2 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing this easy to use, digital 5 band audio processor for Fm band and satellite radio
broadcasting.
The processing is based on 5 compressors for the Bass, Mid1, Mid2, Mid3 and High audio bands. Several,
easily modified parameters strongly affect the colour and richness of the sound. 30 pre-programmed curves
and 10 user- editable curves allow all users (even un-skilled) to achieve astonishing results.
The digital audio processor is the result of years of experience by a team made up of radio technicians,
psycho-acoustic experts and designers specialized in the development of professional audio equipment
based on DSP technology.
At the input, the sophisticated AGC (Automatic Gain Control) stage compensates for input variations, always
keeping the current internal signal at the optimal level. A wide input dynamic range interfaces with any audio
source.
A top quality, built-in digital Stereo Enhancer comes with the unit. It features all the configuration parameters
needed to reach the desired stereophonic effect. The Stereo Enhancer adds its effect only when necessary,
ensuring already stereo emphasized materials are kept unaltered.
The processor comes with a powerful and reliable software specifically designed for remote/direct
equipment programming and control. Through a Windows PC, the software allows the remote
monitoring and control of each processor stage.
The range comprises:
FM version: featuring MPX and RDS encoders built-in
ST version: featuring processed, separated Left and Right audio outputs
WEB version: ideal for audio streaming on the Web
TV version: expressly designed for the audio in TV
MAIN ADVANTAGES
- A single device instead of four units: extraordinary savings of both space and money.
- No more compatibility problems in connecting equipment of different types and manufacturers.
- Fully digital signal processing: top audio quality from the console desk to the final TX.
- A single software application for both local and remote control, to greatly simplify broadcast
management.
HIGHLIGHTS
- The processor offers 30 pre- programmed templates, allowing you to customize all processing
parameters to substantially vary the sound color and enhancement, so that even novice operators can
create a superb and unique sound to identify their radio station.
- The sophisticated AGC (Automatic Gain Control) system compensates for input level variations, always
keeping the actual signal at 0dB.
The AGC setting parameters include: AGC Speed, MaxGain, Hold time and freezing threshold (GATE).

INTRODUCTION ENG
Page 6
- The digital input supports AES3/EBU, S/PDIF audio formats and does not require any special setting
since it can recognize the injected signal and configure it automatically.
- The digital, top quality Stereo Enhancer features all the setting parameters needed to reach the
acoustic effect you’ ve always wanted (Effect Depth, Effect Band, Effect Level).
As it is fully built in into the processor, the module is completely harmonized with other signal
processing sections.
- The fully digital MPX stereo coder built-in ensures the best compromise between signal density and
observing modulation limits.
- The processor is completely removable via serial ports (optoisolated) and can be controlled directly by
PC or via satellite.
- The processor also features a full digital RDS encoder. The RDS programming takes place through a
dedicated PC software interface.
- The Falcon 35 MKII features two hardware bypass: the first one connects the Right / Left audio input to
the Right / Left audio output (on XLR connectors) in the event of Main AC failure. The second hardware
bypass directly connects the AUX-1 Bnc to the OUT-1 Bnc, also in the event of Main AC failure.
NOTE: the present manual describes the processor in its complete configuration. Depending on the
chosen configuration and on the chosen options, Yr actual equipment might not provide some of the
here-below described features or controls.

3 AVAILABLE VERSIONS
3.1 FM VERSION
Thanks to its state-of-the-art digital technology, the processor integrates, as an option, a Stereo MPX coder
(including composite clipper) and a RDS coder.
The digital MPX stereo coder (optional) represents the ideal ‘final touch’ of processing.
As it is directly built-in, it is totally harmonized with all other signal processing stages and ensures the best
results in signal density while adhering to modulation limits.
The digital RDS coder (optional) provides all the CENELEC basic services : PS, PI, PTY, M/S, AF, RT, DI,
TP, TA.
The Traffic Announcement flag may be remotely activated through a dedicated interface (available on
request) and Program service Name may be broadcast in a sequential mode with scrolling effect.
The RDS programming is achieved through the Pc control software which comes with the unit.

SPLIT MPX spli function. The SPLIT function allows the processor output MPX1 to toggle between an
external signal applied to AUX 1 input and the MPX signal internally generated.
SW Remote control software
the RDS and TA options require the MPX option installed.
3.2 ST VERSION
It has active-balanced Left and Right channel, line level analog outputs for applications requiring discrete
L/R processed audio.
Thanks to the optimal modulation control applied to its outputs (with or without pre-emphasis associated),
this processor is therefore very recommended for all those installations where stereo coding (i.e. MPX
coding) is performed externally.
audio input and outputs are available both in analog and digital way (digital available as an option). The
digital input supports AES3/EBU and S/PDIF formats with several sample rates. Thanks to its automatic
recognition of both format and level of injected signal, it doesn’t require any specific configuration.
