CV20 48

The new CV 20 is a true VCA console, providing flexible operation for a wide variety of live-sound and fixed-installation applications. Configurable as a front-of-house or monitor console, the CV 20 includes a unique blend of powerful features, including three primary (LCR) busses, eight subgroups and twelve auxiliary busses. An expandable matrix and a generous array of additional outputs make the CV 20 brings Crest Audio sonic performance to new markets. Intuitive control layout allows simple, immediate access to key functions while configurable fader modes provide even more operational flexibility. Highquality dynamics processing is provided for all output groups, and like all Crest Audio consoles, sonic performance is second to none. An integral scene/mute controller coupled with full talkback, solo and cue functionality provide efficient operations. Support for redundant power supplies and versatile expansion interface make the CV 20 a wise investment for any application.

Design Focus
Ideally suited for both Front-of-House and Monitor applications, Crest Audio��s new CV� 20 provides complete flexibility for any Live sound application. CV 20 includes those features most-desired by touring and permanent installation engineers. Full-VCA control is provided, not only on input channels but also on group masters (aux masters in fader reverse mode) and L/R and Mono masters for maximum control of complex mixes. Four band sweep able EQ with Q control on the mids and a variable High Pass Filter are provided on all mono inputs. 12 auxiliary sends and 8 sub groups are standard on all CV 20 models with fader reverse functionality for easy use as a monitor console.

CV� 20 consoles are supplied with either 24, 32, 40, 48 or 56 mono input channels, plus 8 full stereo input channels. Basic configurations for all consoles included 12 auxes, 8 subgroups, Left/Right/Center/Mono with full metering. Also provided is an 11x4 matrix, full dynamics which can be either routed to the subgroup and L/R/M buses or auxiliary masters, true LCR panning on mono inputs and subgroups and full metering on all main outputs (Auxes, Subgroups, L/R/M buses). CV 20 also comes stock with a total of 16 mute groups, 136 mute scenes and 128 VCA assignment scenes. One Internal Field replaceable, power factor corrected, universal power supply is standard on all CV 20 frames.

An optional expansion system enables the addition of a second internal PSU and a 3rd external PSU. Also provided is an optional meter bridge with analog metering of all main outputs (VU), bus link I/O module for linking multiple CV 20 frames and modules to deal with digital audio transport.
