StudioMP3 Interface


 

The StudioMP3 player interface plays MP3 files loaded onto a flash drive and streams the audio to the Procaster™ via its 600 ohm stereo-blended mono output. It features full stereo input/output capability for other applications including stereo FM transmitters.

Using your PC, simply drag and drop files onto the included 2GB* flash drive to generate hi-fi stereo sound at the 'Line output' connector.

A 4 position terminal block provides audio (left and right channels mixed to provide a mono 600 ohm signal with level adjustment) and power to the Procaster™ AM transmitter or other device.

An external audio source (such as a mixer) can be fed to the stereo 'Line input' which can be routed through to the 'Line output' and 600 ohm output.

Commercial quality construction combined with high 'uptime' design guarantees reliable operation.

* The included 2 GB flash drive plays 33 hours at 144kps (CD quality music) or 150 hours at 32kbps (speech). Bigger flash drives provide longer run times - enough to run an isolated radio station for days.


Easy to use - switch between 3 modes of operation:


1. Sequential - Play MP3 files one after another and then repeat sequence over forever.
2. Shuffle - Play MP3 files randomly forever.
3. Line - Feed stereo line audio from an external audio source to your transmitter.
