The Flock Audio Patch LV is a groundbreaking digitally controlled, all-analogue routing system specifically designed for live sound, offering 24 channels of high-performance analogue audio routing with no AD/DA conversion or latency, enhanced by DANTE-enabled device chaining for virtually limitless scalability and minimal digital-to-analogue conversion.
A NEW STANDARD FOR LIVE AUDIO ROUTING
Flock Audio’s Patch LV sets a new benchmark in hybrid workflows for live sound systems by incorporating its award-winning, multi-patented analogue routing technology. This innovative system bridges the gap between the precision of digital systems and the warmth of analogue audio, providing unmatched signal transparency and seamless operation. Unlike conventional systems that rely heavily on AD/DA conversion, Patch LV ensures a pure analogue signal path, delivering pristine audio quality without compromising latency.
ADVANCED DANTE INTEGRATION
For the first time, Flock Audio has integrated DANTE technology into its routing systems. This addition allows for device chaining, significantly expanding the number of available channels and enabling professionals to configure larger I/O systems effortlessly. The system supports 64-point connections, comprising 8 inputs and outputs through DANTE-enabled connectors, alongside 24 fully analogue inputs and outputs.
COMPREHENSIVE CONNECTIVITY AND CONTROL
The Patch LV features DB-25/D-SUB Tascam standard pinout connectors, making it compatible with a wide range of professional audio equipment. Users can manage and optimise their routing configurations through the proprietary Patch App, available for both macOS and Windows platforms. The app enables engineers to create, store, and recall complex routings in seconds, ensuring rapid setup during demanding live events. Multing combinations can be established without encountering impedance issues, providing greater flexibility for signal distribution.
ROBUST AND EXPANDABLE DESIGN
Designed with durability and scalability in mind, the Patch LV offers multiple unit expansion capabilities via DANTE, ensuring it can adapt to the requirements of large-scale productions. The system includes a secure, external 5-pin 24VDC locking power supply and a threaded locking USB connector with a 10-foot USB 2.0 cable for reliable communication.
COMPACT AND DURABLE BUILD
The Patch LV boasts a rugged 1U rack-mounted design, measuring 1.75 inches in height, 19 inches in length, and 8 inches in depth, with a weight of 15 pounds. Its compact form factor ensures easy integration into professional live sound setups, while its robust construction guarantees dependable performance in high-pressure environments.
THE FUTURE OF LIVE AUDIO
