When your professional live-sound reputation is on the line,
Crest Audio's V12 becomes your secret-weapon: delivering
bullet-proof quality and reliability in a superlative front-of-house
or monitor console. V12 includes those features most-desired by
touring and permanent-installation engineers. Full-parametric eq
is provided on all input channels. A wealth of outputs are available
for unexpected situations. Gold-plated connectors and balanced-circuitry
are provided, both internally and externally, for long-term
interference-free operation
sound fundamentals
The sonic performance of the V12 is sure to please discriminating
sound engineers and audiences alike, even when the console is
pushed hard in demanding applications. In order to maintain
high-headroom with low-noise,V12 circuits exclusively employ the
latest-generation of integrated circuits (operated on +/-20 volt rails)
and studio-grade proprietary-design microphone pre-amplifiers.
Dual-VCA Elements are the best available fromTHAT Corporation,
offering improved performance over single-elementVCA designs.
Phase-shift has received special attention in the design, revealing less
than five-degrees of phase-shift on lower frequencies and less than
18-degrees on upper frequencies??better performance than that
observed in significantly more-expensive consoles.
wide range of configurations
V12 consoles are supplied with either 24, 32, 40, and 48 mono input
channels, plus four full-featured stereo mic/line input channels. Basic
configurations for all consoles include Master and Group modules,
plus four stereo-input modules that may be used as effect-returns.
All other inputs may be individually-ordered as mono-mic/line or
stereo-mic/line modules. An optional expansion-system enables the
addition of up to two 28-input side cars. Up to three V12 chassis
may also be linked together for single-console operation.
muting systems
Three-types of mute systems provide the appropriate mute
system for any application. Microprocessor based systems may be
disabled for total manual mute operation. The V12 microprocessor
mute system was co-developed with JL Cooper, insuring utmost
reliability and industry-standard operation methods.
