Microphone Inputs

  • Up to 5 Microphone Inputs with Automix on each Audio I/O Board
  • 3 Mic on XLR and 2 Mic on RJ45 (with Talk Box connector/adaptor) all balanced with + 48V Phantom and GPIO on each Audio I/O Board
  • Independent ON AIR Lights and Cut Off control when opening Control Room and Studio microphones
  • PFL button switches to private conversation on Hybrid/Telco/BT mode
  • Enable TalkBack feature on any Studio or Control Room microphone

  • Save and recall microphone presets including Compressor/Expander settings
  • Phase inversion on microphone inputs
  • MONO inputs assignable as EXT source
  • Ducking/AutoFader assignable to all sources (automatic attenuation of music on speech)

Automix

The Automix feature simplifies mixing activities if many guests are in the studio.

The Automix adds a new source to the existing ones (called “Automix”) and it will be the sum of all the enabled microphones.

The Automix source has all the features of a normal microphone source such as:

  • Studio/Control Room loudspeakers control
  • Studio/Control Room light control
  • Can be used as audio in Private mode for phone calls

Using the Automix source, the user can manage in a very simple way all the microphones of the studio with many benefits:

  • Managing all the studio’s microphones with one fader only;
  • A dedicated AGC section for each microphone input automatically adjusts the correct level;
  • Automatic management of attenuation on microphones not in use, simulating a slight closure of the fader;
  • Final compressor with automatic leveling of the Automix source;
  • Possibility to use the microphones individually.

This feature simplifies the work of the mixer engineer, especially if he/she is also hosting the show.

Software Remote Control

Oxygen Remoter is a software tool available for free with any Oxygen console. It offers advanced remote control features such as accessing to any set up and information, fader and buttons control and any  other operation available on the physical consoles. It is very useful especially for compact consoles and in any environment that has limited space.

The Virtual Fader technology enables users to assign each input to a virtual fader/channel on the remote surface, this is of course very useful when controlling channels remotely. Additionally, transforming the A/B pair into two virtual faders is a smart solution that maximizes the management of the available sources.

Oxygen Remoter can remotely control multiple consoles and create an ecosystem, this can be very helpful for remote productions where, for instance, a portion of the channels may need to be controlled from a studio while the others are still managed from the physical surface in the control room.

Oxygen Remoter is a powerful tool that provides extra flexibility and control’s tools to all the Oxygen consoles.

Oxygen Remoter is downloadable from the Oxygen console’s administration web page.

Displays

On the OXYGEN 3000 Plus AxelTech reinvented the experience between the studio engineer and the console.

The 7″ TFT IPS graphic display shows all the airing parameters and with the 4 rotary knobs allows the fast and intuitive programming of all the mixer’s parameters.

Selectable home page layouts are available with many theme icons. Default page shows the levels and the A & B source names for any fader.

Four 2,2 ”TFT IPS displays have been implemented for an immediate and complete monitoring of the outputs.

The 2,2 ”TFT IPS displays on top of each fader show the channel status, levels, sources and main settings.

HDMI Output

The HDMI output connects the console to a HD display monitor and it can monitor all  the following information:

  • Audio input source levels
  • 4+1 BUS output levels
  • A/B source names assigned of 10 channels
  • Display On-Air sources
  • Microphone On timer (control room & studio)
  • Large Clock
  • Audio output level (Loudspeakers & Headphones)
  • On-Air microphone
  • Telephone active
  • HDMI output combined with 4 rotary knobs allow the fast and intuitive programming of all the mixer parameters.
  • The programming GUI has been designed in order to be very easy and intuitive.
  • Selectable home page layouts are available, with many theme icons.

HDMI output can be customized with the user’s logo. Selectable display layouts are available.

Bluetooth

Oxygen 3000 Plus has a Bluetooth module on each Audio I/O Board. This allows airing the calls made via GSM, Skype, Viber and WhatsApp with a Smartphone, a Tablet or a PC. Oxygen 3000 Plus has two BT connection modes: bidirectional to support phone calls; monodirectional to put on air high quality stereo audio (A2DP) streamed by BT sources.

With BT calls, PFL enables PRIVATE conversation mode.

Built In Decoder and Streamer

Oxygen 3000 Plus, in addition to analog/digital/AoIP inputs and outputs, are open to integration with the IP world, thanks to the ability to decode an audio streams (stereo or mono) as input and generate an output audio stream (stereo or mono).
