Description
With support for both dynamic and electret-condenser microphones, the Studio Technologies Model 372A offers compatibility with a wide range of broadcast and gaming headsets. Users can connect via the 5-pin female XLR headset connector or the 3.5mm TRRS jack, making the unit equally suited for professional-grade headsets or consumer earbuds. Its one talk/two listen configuration is especially effective in real-world production, where crew members primarily monitor producer or director instructions while having access to a secondary program or show audio channel.Dante Integration and Flexibility Operating over standard Ethernet with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE), the Model 372A integrates seamlessly into Dante networks. It can be deployed as part of a party-line intercom system using the Studio Technologies Model 5422 Dante Intercom Audio Engine, connected point-to-point, or integrated with Dante-compatible matrix intercoms. Each beltpack provides one transmit and two receive channels with 24-bit / 48 kHz audio, AES67 support, and compatibility with Dante Domain Manager (DDM). STcontroller software allows fine-tuned configuration, including microphone gain, talk button behavior, sidetone, and headphone routing.User-Centered Design The talk push-button can be set to Push-to-Talk, Latching, or Tap-to-Latch modes, while two recessed rotary controls let users easily adjust headphone levels. Call signal reception is supported, with the talk button s LED flashing and lighting when a 20 kHz in-band call signal is detected, ensuring clear communication and cueing. The integrated pneumatic shockmount, low-noise preamp, compressor, and DAC/ADC design deliver pro-grade audio performance with low distortion, high headroom, and excellent off-axis rejection.Rugged and Reliable Built from lightweight aluminum with a stainless steel belt clip, the Model 372A is designed for durability in demanding environments. Its etherCON RJ45 connector ensures a secure, locking Ethernet connection, while firmware updates via USB or network keep the unit future-ready. The beltpack's compact footprint, moderate price, and compatibility with a broad range of headsets make it an efficient, scalable solution for productions of any size.Details One talk channel and two listen channelsDante audio-over-Ethernet with AES67 supportSTcontroller software for flexible configurationSupports dynamic and electret microphones5-pin XLR and 3.5mm TRRS headset connectorsCall receive and display functionOnboard DSP with compressor, EQ, and delayPowered by PoE via etherCON RJ45Rugged aluminum housing with belt clipExcellent audio quality with low noise and high headroom
