Product Description
Aviom BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor
A Great Combination
Using personal mixers and IEMs/headphones along with tactile transducers allows performers to achieve powerful, exciting monitor mixes at lower in-ear levels. This reduces sound-level-induced fatigue allowing longer, more enjoyable performances while also promoting long-term hearing health.
And if you need an extra locking speaker cable, we have that, too. The SPK-5 is a 5-meter (16.4 feet), 14AWG heavy-duty 2-conductor cable with locking connectors.
New to Tactile Transducers?
A tactile transducer is similar in concept to a speaker (without the paper cone) and is designed to be most effective reproducing low frequencies like those produced in music by bass instruments and drums (typically 200Hz and below).
They are also quite effective when used for games and with sound effects for movies. But since a tactile transducer is designed without a speaker diaphragm, it can be used to allow you to feel low frequency vibrations while making very little audible sound.
That makes a tactile transducer a great addition to a personal mixing system when performers are using in-ear monitors. The frequency spectrum is more complete, and you'll be able to monitor at lower volumes while retaining all the fullness and excitement of performing at higher volumes.
Personal Mixers + In‑Ears + BOOM
Compatible with Aviom's industry standard A360, A320, and all other Personal Mixers, the BOOM System can be connected easily to the line- or headphone-level audio outputs of a performer's Personal Mixer.
It's Simple To Set Up
The BOOM-1 processor can be added to any personal mixer or to mixing consoles. All that's required is a stereo headphone output or a dedicated mono line-level output. BOOM-1 takes care of the rest.
• Connect the TRS stereo headphone output from a Personal Mixer to the BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor's headphone-level input.
• For A360 Personal Mixers there's even a dedicated XLR line-level input on the BOOM-1 rear panel. Just connect a standard mic cable from the the A360's Mono Mix Out jack instead of using the Headphone output.
For mixing consoles, connect any aux send to the BOOM line input.
• Connect the Transducer Out to your tactile transducer using a locking-style speaker cable.
That's it; connect your earbuds or headphones and you're ready to start mixing.
The Strength setting controls how much of the source signal from your mix is sent to the tactile transducer. Use the Feel control to choose an optimized DSP setting from Tight to Loose that best suites you and your music.
Setup
The examples below show various Personal Mixers connected to the BOOM-1 Tactile Transducer Processor. The system diagrams use a drum throne as an example, but you can use any tactile transducer equipped seat, stool, performance platform, or stage instead. The connections between the BOOM-1 processor and transducer input are the same.
