The CTP Systems IU16512AES is a dedicated 16‑channel AES line‑up generator designed to speed up commissioning and fault‑finding in digital audio chains. It outputs industry‑standard BLITS/GLITS sequences with clear, per‑channel spoken idents so you can confirm routing, polarity, phase and channel order quickly and with confidence. AES I/O on BNC provides true pass‑through, and a fail‑safe bypass preserves programme audio if power is lost, maintaining on‑air continuity.
You can record up to 22 seconds of speech per channel via the front‑panel microphone, check playback on the built‑in loudspeaker and trim levels for consistent references. Flexible modes include voice loop, voice plus tone loop, steady tone and stereo pairing, with repeat intervals from 2 to 16 seconds to suit your workflow. A one‑touch Transmission mode streamlines on‑site deployment, while 12 kHz speech sampling and a low‑distortion tone generator deliver clean, dependable test material.
Compact, robust and intuitive, the IU16512AES is ideal for broadcast facilities, OB trucks and post‑production suites where fast AES line‑up, acceptance testing and ongoing troubleshooting are essential.
