The Atlas Sound 1544ZOP is a 4x4 Dante-enabled output processor, providing networking audio routing and zone-based digital signal processing to compatible amplifiers or powered line-arrays. The device offers a host of usable options, including comprehensive equalization, level-control, and an extra goodie: AlwaysHEAR smart ambient analysis technology, which can automatically adjust levels in a zone to suit the background noise of the environment.

Providing phoenix block terminals and redundant Ethernet ports, the 1544ZOP gives you four line-level balanced analog audio outputs as well as four inputs, useful for various tasks. Use the 1544ZOP with Atlas Sound's GLOBALCOM IP announcement controller, or use it in stand-alone applications. The necessary power supply is available separately.

In addition to the four zone outputs, the 1544ZOP has four balanced line-level analog inputs. You can use them in a variety of ways. You can deploy the inputs as automated test inputs associated with the four zone outputs. Alternately, the analog inputs may be routed out over the Dante network for such uses as background music or auxiliary sources.

The 1544ZOP also provides eight logic inputs. Four of the inputs are standard closure detection and four are supervision capable, which offer a means to detect open or short conditions on the incoming links.

Inputs are provided for connecting up to eight 540S ambient noise sensors, breaking down into two sensors for each output channel. This allows the output of each channel to be automatically adjusted in real time, based on the measured ambient noise level in a zone.

The 1544ZOP may be configured from a GLOBALCOM.IP System Management Center (SMC) or via the open-standard SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol).

Q: 1. What receiver do I need to get live feed from this camera? I wish to fed from cam to receiver to a converter to capture the live feed into a laptop. Q. 2. What is the transmission distance in Line of Sight to receiver? LoSight?

A: You may use the following link to view all of the wireless transmission systems that are compatible with the JVC GY-HC550 Handheld Connected Cam 1" 4K Broadcast Camcorder. See: https://bhpho.to/3ArC1md From there you will need to send the video signal from the receiver to a capture card or a encoder which will allow your computer to intake the video signal and use it as a stream source.

Q: 2. Are the outputs assignable? Can I send input 1&2 to Lineout-1 and input 3&4 to Lineout-2?

A: No, the outputs on the Zoom U-44 Portable 4x4 USB Handy Audio/MIDI Interface are not assignable.

Q: 3. Hello, the "what's in the box" does not list the magnet (BH #JOM • MFR #J1504). Do I need to buy it separately?

A: No, you do not need to buy the Magnet. It doesn't show on our website, but the magnet does come with this kit.

Q: 4. Will this JVC GY-HC550 work with any third-party batteries? These JVC batteries are rather pricey. Is there an adapter that will allow it to work with an Anton-Bauer b battery?

A: Not at this time.

Q: 5. Does this come with the EXH-6 attachment? The description is confusing. It says 4 inputs but the base unit only has 2, but allows for the EXH-6 attachment to get 4.

A: The U-44 does not include the attachment for the extra two microphone channels. I have not purchased that to try yet, but the connector on the bottom of the unit works with the microphone that comes with the H6. I think those are the same type of Zoom microphone connector standard.

Q: 6. How do you monitor levels or change settings without a display?

A: This interface is specifically designed for use with a DAW. There are manual knobs and LED indicators to indicate clipping and usable/normal levels.

Q: 7. Is there a specific vari-zoom controller for this camera?

A: Yes, the Varizoom VZROCK-J600 JVC Zoom/Focus/Iris Controller (BH #VAVZROCKJ600). This is designed for JVC camcorders that feature a 2.5mm control input.

Q: 8. Can i work with 5.1 sound files conecting this interface to my home theater receiver via optical I/O?

A: That ZoomU-44 is an audio interface used with a computer to turn the analog signal into a digital signal. It is used for recording purposes. Unfortunately it will not work with your 5,1 system.

Q: 9. Can this be used as a live keyer for a virtual set with dynamically moving cameras? The promo materials seem to only mention fixed cameras.

A: The Blackmagic Design Ultimatte 12 4K Keyer Advanced Compositing Processor can be used in virtual sets, but the handling of foreground and background would be done with external processing.

Q: 10. Does anyone know whether or not this will work with current Silicon macs? I have the Mac Studio M2 Max.

A: Yes, it is compatible with Silicon Chip Macs.
