CINEMA PROCESSOR

CPi2000 is a professional-grade processor developed by JBL to provide audio enhancement and volume control
for cinemas. It features DSP processing, room EQ tuning, volume control and system fault detection and can be
configured through a tailor-designed GUI software.
CPi2000 offers four input options – Analog Input, Digital Input, Non-Sync Input and mono Mic Input. The Analog
Input and Digital Input accept audio signal from any cinema server. Non-Sync Input receives line level stereo
signal from a CD or DVD player for background music playback. Mic Input normally connects to a RTA microphone
for room tuning.
CPi2000 installs ten (10) HD-15 Analog Output connectors for passive, bi-amp or tri-amp connection and a 25-
pin Analog Output connector for connection with a third-party audio system. Its Redundant Output (work together
with Analog Input) connector will bypass the CPi2000 system and directly output audio signals while power failure
occurs.
The large LCD display on the front panel is easy for
technicians to run a quick check of system status. To
make global output volume control easy and quick, the
volume knob is designed front accessible. Thanks to
the specially-designed GUI software, setting up cinema
audio system now becomes less demanding.
CPi2000 provides a 1/3 octave GEQ for room tuning
via the GUI software and is built-in with a list of variable
crossover presets to accept a wide range of cinema
speakers.
Designed to use with CROWN cinema amplifiers and
JBL cinema speakers, CPi2000 is able to detect faults
of amplifiers or speakers and send the fault information
to a TMS or a 3rd party control system via its RJ45 connector.
