Studiomaster Direct 121M Description
The Studiomaster Direct 121M uses a 3-way speaker configuration to deliver full-range sound from a compact column system. Six 3-inch midrange drivers reproduce vocals and instruments, while the dedicated 1-inch compression driver handles high-frequency detail. A powered 12-inch bass reflex subwoofer supplies the system's low-frequency output.
The integrated 4-channel mixer supports two microphone or line-level sources through XLR/TRS combination inputs, a high-impedance instrument source, and a stereo RCA source. Bluetooth audio streaming provides convenient wireless playback, while the available XLR outputs support signal linking and connection to additional sound equipment.
A built-in 24-bit DSP processor provides Music, DJ, and Speech presets along with adjustable equalization, gain, high-pass filtering, limiter protection, and output delay. The digital delay can be adjusted for distances up to 100 meters in 0.25-meter increments, allowing the system to be aligned with additional speakers in larger or distributed setups.
Efficient Class-D amplification and a universal 100–240V switch-mode power supply support reliable portable operation. The column sections connect without external speaker cables, allowing the system to be assembled quickly for mobile DJs, live performers, corporate events, houses of worship, rental applications, schools, and small venue sound reinforcement.
