Introduction
oadRunner from MUSICAM USA contains the latest in
technologies to bring you the best possible combination of
features and performance available from any portable codec.
Inside its rugged but lightweight enclosure, the RoadRunner contains a
full-featured monaural audio mixer with two microphone inputs and a
third input switchable between microphone and line levels. The analog
audio section also contains a wide array of outputs: two individually
adjustable headphone outputs, plus two unbalanced and one balanced
line level output.
RoadRunner’s digital section contains the widest selection of
compression algorithms available in any portable codec. RoadRunner’s
premier coding algorithm is MUSICAM, MUSICAM USA’s fully
compatible enhancement to the ISO/MPEG Layer II encoding standard.
Industry standard ISO/MPEG Layer III as well as G.722 are also
included. RoadRunner can send and receive up to 20 kHz monaural
audio transparently over digital transmission systems and is compatible
with more codecs than any other similar device. RoadRunner can send
the same audio program to two locations simultaneously. RoadRunner
also contains ample memory to support upgrades to its algorithm suite
and operating system as developments and improvements occur. You
can even make software upgrades in the field, without having to return
the RoadRunner to the factory.
RoadRunner also contains powerful ancillary data features that enable
bi-directional RS232 ancillary data, up to 4 relay contact closures and
far-end remote control when connecting to another compatible codec.
These ancillary data features are available with all algorithms except
G.722. In addition, the powerful Logic Language offers a large selection
of automated functionality programming that is unavailable from any
other manufacturer.
RoadRunner offers more connection options than any other portable
codec. With a plug-in ISDN terminal adapter (RoadRunner’s standard
