ARX QSwitch

Description

The Qswitch is a Quad Channel Stereo Switcher; a new addition to our popular AudiBox range of precision audio tools. With this useful device you can: Switch any of FOUR stereo inputs to ONE stereo output, OR Switch ONE stereo input to any of FOUR stereo outputs. Careful user-friendly annotation makes it easy to understand and to see which input or output is being switched. A bank of four latching interlocked switches mean you can only select one switch at a time. A 'scribble-strip' lets you write above each switch with a Chinagraph® or grease pencil, so you can easily confirm what is being switched. Its innovative precision design allows the Qswitch to be used in two modes: 1 : 4 for sending any one of 4 sets of Powered Loudspeakers, Sub Woofers etc, or 4 : 1 for selecting any one of 4 stereo input signal sources to one output in Broadcast, Installation, Studio, and Live Sound applications. The Qswitch has TipRingSleeve jack sockets which accept balanced or unbalanced signals. How does it work? On the Right side of the rear panel , a Left and Right pair of jack sockets are marked IN/OUT. If these are being used as the Inputs, then the 4 jack pairs to the Left of the white line are the Outputs, and pushing the switches on the front panel makes one of those pairs active, depending on the switch you push. However, If you are using these 4 pairs of jack sockets as Inputs, then whichever switch you press on the front will switch that signal to the Right pair of jack sockets, and they will then be the Outputs. It really is as simple as that. No mode switches to set, no learning curve, no software to set up, just Plug and Play in the truest sense of the word! The heavy duty all-steel chassis is finished in attractive matt textured powdercoat, with hardwearing epoxy screen printing and slip resistant rubber pads. The Qswitch is a totally passive device with no power requirements, making it a truly universal problem solver. Security features include Kensington®-type computer lock slot and optional bracket kit for under-table mounting.
