JBL introduces Commercial Series mixers
Published: PRODUCTS

JBL has debuted the CSM-32 and CSM-21 Commercial Series mixers. The manufacturer describes the new units as providing an ‘entry-level, cost-effective approach to commercial audio applications such as retail, hospitality and conferencing’.
The new mixers can reportedly be configured for a range of uses such as paging, background music, and security applications, do not require a computer for configuration and are designed with analogue-style controls. An included security plate can be placed over the controls to avoid uninvited changes to a commissioned system.
The CSM-32 features three stereo inputs and two stereo zone outputs and the CSM-21 features two stereo inputs and one stereo zone output. Both processors are stereo throughout the entire digital processing path and can be run in stereo or mono mode. The CSM-32 offers an isolated output, specifically designed for supplying music-on-hold audio to phone systems.
The new mixers offer a range of processing tools, including priority override, page ducking, source and zone EQ, LevelGuard, AutoWarmth and a built-in crossover. LevelGuard is used to automatically apply the correct amount of compression to the source signals based upon the incoming level. AutoWarmth works by automatically adjusting the tonal balance within a zone based upon the zone output level.
Three wall controllers are available for the CSM-32 and CSM-21 devices, which offer volume control and source selection from convenient remote locations.
