PEAVEY RELEASES SANCTUARY
SERIES™ S-32™ CONSOLE MIXER
July 21, 2005—Peavey again steps out as the
leader in church sound to announce the new S-32 console
mixer. This mixer is part of Peavey's Sanctuary Series,
the only product line dedicated to providing innovative
products to make pro audio easy and cost-effective
for houses of worship.
The Sanctuary Series S-32 is a 32-channel mixer designed
with several unique, user-friendly features to simplify
operation. As on the previously released Sanctuary
S-14™ and S-24™ mixers, Peavey-exclusive technologies
such as Automix™, Auto Delay™ and Mid-Morph™
EQ allow any church leader or layperson to use this
mixer with confidence.
On the S-32, channels 1-24 can be sent to three subgroups—Solo,
Choir and Music—while channels 25-32 have a fourth
subgroup option that engages the exclusive Automix
function. In addition, there are eight programmable
Mute groups that can be utilized to silence groups
of instruments, vocalists or other audio sources. All
32 channels include high, low, mid-frequency and Mid-Morph
equalization, and all have direct outputs. The stereo
line channels (21/22 and 23/24) simplify patching with
three stereo inputs each and dual stereo gain trim
controls, and they can accommodate split-accompaniment
audio tracks or full stereo playback. The Monitor Blend
control allows any mix of the left and right channels
to be sent to the monitors.
The S-32 features a sophisticated digital effects
processing section with a complete library of contemporary
effects. The powerful DSP functions also serve many
of the S-32's outputs; for example, you can program
crossovers, equalization (graphic or parametric), compression/limiting
and delays. The patent-pending Auto Delay toolset simplifies
setting speaker delays for balcony, overflow seating
or nursery areas. A built-in USB output can stream
audio directly to a computer for digital recording
and playback.
Automix is an automatic mixing function that will
adjust microphones input levels automatically, turning
down unused or low priority inputs to give dominance
to the main microphone; the Mid-Morph equalizer is
actually two EQ controls in one, pulling out low-mid
frequencies that muddy the sound when the knob is cut
and shifting to an upper-range frequency boost that
brightens the vocal range.
The Sanctuary Series S-32 will be available in Q3
2005 from authorized Peavey dealers.
