Sabine NAV480-U

The second generation of Sabine Navigators features a new hardware platform, new remote control software, intuitive wall-mounted remote controls panels, and a broader range of input/output choices for even greater flexibility. The five new Navigators offer fast setup of your production audio rig, easy and secure configuration of your commercial or worship sound system, and complete signal routing for multi-room venues. Steer your way to a better sounding system with the new Sabine Navigators.

Unlimited DSP

The Navigator Series is a complete multi-input/output digital system processor with full loudspeaker management, designed for commercial installation and production audio. The latest in available technology is utilized with 32-bit (40-bit extended) floating point processors and high performance 24-bit digital converters. The high-bit DSP prevents noise and distortion induced by truncation errors of conventional 24-bit fixed-point devices.

All functions operate concurrently and are controlled simultaneously. There is no need to compile any files or settings, the powerful Analog Devices SHARC processors handle the DSP processing. Best of all, you never run out of resources! All functions work together, so go ahead and set FBX feedback control filters on every input and compressors on every input and output – no problem!

Better Control

As the name implies, the Navigator is all about control. The new Navigator Remote Control software provides a heads-up display of all systems status and fast access to all parameters. The new version allows you to choose from two main views: Matrix or Mixer.

Equally powerful is the front panel control for those times when you need full access at the rack position. When integrating the Navigator as part of a larger system, choose USB, RS232, or Ethernet as your connection protocol. Serial and Ethernet-based touch screen control is also possible with all Navigators.

Superior Audio Quality

One of the pioneers in the field of digital signal processing, Sabine’s research and development into digital filtering technology provides an edge in both sound quality and reliability. The FBX Feedback Exterminator is one of the many innovations originating from the engineers at Sabine. This intense research is applied to all DSP functions of the Navigators, including equalization, level control, delay, polarity, routing, multiple crossover selections, and gain management.

Free firmware and software upgrades are easily done by connecting to Sabine’s web site. You can always keep your Navigator current with newly developed algorithms and functions once available. Flexible save and recall functions and complete system security round out these rugged units.

The new Navigators continue the Sabine tradition of simplicity, flexibility, and value. Navigators will improve the sound quality and the adaptability of sound systems for churches, schools, boardrooms, theaters, concert halls, offices, retail outlets, and all levels of touring and production systems.
