commonly used.) Two 6-channel audio
sources and one set of amplified monitor
loudspeakers are connected. Note care-
fully how the channels are assigned:
Model 58 unit 1 supports the left channel
and the center channel, Model 58 unit 2
supports the right channel and the left
surround channel, and Model 58 unit 3
supports the right surround channel and
the subwoofer channel. Three input and
three output wiring harnesses are re-
quired, each connecting to the Model 58s
with 25-pin D-subminiature plugs. These
wiring harnesses are not included with
the StudioComm for Surround system.
The Model 59 Control Console is con-
nected to Model 58 unit 1 using a 9-pin
“D-sub” interconnecting cable. The three
Model 58 units are linked together using
the ribbon cable bus assembly. Both the
9-pin interconnecting cable and ribbon
cable bus are provided with the Studio-
Comm for Surround system. AC mains
power needs to be connected to each
of the three Model 58s. In this example
installation many of the available re-
sources are not utilized, including the
third and fourth 6-channel inputs, the
insert sections, the meter outputs, and
the remote control functions.
