The EV NetMax N8000 is an extremely flexible audio control processor for a wide range of applications. Presented in a compact 2RU configuration, you can configure the N8000 a number of ways to fit the need at hand. By simply selecting the right combination of I/O cards, the N8000 matrix can be configured IN THE FIELD to one of 6 matrix layouts. In addition, up to a full 32 channels of digital audio are available when you add CobraNet™ functionality to any of these configurations for extended flexibility. Superior Audio Performance The N8000 provides the same legendary audio dynamic range as our amplifiers and signal processors. Superior A/D and D/A conversion technology and wideband electronics ensure that the NetMax N8000 will be transparent in the audio chain. Easy Interface To The Outside World The N8000 can be configured from the web, an Ethernet connection using IRIS-Net, an RS-232 interface or a common USB link. In addition, the N8000 can talk through its integrated CAN bus with any compatible IRIS-Net hardware such as the Electro-Voice remote control amplifier series. For even more flexibility the N8000 comes equipped with a GPIO network so it can control and be controlled through simple logic signals and contact closures.

The AO-1 is an eight-channel analog audio output module for the NetMax N8000 System Controller. Audio signals are connected via screw-lockable Euro block connectors. A-to-D conversion is taken care of by high performance linear 24-bit converters. Internally the signals are processed at 48-bit kHz. 118 dB S/N Dynamic Range for Best Audio Performance Balanced Inputs and Outputs -- High Common Mode Rejection Prevents Long Cables from Picking Up Interference Automatic Configuration -- Indication (Message) of Installation and Removal of Modules via IRIS-Net Software

The DSP-1 is a DSP Extension Module for the NetMax System Controller. The module provides additional DSPs for extending the signal processing capacity and RAM banks for the realization of longer delay times or additional delay lines. 300 MIPS computing capacity – doubles the DSP power of a NetMax System Controller. 2 RAM banks (512k x 24 Bit) – allow for additional delay lines up to 21.8 seconds. 48 Bit signal processing – Double Precision DSP algorithms. Automatic Configuration – signals whether a new module has been inserted or an installed one has been removed.

The MI-1 is an eight-channel microphone input module for the NetMax System Controller. Microphone signals are connected via screw-lockable Euroblock connectors. A-to-D conversion is taken care of by high performance linear 24-bit converters. Internally the signals are processed in 48-bit word length. Gain, pad and phantom power adjustments can be done in real-time via IRIS-Net Software.

The DI-1 is an eight-channel digital input module for the NetMax N8000 System Controller. Digital audio signals in AES/EBU or S/PDIF format are connected via screw-lockable Euro block connectors. Four Toslink™ connectors for the optical transmission of digital audio signals are available. All inputs are equipped with high-quality sample-rate converters. Internally the signals are processed in 48-bit word length.

The Programmable Wall Stations (PWS) are modular wall-mount controls for Electro-Voice NetMax systems. Typical applications are volume control, source selection, preset selection and room combining. The PWS-4 and PWS-6 interface units install in standard electrical gang boxes. A PWS-C CAN coupler is required to use PWS-4 and PWS-6 modules. The PWS-C connects to the CAN bus on the NetMax N8000. Parallel connectors on the PWS-C allow easy daisy chaining of multiple units at different locations. The PWS4/6 modules provide simple, programmable control of a NetMax system and all DSP parameters. Buttons can be configured as momentary, latching or radio groups and all have status LEDs to indicate current state. PWS-4 The PWS-4 panel provides four programmable buttons that can be freely configured via IRIS-Net for parameters such as source selection, mute, preset recall and a variety of other functions. The PWS-4 also provides two up/down buttons that can be used for variable parameters, such as level or gain control. PWS-6 The PWS-6 panel provides six programmable buttons that can be freely configured via IRIS-Net for parameters such as source selection, mute, preset recall and a variety of other functions. PWS-C The PWS-C is the backplane interface between the PWS-4/6 panels and the NetMax N8000 CAN bus and an external power supply. It features parallel connections for easy daisy-chaining of multiple PWS-Cs in different locations. Each PWS-C can support any combination of up to three PWS-4/6 panels at a single location via the included ribbon cable. Each PWS-4/6 location requires a PWS-C. Additional features: Up to three PWS-4/6 units in a wallstation Easy daisy chaining of any combination of up to three PWS 4/6 modules at a single location using included connection cable and a PWS-C. Easy labeling of buttons Label field protected by transparent cover.  A label generating utility is included with IRIS-Net. Configuration via IRIS-Net Buttons and LEDs can be used for various functions and are fully configurable and customizeable.

The DO-1 is an eight-channel digital output module for the NetMax N8000 System Controller. Digital audio signals in AES/EBU format are connected via screw-lockable Euro block connectors. Internally the signals are processed in 48-bit word length.
