
