Compact and light-weight with support for external battery. The new flexibility in digital audio transfer.

The S-0808 has unprecedented mobility enabling further convenience in many applications such as broadcast, event, live stage, audio installation and location sound. Enjoy flexibility in setup using external battery operation or power supplied over REAC.

Compact and Light-weight

The S-0808 weighs around 3kg (6.6lbs) enabling easy setup. Rugged construction
with steel handles withstands the rigors of live and frequent use. Fan-less design enables quiet operation in any environment.

Superb Quality, Fully Discreet Preamp

All inputs employ a high quality preamp with fully discreet circuit design resulting in outstanding sound. Eliminate the need for direct boxes by using the TRS or Hi-Z inputs. Control input gain (-65 to +10dBu), Pad and Phantom Power via a dedicated S-4000R Remote Controller or using the PC Remote Control Software (S-4000RCS). When using as part of a V-Mixing System, these parameters are controlled directly from the M-400 or M-380 V-Mixer.

Power Options

The S-0808 suppor ts unique types of power supply - REAC Embedded Power, and External Battery Options. Choose the type of power conducive to you location and application. Having not to rely on AC power opens up a world of convenience and flexibility. V-Mount (IDX) and Gold Mount (Anton Bauer) battery systems and mounts are supported using the included adapter plate.

Unparalleled Flexibility and Expandability

Configure for a variety of applications and environments. Connectivity is simple enabling rapid system changes, expansion and flexibility.

Battery-Powered 8x8 Snake

An 8 input, 8 output simple digital snake system - ideal when AC power is not convenient or available.

Simple Location Broadcasting System (8in/8out)

Simple system setup using a pair of S-0808s. The S-4000M in a Broadcast Truck (OB Van) provides power to the remote location. Control the remote inputs using the S-4000R.

Event/ Concert System with battery-powered I/O units (26in/42out)

Small concert/event configuration using two battery-powered I/O units enable convenience in placing the talent where AC power is not necessarily available. Mix using your choice of V-Mixer.

Broadcasting System with multiple locations (32in/8out)

This system allows I/O to be place in 4 separate locations using S-0808s. The signals from the 4 units are merged by the S-4000M as it travels to the S-4000H breakout location. Power to each of the S-0808s is supplied by the embedded power over REAC in the S-4000M.

Live stage mixing system (32in/32out)

This system enables the placement of S-0808 units around a stage conveniently located by the drum riser, keyboards, background vocals, etc.

: *1: XLR connector 1: GND, 2: HOT, 3: COLD *2: TRS takes priority if XLR and TRS are simultaneously input to INPUT 5-8. *3: TRS of INPUT 7/8 turns to unbalanced when Hi-Z is turn on. * When a REAC Splitter S-4000-SP or a switching hub is used in-line with REAC cables, the network latency will increase by the amount of processing delay introduced by the splitting device itself. The actual delay is dependant upon the specifications of the splitting device, though the maximum delay amount for a single splitting device should be about 200 microseconds.
