ARX has introduced the MSX 8 microphone and line splitter. Active microphone and line splitting has a number of benefits over passive splitters: primarily these are improved sound quality, noise figures comparable to the best microphone inputs, increased resistance to RFI, consistent microphone load and, where required, total signal Ground isolation between outputs.

The MSX 8 consists of two channels of actively buffered ultra low noise microphone and line splitter. Each of these channels has four electronically balanced splits - two on the rear panel, two on the front panel. All four output splits have the option of transformer balancing if required. A 'Link' switch links channel 1 with channel 2, providing an maximum of 8 outputs from a single input, ideal for multiple Press Splits. Each channel has a 20dB pad switch and a +20dB Gain switch, plus silently switchable 48V Phantom power with indicator LED. Housed in a 1RU chassis with integral power supply the MSX 8 offers a solution for wherever flawless signal distribution is required.
