AS-428 Audio Switcher

The AS428 Dual Function Audio Switcher.

Nominated for the ART AWARD (Advancement in Radio Technology) presented by Radio Magazine.

Dixon Systems is pleased to offer the AS428 dual function stereo audio switcher. It can be used as two four by one stereo switchers or as an eight by one with two identical outputs. A simple push of a button is all that’s required to change from one to the other!

Designed to add inputs and additional monitoring capability for the NM-250 MKII Newsroom Mixer, the AS428 can be used anywhere a locally controlled high quality stereo switcher is required.

Want to scan the inputs? No problem. The AS428 has that built in. It’s ideal for quickly checking what the ‘other’ stations are doing. At the transmitter site you can use its A/B function. Put your studio feed on input one and the off air feed into input two and let the AS428 toggle back and forth giving you that free hand you’ve never had when setting up your processing. In fact, we think the AS428 is so handy that every engineering department should have at least one on hand.
