"Big Dog"


This unit was nicknamed the "Big Dog" by our Custom Shop manager, Sam Bertolone. Since its picture appeared inside the back cover of our 1999 catalog, we've had requests to build several more for various sound companies.

The main unit consists of a custom punched and engraved rack panel with backbox containing 56 mic inputs. A lift switch for each input ground lifts both isolated outputs.

In addition, the mic input connections are duplicated with 5 Whirlwind W1 multipin subsnake inputs. The 5 subsnakes consist of MINI-12 low profile boxes with W1 disconnects and they are connected to the main panel with W1-W1 multipin cables.

The output section consists of 1 direct and 2 isolated outputs via W4 MASS connectors mounted on our MASS hinge angle adapters. The hinged adapters allow the multipins to swing down at a 60-degree angle when in use but fold up and lock during storage and transport.
