Studio signal light

It’s like a traffic signal for your studio.

Unless you like all that arm waving.

When the mic is hot, communication gets creative. Usually involving frantic arm waving. The Studio Signal Light gives you a better way to get the message across. On air, break coming, phone ringing, or whatever else needs to be said without saying a word.

The red segment tells everyone you’re on the air. The other colored segments can mean whatever you want. Break coming. Phone ringing. Pizza delivery guy. Once these are in the studio, you’ll find plenty of uses.

The Studio Signal Light is easy to control. Feed it 12VDC and you’re in business. If your broadcast console has built-in logic, you can drive it directly. Or roll your own interface if that’s your thing. Better yet, use the Angry Audio Studio Signal Light Gadget built for exactly this job. Your studio is going to have blinkenlights!

Studio Signal Light cables terminate with a female RJ45 connector; 12VDC lights up the segments. An engineer with some spare time could build something to do the job. Spare time? Okay, stop laughing. Of course we built a gadget for that.

TL;DR

  • Oooh shiny

    Bright, colorful tally segments can be seen from every angle.

  • Studio Signal Lights
  • Five flavors

    One to five colored segments. Pick your palette.

  • Get noticed

    Every segment can be programmed for steady illumination, flashing, or rotation.

  • Easy peasy

    Drill a hole, run the cable, screw it down. Done.

The Studio Signal Light Gadget has five LED drivers to control up to five light segments. The front-panel LEDs match the segment colors, and the adjacent switch lets you trigger the lights automatically via rear-panel GPI connections, or fire them manually if you prefer. The Gadget works with all five models of the Studio Signal Light. Using a smaller model? Just ignore the extra sections.

Like all Angry Audio products, the Studio Signal Light Gadget is designed for easy installation. The rear panel provides RJ45 connections for each segment, plus an “ALL” connector that triggers every segment at once.

Another RJ45 connects directly to the Studio Signal Light itself, pinned to match the connector on the Light. Plug in a CAT5 patch cable and you’re done. Pure solderless signalling.

The Studio Signal Light is a bright idea. Put one in every control room and studio to give visual cues to talent and operators when the mics are hot. Everyone knows what the red light means. But once the mic is live, you may need to signal something else. Break coming. Phone ringing. Boss sighting. You’ll find all kinds of uses. Sure beats banging on the studio glass.

Studio Signal Light cables terminate with a female RJ45 connector; 12VDC lights up the segments. An engineer with some spare time could build something to do the job… But who’s got spare time? So we designed the Studio Signal Light Gadget just for this purpose.
 
The Studio Signal Light Gadget has five LED drivers to light up to five different light segments.The front panel has LEDs that correspond to the segment colors; the adjacent switch lets you automatically trigger the lights via rear-panel GPI connections, or trigger each one manually if you like. The Gadget can control all five models of the Studio Signal Light; for smaller Signal Lights, just ignore the unused control sections.

TL;DR

  • Indestructible

    Because, you know, radio guys.

  • Studio Signal Light Gadget
  • Color coded

    Front panel LEDs reflect the state of the Signal Lights.

  • Click, click

    A few patch cables and you're all lit up.

  • Remote control

    Front panel switches and rear panel GPI inputs.

Like all Angry Audio products, the Studio Signal Light Gadget is designed for easy installation. Every segment has a dedicated RJ45 for GPI on the back panel. This makes it simple to use different devices to control different segments.
 
Additionally, the RJ45 marked “ALL” can control all five segments using one connection (useful when you want to control all of the lights with a single device). The drivers are all wired to a single RJ45 port, pinned to exactly match the RJ45 port on the Studio Signal Light (of course). All you need is a CAT5 patch cable to connect the light and gadget.
