Glensound Express Box MKII
For Simple Commentary Situations

The Express Box MKII was designed to provide a quick and easy solution when it is necessary to provide interfacing for two commentators, with simple facilities. This high quality commentary unit is ideal for those looking for cost effective solutions without paying for unwanted features; the Express Box MKII is worthy of investigation.

Inputs
Two front panel mic inputs with selectable 48v phantom power.

Outputs/Talkback
Each mic input has its own individual output. There is also a mixed output of the two mic inputs. The two talkback circuits have individual outputs and are common for both commentators.

Monitoring
There are four inputs for external sources, one sidetone pot of their own voice and one other commentator pot for listening to the co-commentator. These are available independently to each commentator on individual pots, so each can adjust the inputs for their own preference of mix level. There are two 6.35mm headphone sockets – 1 for each commentator. A 7 segment LED PPM meter displays level.
