GLENSOUND COMMENTARY UNITS

This range of commentator units by Glensound provide the facilities required by up to three commentators, some connecting to a Dante network. Dante is a software and hardware solution, offering high-performance audio distribution over standard IP networks, supporting hundreds of simultaneous channels of uncompressed audio with low latency and accurate synchronization.

MinFerno is a newer and smaller version of Glensound’s popular Inferno network audio commentary box. It is designed for a single commentator or announcer to use, and like the Inferno, it provides a commentary microphone amplifier and compressor limiter circuit. MinFerno is ‘easy to use’ for those commentators who would rather be talking about the sport or subject they’re commentating on. It has been built to be rugged and robust, and therefore it makes it a reliable piece of broadcast equipment for the busy engineer.

Four versions are available within the MinFerno range, with each model having either no, or a number of talkback channels:

MinFerno/0 no talkback channel
MinFerno/1 1x talkback channel
MinFerno/2 2x talkback channels
MinFerno/3 3x talkback channels

The SFP fibre slots are standard networking ports that accept standard SFP modules, giving the user the option of using the fibre and connector style they wish to use. The primary and secondary network circuits allow for ‘glitch free redundancy’ across both the Fibre and Copper network interfaces. Two CAT6 connections by way of Neutrik Ethercon are provided to allow copper connections to local network switches to carry the Dante/AES67 audio. Two connections are fitted to allow redundant circuits to be used if required, with both of these connectors accepting a PoE power source for providing the power to the MinFerno.

One pair of push buttons selects the input type of the front panel, 3-pin XLR to be either microphone, line or microphone with 48V phantom power. Three LEDs indicate which input mode is selected. Two push buttons are used to alter the gain of the input whilst LEDs indicate if the gain setting is above or below Glensound’s pre-configured ‘lineup’ levels. The front panel PPM provides an accurate indication of the input level. The gain can also be altered remotely by a web browser pointing at the MinFerno's web page.

The upper facing panel houses up to five rotary headphone volume controls, with four of these being connected to four incoming audio circuits from the Dante/AES67 network. These are normally used for such sources as mixed programme or cue, talkback to director, talkback to producer, or talkback to engineer. A fifth front panel rotary headphone volume control is ‘sidetone’.

Each of the five headphone volume controls has an associated left ear/right ear/both routing switch located next to the volume knob. This single push button switch routes the associated source to just the left, the right, or both channels of the stereo headphone amplifier. Two LEDs on the front panel indicate MinFerno’s current headphone routing arrangement to enable the commentator to know how they are routing a circuit the first time a routing switch is pressed. The next time the routing switch is pressed then the next routing option is selected.

Depending on model, there are up to four large, illuminated buttons; one for programme and up to three for talkback. These switches route the outgoing microphone circuit onto up to four different Dante/AES67 network audio circuits. The momentary or latching operation of these switches, and the interaction of these switches (i.e. pressing a talkback switch mutes the main mic) can be fully configured via the web page. The audio input level is indicated on the 15 segment PPM meter.

Glensound MinFerno can be powered from any of three different sources including PoE on the Primary CAT5 network link, PoE on the Secondary CAT5 network link, or External 12V DC. Four rear panel LEDs show the availability of the 3 power sources.

Optional Dante SFP Modules

DANTE/SFPS is a single-mode module and DANTE/SFPM is multi-mode. DANTE/SFP1 and DANTE/SFP2 are for use over distances up to 10km and are WDM (wavelength-division multiplexing) types, a multiplexing technology which can be used to enable bi-directional communication over a single fibre. DANTE/SFP1 should be used in a pair with SFP2 Dante breakout boxes: See Dante interfaces.
