FAQs about Blackmagic Design AM Audio Monitor

What is the Blackmagic Audio Monitor?

It is a 1RU rack-mount audio monitoring solution featuring advanced multi-rate 6G-SDI technology, balanced analog inputs, and digital AES/EBU inputs. It combines a powerful stereo speaker system with dual subwoofers, precision audio metering, and an integrated video confidence monitor in a single rack unit.

What audio and video inputs does it support?

The unit features a 6G-SDI input that accepts SD, HD, and Ultra HD video feeds up to 2160p30 to monitor embedded audio tracks. For external audio feeds, it includes balanced stereo XLR analog inputs, unbalanced stereo RCA inputs, and a balanced AES/EBU digital audio XLR input.

What speaker architecture is built into the 1RU chassis?

It features an acoustically tuned, dual-subwoofer design paired with wide-range stereo drivers powered by a Class-D stereo amplifier. This internal chamber configuration produces full-range sound with clear highs and deep bass response without requiring external studio monitors.

How does the front-panel video display work?

The integrated color LCD screen displays the incoming SDI video source for real-time visual confidence monitoring alongside selected input information and audio formats. It allows broadcast engineers to confirm that video sync and program content match the audio channels being monitored.

What type of audio metering is provided?

The front panel includes large, multi-segment multicolor LED level meters that can display VU, PPM (Peak Programme Meter), or Loudness scales. The meters clearly indicate signal level, peak overloads, and dynamic range compliant with international broadcast delivery standards.

Can you select and solo individual audio channels from an SDI feed?

Yes, illuminated front-panel push buttons let you quickly solo, pair, and isolate any of the 16 embedded SDI audio channels. This makes it easy to switch between main program stereo mixes, alternate language tracks, intercom communications, or camera scratch feeds.

Does the unit offer video and audio loop-through outputs?

Yes, it includes an active, reclocked 6G-SDI loop output to pass untouched video downstream, as well as an HDMI 4K video output for monitoring on larger displays. It also features a front-panel 1/4-inch headphone jack that automatically mutes the internal speakers when headphones are plugged in.

How is the Blackmagic Audio Monitor powered?

It features an internal universal power supply (100–240 Vac) that connects via a standard IEC power cord, eliminating the need for bulky external DC power adapters. Its low power consumption makes it suitable for equipment racks in OB broadcast trucks and machine rooms.
