ProCoder-2
Audessence ProCoder is now building an impressive repeat customer list including BBC World Service.
A great value FM processor and stereo encoder that can save you money whether your station is a big network keen to solve the dilemma of where to locate your favourite multiband audio processor - or a smaller broadcaster looking to broadcast a loud signal without losing clarity and quality.
Multiband processors can be located at the studio for convenience whilst obtaining better peak control (and therefore more loudness) at one or many FM transmitter sites using ProCoder's 'transparent mode' with LF- and HF- overshoot inhibiting algorithms. All the usual limiting and clipping functions for peak control that you'd expect to find are there too, including fully overshoot compensated 15kHz lowpass filters.
Latest software now includes ITU-412 MPX power limiter.
The broadcast audio processor section also has a full range of tools for 'stand-alone' use including our world-renowned leveller, plus effective presence and brightness enhancers to make sure your signal stands out. ProCoder delivers typical Audessence clarity and fidelity on voices and music, but this box has the capability to go loud as well!

ProCoder-3 Top-of-the range ProCoder-3 (audio processor / stereo encoder / fully-featured RDS encoder) now makes building a high quality, reliable FM system easier and more cost-effective than ever before.
Unlike some of our competitor's offerings this is not a PC board in a box, but a DSP-based design:
- Very fast boot in under 1 second!
- Very low audio latency 7ms
- Low power dissipation 10 Watts
- No fan, no vents, cool running
- Superb fully-featured RDS
all make ProCoder-3 stand out from the competition.

RDS PRO-1
The Audessence RDS PRO-1 is a fully featured, reliable RDS / RBDS encoder. Tired of endless trouble with an existing low-cost RDS encoder? Difficult-to-use, unreliable software, unacceptable interference to your stereo audio, no automatic MPX bypass, or missing RDS features like EON and even UECP? You can solve all these problems and save money at the same time with the RDS PRO-1!
New UECP compatibility supports revenue-generating applications like dynamic traffic applications (TMC) and song tagging (RT+)

AM PRO-1
The Audessence AM PRO-1 is a complete air-chain audio processing system for AM radio stations.
- Adjustable input pre-filtering (lowpass and high-pass) pre-conditions audio to prepare for aggressive 'brick-wall' low-pass filtering later and avoids wasting modulation percentage on inaudible sub-bass components
- Unsurpassed Audessence AGC developed for the professional Audessence levellers keeps programme level as consistent as desired
- Programme compression, limiting, pre-emphasis and clipping for optimum loudness and coverage increase
- All this plus enhancement features for brightening and clarifying your programme.
- Adjustable Low-Pass filtering meets all international and national broadcasting specifications including ITU and NRSC (4kHz to 15kHz nominal).

ALPS-1
A tamper-proof solution designed to solve audio level problems - completely! Digital, cost-effective and flexible, ALPS-1 provides control of perceived audio loudness (volume), dynamic range and peak level (modulation). This broadcast audio processor is suitable for all situations where some combination of these three must be powerfully yet unobtrusively controlled. A truly versatile audio leveller / leveler, ideal for radio studios, codec protection, satellite feeds, transmitter protection and remote broadcast site operations.

ALPS-2
Adding complete front-panel control features, the ALPS-2 audio leveller is ideally suited to dynamic operating environments, such as outside broadcasts, where instant local adjustment of sound parameters may be required. A front-panel jog-wheel and LCD display provides intuitive simplicty with gain-reduction metering giving direct feedback to the user.

ALPS-3
Taking control to the next level, the ALPS-3 broadcast audio processor features full remote-control via GPI (contact closure), Internet (IP/Ethernet) and RS-232 serial & Modem. A library of Factory presets for every application is provided, and there is room to store scores of custom User presets in the 2Mb of built-in Flash memory. For situations where audio parameters need to be changed on a regular basis, fully-flexible scheduling software is provided. All processing parameters can be remotely altered by automation systems to reflect changes in broadcast content.

A7020/30B Broadband RF Directional Coupler
Measure VHF and UHF transmission signals with extreme precision...
These directional couplers allow directional sampling of Forward and Refelected RF signals on antenna feeder lines. Verify compliance with ofcom, FCC, or other national telecommunications regulator's specifications for radiated power, harmonics and spurious emissions easily, accurately and repeatably.
Also an essential tool for solving interference problems on shared sites, able to demonstrate that spurious emissions are not being generated in the system they are monitoring.
The first of our new range of RF transmission products, this 3-section dual directional coupler is now stocked in UK for immediate delivery.
Ideal for UK community radio and commercial radio stations where demonstration of conformance to ofcom 'Code of Practice' for transmission systems is essential.
