Features
Tone Generator The tone is routed to the output by the three-position toggle switch
marked TN TB. Selecting the TN position directs the oscillator section to the output via the switched attenuator. A choice of two frequencies is possible: 1KHz and I0KHz.
A two-way toggle switch selects the frequency.
Attenuator Two, three position toggle switches form the attenuator section, enabling combinations of signal reduction up to 50dB to be set in 10dB steps. This is achieved by a single switch operation or use of both to create the required sum.
Talkback An internal electret microphone and pre-amplifier create potential for communication. It is selected to the output using the TB position on the TN TB switch.
Headphone Output The headphone output can be used to either monitor the signal being sent from the unit or a return signal arriving back in. The selection is made using the push switch marked RET, engaging the switch routes the return signal to the headphones.
Return input This is an electronic balanced input stage that allows an incoming signal to be monitored on the headphones, an unbalanced signal presents no problem. The connector is a 1/4" three pole jack socket wired in the conventional balanced mode. (Refer to connection details)
Main Output The main output is electronically balanced on a three pin male XLR connector. The output stage is the cross-coupled type and therefore can be unbalanced without degradation to the signal level. Two LED indicators allow the presence of phantom or tonader power to be detected at the input of the microphone pre-amp. Both LED's light on phantom, and one on tonader depending on the polarity.



R.U.B. has varied applications whether in the studio or on location. It provides the sound recordist/engineer with assistance when rigging or as a quick check e.g. Lineup.
It can be hand held or belt fastened.
The unit is small and lightweight allowing it to be stored in a pocket.
Powering is from a PP3 battery.
