System Overview
The Model 233 Announcer’s Console is
designed to serve as the audio control
“hub” for announcers, commentators, and
production personnel. The tabletop unit is
suited for numerous applications includ-

outstanding role in stadium announce
applications. The Model 233 is compatible
with essentially all broadcast and produc-
tion audio system environments. Standard
connectors are used to interface micro-
phone, headphone, on-air, talkback, line
input, and intercom signals.
Whether it’s the mic preamplifier, audio

audio quality is maintained throughout. A
microprocessor provides the Model 233’s
