Legendary CADAC Sound Quality: A Global Standard.

Premium Sound Quality since 1968.
CADAC is a worldwide respected and leading manufacturer of professional mixing consoles with more than 50 years of experience. It
has been at the heart of countless theatre productions including “Billy Elliot”, “We Will Rock You”, “Hairspray” and “Lion King”. CADAC
was and is the console of choice for concert touring for acts such as “Van Halen”, “Rolling Stones”, “Andrea Bocelli”, “Tom Jones” and
“Bryan Adams”. The operations for mixing consoles are based in the United Kingdom since 1968.

                                        The Global Player with specialized Divisions.

Research & Development: Made in Germany.
CADAC started into a new era and set up a new base for research & development in Germany, which is
responsible for loudspeakers, digital controllers and power ampliers. The German R&D group
constantly endeavors to combine the best audio quality and highest performance with unique usability.
As a rst milestone, CADAC introduces high-end beam-steering loudspeakers for touring and xed
installation.

A Masterpiece of Engineering.
Over the past few years, new approaches of beam steering loudspeakers could be found sporadically
on the market. However, their operation and programming were usually very complicated, the
functionality limited and mostly designed only as a work-alone speaker. We are convinced that
loudspeakers and electronics should be developed and operated together as integrated systems and
at once. This ensures that our users and installers always achieve the maximum performance with best
efciency possible. All devices should be connectcted in one network. All loudpeakers should be fully
steerable, including subwoofers.

One Brand, two Divisions.
The high level of technology requires specialized and independent divisions. The division for CADAC
digital mixing consoles is based at Luton, Bedfordshire (UK). The division for professional
loudspeakers, digital controllers and power ampliers operates with a separate competence center
and branch ofce in Germany.

Conventional Speakers and Column Systems.
Conventional systems are based on xed vertical coverage. High sound pressure is needed to reach
all listener areas, which even increases the reection problems.

Conventional Line Array Systems.
Line array systems have been state-of-the art for a long time. However, such directional sound systems are mostly based on mechanical
curving. The resulting problems in the acoustics were compensated as best as possible by electronics. The acoustic results were usually
good enough only in low-reection rooms or outdoors. But especially indoors, line array systems show several disadvantages.

CADAC Beam Steering Systems.
CADAC beam steering systems provide high-end audio performance, unmatched beam forming precision, selective sound
distribution and an all in one software solution with a most simplied user interface. Reections can be reduced to a minimum, while the
speech intelligibility is improved signicantly. The vertical opening angle can be adjusted by software, while the coverage is accurately
adjusted to the listener area(s). The all in one software enables always for best possible results, even in acoustically very demaning
rooms.

Reducing reections from walls, ceiling and oor to a minimum, delivering exceptionally
even sound pressure levels and audio quality from the rst to the last row, offering more
direct sound and very high speech intelligibility while reducing disturbing sound
outside of the listener area.

CADAC Multi Beam Technology.
In larger scenarios with two or more listener areas, CADAC beam steering systems can project independent beams to the listener
areas. The user does not need to calculate anything: Add audience areas to the software and run the optimizer. The software will send
the required beam forming information directly to the DSPs inside the loudspeakers. In larger system congurations, cardioid
subwoofers can be added rear to the main system, which will reduce unwanted sound pressure behind the speakers (on stage) and will
improve the lower mid frequency distribution at the front.

CA124 | 48 Channel Steerable Array
The CA124 beam forming array module combines a comprehensive package in
all relevant disciplines without compromise. With the CA124, even at most
demanding and complex sound installations can be realized. The combination of
mapping optimization and direct array denition is the most comprehensive and
powerful loudspeaker management system on the market. The CA124 is a self-
powered 2-way high-end beam forming array loudspeaker, which features 12 x 4"
                                                                                      Max. 10 x CA124 = 14.8 Meter Acoustic Length

wideband woofers and 36 x 1" dome tweeters. Due to the fully integrated
connection hardware, the column can be stacked to realize larger systems with up
to 14 meters of acoustic length. With the small source distances, the beamforming
capabilities of the column are excellent even at very high frequencies. Internally,
one CA124 has 48 amplier and 48 DSP channels. The CADAC DSP-core module
platform is integrated with the amplier section into the loudspeaker. Cabinets are
electrically connected by the CADAC C-Link audio and command interface. The
CCP control and prediction software can connect to the array via LAN for
command and control, Auto-EQ and to calculate sound prediction on listener
areas. With the CMAP (mapping optimization mode), the vertical dispersion can
be adjusted and optimized according to the listener area.

Applications
Main purpose is the xed installation for speech transmission in acoustically
very demanding venues like:
Ÿ Houses of worship
Ÿ Plenum and convention centers
Ÿ Stadiums and arenas (lobbies, forecourts)
Ÿ Transportation terminals (airports, train stations, bus stations)
Due to its very high acoustic quality, it can also be used for sound
reinforcement in conferences and, together with subwoofers, also for music
reproduction in small and medium venues.

CP124
12 Channel Beam Forming Array Module
12 x 4" + 36" x 1" Conguration with passive 12 Channel Crossover

CP124 | 12 Channel Steerable Array
The CP124 beam forming array module with internal passive crossovers between
LF and HF way. It is intended as basic beamforming column loudspeaker for the
CADAC product range. The combination of mapping optimization and direct
array denition is the most comprehensive and powerful loudspeaker
management system on the market. The CP124 is a self-powered 2-way high-end
beam forming array loudspeaker, which features 12 x 4" wideband woofers and
                                                                                    Max. 10 x CP124 = 14.8 Meter Acoustic Length

X606
42 Channel Beam Forming Array Module
6 x 6.5" ported + 12 x 3.5" + 24" x 1" Conguration

X606 | 42 Channel Steerable Array
The X606 beam forming array module combines a comprehensive package in all
relevant disciplines without compromise. With the X606, even at most demanding
and complex sound installations can be realized. The combination of mapping
optimization and direct array denition is the most comprehensive and powerful
loudspeaker management system on the market. The X606 is a self-powered 3-
way high-end beam forming array loudspeaker, which features 6 x 6.5" ported
woofers for LF, 12 x 3.5" woofers for the MF and 24 x 1" dome tweeters for the HF.
The X606 can be used as single cabinet with programmable vertical dispersion
(point source functionality) and as beamforming array for xed installation as well
as for mobile applications. If one X606 is combined with one X606-CARDIOD
cabinet, the system will have cardioid dispersion for the LF range. The array is used
as straight line in most applications as the coverage on listener areas is adjusted by
beamforming. Due to the fully integrated connection hardware, the column can
be stacked to realize larger systems with up to 10 meters of acoustic length. With
the small source distances, the beamforming capabilities of the column are
excellent even at very high frequencies. Internally, one X606 has 42 amplier and
42 DSP channels. The CADAC DSP-core module platform is integrated with the
amplier section into the loudspeaker. Cabinets are electrically connected by the
CADAC C-Link audio and command interface. The CCP control and prediction
software can connect to the array via LAN for command and control, Auto-EQ and
to calculate sound prediction on listener areas. With the CMAP (mapping
optimization mode), the vertical dispersion can be adjusted and optimized
according to the listener area.

Applications
The X606 was developed for xed installation as well as mobile sound reinforcement
and can be used for music and speech transmission in acoustically very demanding venues.
Ÿ Very high output, high delity steerable array for multiple applications
   (performing arts, production, corporate and house of worship)
Ÿ Flown in arrays of up to 10 cabinets (with or without X606-CARDIOID)

X606 CARDIOID
6 Channel Beam Forming Cardioid Subwoofer
6 x 6.5" ported Conguration

X606 CARDIOID | 6 Channel Cardioid Subwoofer
The X606 CARDIOID is a self-powered 3-channel high-end cardioid subwoofer,
which features 6 x 6.5" ported woofers and unique software controllable cardioid
radiation pattern. The power output of 1200 W (RMS) ensures for very high SPL
down to a frequency of 75 Hz. The cardioid disperson avoids unwanted energy
behind the system and reduces the reveberant eld at low frequencies while
providing highest accuracy in low frequency sound emission. The combination of
mapping optimization and direct cardioid radition pattern denition is the most
comprehensive and powerful loudspeaker management system on the market. It
is seamlessly constructed into the software, cabling and connection concept. The
cabinet can be used as a cardioid extension or normal LF extension for the X606. It
shares the same outer dimensions and yware and can be own together with the
X606 as one line like conventional LF extensions or own behind the X606 with the
cardoid ying frame to set up a beamforming cardoid line array system. Due to the
fully integrated connection hardware, the subwoofer can be stacked to realize
larger systems with up to 10 meters of acoustic length. Internally, one X606
CARDIOID has 6 amplier and 6 DSP channels. The CADAC DSP-core module
platform is integrated with the amplier section into the loudspeaker. Cabinets are
electrically connected by the CADAC C-Link audio and command interface. The
CCP control and prediction software can connect to the array via LAN for
command and control, Auto-EQ and to calculate sound prediction on listener
areas. With the CMAP (mapping optimization mode), the vertical dispersion can
be adjusted and optimized according to the listener area.

Applications
The X606 CARDIOID was developed for xed installation as well as mobile sound reinforcement
and can be used for music and speech transmission in acoustically very demanding venues.
Ÿ Very high output, high delity cardioid subwoofer for multiple applications

X310 | 22 Channel Steerable Performance Array
The X310 beam forming array module combines a comprehensive package in all relevant disciplines without compromise. With the
X310, even at most demanding and complex sound installations can be realized. The combination of mapping optimization and direct
array denition is the most comprehensive and powerful loudspeaker management system on the market. The X310 is a self-powered
3-way high-end beam forming array loudspeaker, which features 3 x 10" ported woofers for LF, 6 x 5" woofers for the MF and 13 x 1"
compression drivers for the HF, which are mounted onto waveguide horns. The X310 can be used as single cabinet with programmable
vertical dispersion (point source functionality) and as beamforming array for xed installation as well as for mobile applications. If one
X310 is combined with one X310-CARDIOID cabinet, the system will have cardioid dispersion for the LF range. The array is used as
straight line in most applications as the coverage on listener areas is adjusted by beamforming. Due to the fully integrated connection
hardware, the cabinet can be stacked to realize larger systems with up to 10 meters of acoustic length. With the small source distances,
the beamforming capabilities of the column are excellent even at very high frequencies. Internally, one X310 has 22 amplier and 22
DSP channels. The CADAC DSP-core module platform is integrated with the amplier section into the loudspeaker. Cabinets are
electrically connected by the CADAC C-Link audio and command interface. The CCP control and prediction software can connect to
the array via LAN for command and control, Auto-EQ and to calculate sound prediction on listener areas. With the CMAP (mapping
optimization mode), the vertical dispersion can be adjusted and optimized according to the listener area.

X310 CARDIOID
3 Channel Beam Forming Cardioid Subwoofer
3 x 10" ported Conguration

X310 CARDIOID | 3 Channel Cardioid Subwoofer
The X310 CARDIOID is a self-powered 3-channel high-end cardioid subwoofer, which features 3 x 10" ported woofers and unique
software controllable cardioid radiation pattern. The power output of 1500 W (RMS) ensures for very high SPL down to a frequency of
60 Hz. The cardioid disperson avoids unwanted energy behind the system and reduces the reveberant eld at low frequencies while
providing highest accuracy in low frequency sound emission. The combination of mapping optimization and direct cardioid radition
pattern denition is the most comprehensive and powerful loudspeaker management system on the market. It is seamlessly
constructed into the software, cabling and connection concept. The cabinet can be used as a cardioid extension or normal LF extension
for the X310. It shares the same outer dimensions and yware and can be own together with the X310 as one line like conventional LF
extensions or own behind the X310 with the cardoid ying frame to set up a beamforming cardoid line array system. Due to the fully
integrated connection hardware, the subwoofer can be stacked to realize larger systems with up to 10 meters of acoustic length.
Internally, one X310 CARDIOID has 3 amplier and 3 DSP channels. The CADAC DSP-core module platform is integrated with the
amplier section into the loudspeaker. Cabinets are electrically connected by the CADAC C-Link audio and command interface. The
CCP control and prediction software can connect to the array via LAN for command and control, Auto-EQ and to calculate sound
prediction on listener areas. With the CMAP (mapping optimization mode), the vertical dispersion can be adjusted and optimized
according to the listener area.

Applications
The X310 CARDIOID was developed for xed installation as well as mobile sound reinforcement and can be used for music and speech
transmission in acoustically very demanding venues.
Ÿ Very high output, high delity cardioid subwoofer for multiple applications
    (performing arts, production, corporate and house of worship)

2 Channel High Performance Subwoofer
2 x 15" Conguration, 4000 W (RMS)

S215 | 2 Channel Dual 15" Subwoofer
The S215 is a self-powered high-end subwoofer, which features 2 x 15" ported woofers. The power output of 4000 W (RMS) ensures for
very high SPL down to a frequency of 40 Hz. It can be combined with all products of the CADAC© range and be used as subwoofer
extension in ground stack conguration for point sources or line arrays and can be also used as ground stack horizontal subwoofer
array. The DSP-electronic has 2 power ampliers and 2 DSP channels. Internally, one S215 has 2 amplier and 2 DSP channels. The
CADAC DSP-core module platform is integrated with the amplier section into the loudspeaker. Cabinets are electrically connected by
the CADAC C-Link audio and command interface. The CCP control and prediction software can connect to the array via LAN for
command and control, Auto-EQ and to calculate sound prediction on listener areas. With the CMAP (mapping optimization mode), the
dispersion can be adjusted and optimized according to the listener area for the application of subwoofer arrays. CMAP enables to
create arbitrary radiation patterns for the listener area with ground stack horizontal arrays.

Applications
The S215 was developed for xed installation as well as mobile sound reinforcement and can be used for
low frequency transmission in acoustically very demanding venues.
Ÿ Very high output, high delity subwoofer for multiple applications
   (performing arts, production, corporate and house of worship)
Ÿ Ground stacked or as subwoofer array (in combination with all
   CADAC© beam forming loudspeaker models)
