Overview
BW Broadcast TX600 V3, 600 Watt FM Transmitter with Analog/AES, RDS and Processing
This 600W, 2U FM transmitter is the perfect piece of equipment for you. Built in 4-band DSP audio processing, Ethernet control, RDS Encoder and FSK IDer, GPS inputs for SFN applications, Hot swap PSU and a whole lot more.
Now with a DDS exciter, the TX600 V3 takes the legendary and clean exciters of earlier models with it's ultra-low distortion modulator to a new level. The TX600 V3 has an integrated multi-band DSPX audio processor that means stations without a dedicated processor sound great, right out of the box. This market leading DSP based multi-channel audio processor has been designed to give you a major market signature sound on a budget. With both four band program dependent limiting and wide band AGC with intelligent gating, parametric EQ and shelf bass enhancement, multi band distortion controlled clipper and a powerful composite clipper with pilot protection. All this allows you to tailor your sound for maximum impact.
