Converge Pro 2 120 FAQs

What makes the CONVERGE Pro 2 120 different from other models in the series?

The CONVERGE Pro 2 120 is an inputs-only DSP mixer, featuring 12 mic/line inputs with AEC (Acoustic Echo Cancellation) but no built-in outputs. It's designed to increase the number of mic/line inputs available to other CONVERGE Pro 2 units in your system, making it ideal for applications requiring multiple input sources.

How many inputs can I achieve by stacking multiple CONVERGE Pro 2 120 units?

The system can be expanded to support up to 144 mic/line inputs through daisy-chaining multiple units. Each CONVERGE Pro 2 120 contributes 12 mic/line inputs with AEC, and units can be connected using the C-Link expansion bus which supports up to 150 channels.

What echo cancellation and noise reduction features does the CONVERGE Pro 2 120 include?

The system offers comprehensive audio processing features including:

Distributed Echo Cancellation on every mic input
Next-gen Acoustic Echo Cancellation processing
DARE™ feedback elimination
Noise Cancellation with Adaptive-Ambience
Advanced microphone gating
Acoustic Intelligence with faster convergence

How can I monitor and manage the CONVERGE Pro 2 120 system?

The system can be configured and managed through the CONSOLE software, which provides:

Auto-discovery of devices
MatrixView™ for entire system visualization
FlowView™ for visualized audio signal paths
System monitoring and troubleshooting
Additionally, it offers flexible control options including Touch-Panel Controller (with tabletop and wall mount options) and Dialer apps for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android platforms.
