Galaxy introduces the new AS-1400 wireless personal monitor with unique "mixed mono mode,” designed for performing musicians and public speakers in houses of worship, corporate and government facilities, and entertainment applications.
The AS-1400 has 275 selectable UHF frequencies over a 42 MHz range to minimize interference and aid finding an open channel. Multiple AS-1400 systems can share the same stage, to give each artist a custom monitor mix. Alternately, a single transmitter can feed an unlimited number of body packs for an economical wireless monitoring system.
According to the manufacturer, “Galaxy's unique ‘mixed mono mode’ converts normal stereo operation into a two-channel mono mix using the bodypack’s pan control to balance the two channels. Performers can hear "my vocal" and "the band" in both ears using their pan control to balance the mix. The AS-1400 may also be used with a personal monitoring mixer, giving the user more control over their monitors.
Transmitter and receiver feature LCD screens and convenient controls. Each AS-1400R bodypack receiver comes with a set of Galaxy’s EB4 ear buds and operates for up to seven hours on a pair of alkaline AA batteries. The unit retails for $499.99. An included single/dual rack kit mounts a single AS-1400T transmitter in a single half-rack space, or two transmitters side-by-side in a single rack space, for travel and operation. An optional “Band Pack” system includes one transmitter and four bodypack receivers, equipping a band or facility with a complete personal monitoring system for under $1200.
