Blackmagic Design BMD-HDL-AUDMON1RU12GG3 Monitor 12G G3 (1 RU)

Rack-mounted Audio Monitor Built for Broadcast Precision

This 1 RU audio monitoring system delivers full-spectrum sound tailored for live production and post workflows. Designed to support SDI and IP sources, it offers audio clarity, deep bass, and flexible input options—all within a compact footprint suited for control rooms, fly packs, or mobile rigs.

Loud, Clean Sound in One Rack Unit

Despite its size, the monitor packs a punch with dual internal subwoofers and Class‑D amplifiers. The design ensures rich low frequencies and crisp high-end audio, making dialogue and mix details easy to hear—even in noisy environments like broadcast racks or edit bays.

Versatile Input Panel for Diverse Media Sources

You can monitor audio from 12G‑SDI, SMPTE‑2110 IP video, balanced XLR analog, AES/EBU, or casual HiFi sources. With HDMI 2.0 output and SDI loop-through, this unit connects seamlessly to TVs, laptops, or video workflows—adaptable to a wide range of broadcast systems.

Visualize Sound with Accurate Metering and Display

The front panel features a high-resolution LCD for input status and source info, plus dual headphone meters with RGB LEDs. Meter scales include VU, PPM (EBU or BBC), and LKFS loudness—letting you choose precision metering that matches broadcast standards. A headphone jack and dedicated volume dial support private monitoring.

Seamless IP and SDI Integration for Modern Broadcast

Built for both SDI and IP-based setups, the monitor supports 10G Ethernet SMPTE‑2110 inputs. It conforms to NMOS protocols, enabling device discovery and routing across IP networks. That flexibility simplifies modern broadcast integrations without needing external converters.
