The Cobalt ARIA-V Audio Monitor features best-in-class sound monitoring in a 19" rack-mount device. Developed as a result of customer feedback, the sound is produced by an efficient Class-D amplifier with DSP and specially selected speaker components. The color LCD touchscreen displays system status, 16 SDI channel metering, or 64 MADI channel metering. Input sources can be switched and mixed to monitor audio and a thumbnail view of video. A large master control knob and eight color-LED-illuminated knobs provide fine-tuning control in a v-shaped (AUD-MON-V) layout.
Default presets provide a beginning setup. Setups can be saved as presets for quick changes. Optional ST 2110 licenses enable selection of a persona (operation profile) for management of 2110 input. An Ethernet port enables IP-based UI configuration. Web-based browser support expands control beyond the LCD screen for larger views of controls, meters, mixes, and video input.
