MINA
The newest and smallest member of the most accurate and flexible family of line array products on the market, MINA brings MILO?s exceptional features to a more compact package that is strong enough to stand alone, but is also capable of integrating with its siblings M`elodie and MICA.
Exceptional fidelity and transient response offers intelligibility and high impact in installed and touring applications alike, delivering wide and even coverage, and pristine sound.
MINA?s very small footprint and narrow width contribute to an ideal curvilinear array system for low-profile, high-fidelity sound reinforcements in small venues, as well as for frontfill and under-balcony applications.
MINA?s compact size and wide horizontal coverage makes it a great choice for smaller theatres, theatrical touring productions, corporate AV, theme parks, and downfill or sidefill.
Self-powered technology eliminates amplifier racks, long loudspeaker cables, and any calibration of gain and crossover settings. The system can be rigged and ready in minutes.

500-HP
Compact High-Power Subwoofer
The 500-HP is a self-powered, high-output subwoofer suitable for both flown and groundstacked configurations. Available in two versions ? one with side panel handles, one with rigging hardware ? the compact subwoofer integrates smartly with Meyer Sound self-powered, full-range loudspeakers. When fitted with the optional QuickFly MRF-500 rigging frame, the 500-HP arrays directly with the M`elodie ultracompact high-power curvilinear array loudspeaker. The integral 1.5-inch pole-mount receptacle, included with all 500-HPs, allows the subwoofer to be easily paired with UltraSeries loudspeakers, for either fixed or touring applications.
The 500-HP subwoofer boasts an operating frequency range of 35 Hz to 140 Hz and a peak SPL of 135 dB at 1 meter. Designed and manufactured at Meyer Sound`s Berkeley, California headquarters, the unit`s two 12-inch cone drivers are engineered to deliver optimal subwoofer performance. The high-excursion, back-vented drivers, each with 4-inch voice coils, are rated to handle 1200 W (AES) and housed in a tuned, rectangular enclosure that has the same width as the M`elodie loudspeaker.The low frequency drivers are driven by a two- channel class AB/H amplifier with complementary MOSFET output stages. Ample headroom is delivered with 1800 W of total burst output (900 W per channel).
The 500-HP`s amplifier and processing electronics are equipped with Meyer Sound`s Intelligent AC power supply, which adapts to any power voltage worldwide and provides soft-turn on and transient protection. The amplifier, control electronics, and power supply are field-replaceable modules located in the rear of the enclosure.
The 500-HP includes protective, plastic skids on the bottom of the enclosure that securely align with its top slots for stacked units. The optional MRF-500 rigging frame includes captive, recessed GuideALinks that allow the subwoofer to be flown from the MG-M`elodie rigging grid, as well as suspend an array of M`elodies or additional 500-HPs.
The GuideALinks, located at the front, center, and rear of the frame, are easily set to one of three positions with convenient, pinned handles and slots. A wide range of splay angles and configurations, including cardioid arrays, are possible with the different combinations of positions for the front, center, and rear GuideALinks; the angle for suspended M`elodie arrays can be uptilted by 5 degrees (for balcony coverage) or downtilted up to 15 degrees.
Constructed of premium birch plywood, the durable 500-HP enclosure is coated with a black textured, hard-shell finish. A hex-stamped, steel grille with acoustical black mesh protects the subwoofer`s drivers. Other options include weather protection and custom color finishes for fixed installations and applications with specific cosmetic requirements. The dimensions for the 500-HP make its transport compatible with both European and U.S. trucks, and the unit can travel securely in stacks with the optional MCF-500 caster frame.
The RMS remote monitoring system ? standard with the rigging version of the 500-HP and optional with the side panel configuration ? allows comprehensive monitoring of system parameters on a Windows-based computer.

Used Meyer Sound Laboratories
Meyer Sound Laboratories is an American company based in Berkeley, California that manufactures self-powered loudspeakers, multichannel audio show control systems, electroacoustic architecture, and audio analysis tools for the professional sound reinforcement, fixed installation, and sound recording industries.
The company’s emphasis on research and measurement has resulted in the issuance of dozens of patents, including for the now-standard trapezoidal loudspeaker cabinet shape. Meyer Sound has pioneered other technologies that have become standard in the audio industry, including: processor-controlled loudspeaker systems, self-powered loudspeakers,curvilinear arraying, cardioid subwoofers, and source independent measurement.
Meyer Sound has consistently involved itself with advanced research beyond that connected to immediate product development, sometimes in conjunction with arms of the University of California, Berkeley. Some of this research has resulted in unusual products such as their parabolic sound beam and sound field synthesis loudspeakers. Other projects, such as the spherical loudspeaker research underway by Meyer Sound and CNMAT (Center for New Music and Audio Technologies) at UC Berkeley are still in the stage of pure research.

Octave: The difference between two frequencies where one is twice the other. For example, 200 Hz is an octave higher than 100 Hz. 400 Hz is one octave higher than 200 Hz.
Optical Digital Cable: Fiber optic cable that transfers digital audio signals as light pulses.
Outcue/Outq/Out-Point: These words all refer to the final few seconds of audio signifying the conclusion of the production.
Package: A completed and fully edited audio piece.
Passive: Not active. A passive crossover uses no external power and results in insertion loss. A passive speaker is one without internal amplification.
Phase: Time relationship between signals it’s all relative.
Power Output: A measure, usually in watts, of how much energy is modulated by a component.
Preamplifier: A control and switching component that may include equalization functions. The preamp comes in the signal chain before the amplifiers.
Pre Outs: Connectors that provide a line-level output of the internal preamp or surround processor.
Pre Outs/Main Ins: Connectors on a receiver that provide an interruptible signal loop between the output of the internal preamp or surround processor portion of the receiver and the input of the amplifier portion of the receiver.
Pre/Pro: A combination preamp and surround processor.
Processors: Anything that processes an incoming signal in some way. Surround processors, for example, can decode a Dolby Digital signal to send to an amp so you can hear it.
Pulse Code Modulation: (PCM) a way to convert sound or analog information to binary information (0s and 1s) by taking samples of the sound and record the resulting number as binary information. Used on all CDs, DVD-Audio, and just about every other digital audio format. It can sometimes be found on DVD-Video.
Q-and-A: Question and answer session.
Receiver: Any component that receives, or tunes, broadcast signals, be it NTSC, HDTV, DBS, or AM/FM radio. Typically refers to the single component that includes a preamp, surround processor, multichannel amplifier, and AM/FM tuner.
Reverberation: The reflections of sound within a closed space.
RF: Radio Frequency. Television signals are modulated onto RF signals and are then demodulated by your television’s tuner. VCRs and DBS receivers often include channel 3 or 4 modulators, allowing the output signal to be tuned by the television on those channels. Also, laser discs used an RF signal for modulating Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtracks on some movies. This requires an RF demodulator (usually referred to as an AC3-RF demodulator) before or in the surround processor to decode the signal.
RMS: Root Mean Square or the square root of the arithmetic mean (average) of the square’s set of values. A reasonably accurate method of describing an amplifier`s power output.
SACD: Super Audio CD. Enhanced audio format with up to six channels of high-resolution audio encoded using DSD. Requires an SACD player. Multichannel also requires a controller with six-channel analog or proprietary digital inputs for full playback.
Sampling Frequency: How often a digital sample is taken of an analog wave. The more samples taken, the more accurate the recording will be. You need to sample at a minimum of twice the highest frequency you want to capture. For example, the 44.1-kilohertz sampling rate of a CD cannot record sounds higher than 22.05 kilohertz.
Scener: A radio report in which the announcer is recorded at the same time and place as the background sound of an event.
Sensitivity: A measurement (in dB) of the sound-pressure level over a specified frequency range created by a speaker driven by 1 watt (2.83V at 8 ohms) of power with a microphone placed 1 meter away.
Signal-to-Noise Ratio: A comparison of the signal level relative to the noise level. Larger numbers are better.
Simultaneous Interpretation: This system allows attendees to hear the meeting in their own language.
Sound Bite: A portion of audio of someone speaking.
Sound field: The total acoustical characteristics of a space, such as ambience number, timing, and relative level of reflections ratio of direct to reflected sound RT-60 time etc.
Soundstage: The area between two speakers that appears to the listener to be occupied by sonic images. Like a real stage, a soundstage should have width, depth, and height.
Speaker: A component that converts electrical energy into acoustical energy.
SPL: Sound-Pressure Level. Measured in dB.
Subwoofer: A speaker designed to reproduce very low bass frequencies, usually those below about 80 Hz.
THX: Certification program for home theater equipment. Uses some proprietary features, but mostly assures a base quality level for a given room size. (See THX select or Ultra.) Is compatible with any and all soundtrack formats. Stands for either Tom Holman’s eXperiment, after the engineer who drafted the original standard, or is named after the company’s founder George Lucas first movie, THX 1138. Nobody agrees on which.
THX select: Certification program for speakers and receivers that assures a base level of quality and performance when played in a room that’s between 2,000 and 3,000 cubic feet.
User-Generated Content (UGC): Text, photos, video or audio supplied by the customers of a company.
Voicer: A radio report without background audio taken from a scene or otherwise.
Wrap: A radio report containing both the reporter and an actuality.
