PreSonus Ships Innovative StudioLive AI-series Active Integration PA Loudspeakers
Baton Rouge, Louisiana - January 2014...
PreSonus is
shipping its new StudioLive™ AI-series Active Integration Loudspeakers,
the first active loudspeakers that deliver studio-monitor accuracy
onstage. The new line includes the full-range StudioLive 312AI, 315AI, and 328AI and the StudioLive 18sAI subwoofer. All models are available immediately.
A key component of
the StudioLive AI's design is its use of Active Integration technology.
Active Integration combines wireless and wired networking and
communications with powerful DSP to create a unified working
environment.
StudioLive
AI-series speakers incorporate Fulcrum Acoustics' TQ™ Temporal
Equalization algorithms. Taking advantage of Active Integration's ample
DSP, TQ employs multiple, fully addressable Finite Impulse Response
(FIR) filters to eliminate horn reflections and to correct linear time
and amplitude anomalies in coaxial systems. Collaborating with Fulcrum
Acoustics' co-founder, Dave Gunness, PreSonus software designers
incorporated custom TQ algorithms with dynamics processing, FFT tools,
and performance monitoring into the onboard DSP. The result is a PA
system with remarkably clear, coherent, studio-quality sound.
Each full-range,
powered, 3-way loudspeaker relies on a custom-designed, CoActual™ 8-inch
coaxial speaker with a 1.75-inch titanium compression driver to
reproduce the mid and high frequencies. Triamplified, Class D power
amplifiers in each model deliver a combined 2,000 watts of power.
The StudioLive
312AI comes equipped with a 12-inch ferrite speaker to handle
low-frequency reproduction, while the 315AI employs a 15-inch woofer,
and the StudioLive 328AI features dual 8-inch ferrite speakers, enabling
it to deliver high-powered performance in a noticeably streamlined and
compact enclosure.
Each full-range
system has a combo XLR/TRS line input and an XLR microphone input with
an XMAX™ Class A mic preamplifier and 12V phantom power, as well as an
XLR audio throughput. The full-range speaker systems are pole-mountable
and have ergonomic side handles, interlocking stacking, and M10 fly
points. All enclosures are of lightweight plywood construction.
Three operation
modes allow the user to choose DSP presets for their application, such
as MP3 playback, live performance, or stage monitoring. Users can also
create a custom preset using SL Room Control and store it onboard for
use later.
In addition to the
full-range, 3-way systems, PreSonus is offering the StudioLive 18sAI, a
powered, 18-inch, ferrite subwoofer designed to complement the
full-range StudioLive AI speakers while still being flexible enough to
work with other powered loudspeakers. A 1,000W amplifier powers the
subwoofer. The StudioLive 18sAI offers stereo line inputs (XLR/¼-inch
combo) and full-range stereo line outputs (XLR) with a switchable,
low-cut crossover.
All StudioLive
AI-series loudspeakers include an Ethernet port and a USB port with a
Wi-Fi module to connect to SL Room Control software over a wireless
network. Expected to be available in Spring 2014, SL Room Control is a
speaker-management application for Mac OS X®, Windows®,
and iPad that provides both individual and grouped speaker control and
includes a 31-band graphic EQ and an 8-band parametric EQ, muting,
soloing, and level control, in addition to performance monitoring (over
temperature, click detection, and excursions). A network-setup wizard
will be included.
Custom accessories
for the AI-series speakers include a mountable Sub Dolly to make
hauling the 18sAI subwoofer easy and a pull-tested Sub Pole to mount a
full-range system atop the 18sAI. An M10 Kit, which contains four M10
eyebolts, lets you fly any full-range model in a permanent installation.
Protective covers for the 312AI, 328AI, 315AI, and 18sAI are also
available.
U.S. MAP/street

for the StudioLive 328AI, $1,599.95 for the StudioLive 315AI, and
$1,299.95 for the StudioLive 18sAI subwoofer. All models are available
