Williams Sound IC-2 Audio Control Center WLS-IC-2

Williams Sound IC-2 Audio Control Center WLS-IC-2

The Williams Sound IC-2 is an audio control center for simultaneous interpretation of one or more languages. As a stand-alone unit, it allows one or two interpreters to monitor floor or relay sources, activate microphone inputs, and route the interpretation signal to one of two language groups. Ideal for presentation-style conferences of up to 14 languages, where a floor and a single relay language are used. Can be used with Williams Sound FM, infrared and Digi-Wave transmitters for portable or fixed installations. Designed to meet international standards for portable interpretation consoles.

Features:

• CAT 5 audio offers simplified cabling and easy cascading to support additional interpreters.
• Built-in distribution amplifier and mini mixer reduce the need for external equipment and greatly simplify setup.
• Floor language feed-through
• Interlocking microphone and relay output functions
• Enhanced flexibility, providing each interpreter with multiple microphone and headset options

  Controls
• Volume: Left and Right rotary, controls headphone volume
• Bass and Treble Tone: Left and right rotary with center detent, controls headphone bass and treble tone levels.
• Mute: Push button, backlit red, mutes left and right mics while pressed.
• Mic On: Push button, backlit bright red, activates microphone. Right and left Mic On buttons are interlocked; mic can only be turned on if the other is off.
• Floor Input, Relay Input: Push buttons, backlit blue, select listening language group. Listening modes are either/or: turning one on disables the other.
• CH2 Output: Push button, backlit yellow, selects microphone output language group: light on = CH2 Out, light off = CH1 Out.
• Gain Adjust: Rotary gain pots control level of microphone and Floor audio.
• Phantom Power: Slide switch enables 12VDC Simplex power to XLR microphone.
• CH1 Feedthrough: Slide switch enables Floor feedthrough to Norm Out XLR jack.
• CH2 Feedthrough: Slide switch enables Floor feedthrough to Relay Out XLR jack.
• Ground Lift: Slide switch disconnects Chassis and Audio Grounds internal to the console.
  
  Indicator
• Peak Level Indicator: Green LED on back panel indicates optimal audio output level on Norm Out XLR when blinking.
• CH2 Output in Use Indicator: Yellow LED on front panel indicates when CH2 is in use.
