The NewHank CONTROL FM is a versatile and compact 1U audio source unit, designed specifically for commercial background music systems. Combining an MP3 player with a built-in FM tuner, it provides a simple yet highly effective multi-source solution for bars, restaurants, retail spaces, and public environments.
With both USB and SD card support, the integrated MP3 player allows you to play back stored music files with selectable single-track, full-folder repeat, or shuffle modes. In addition, the unit features a 6-preset FM tuner, letting you store and instantly access your favourite radio stations at the push of a button. The bright front-panel LCD displays essential playback and tuner information, while the 3.5mm stereo AUX input allows for quick connection of external devices such as smartphones or portable music players.
Output options include individual stereo RCA outputs for both the MP3 player and FM tuner, as well as a combined mixed stereo RCA output with adjustable front-panel level control, ideal for systems requiring a unified audio feed. The CONTROL FM can be operated entirely from the front panel, but also includes optional RS-232 connectivity for integration into automated control systems.
Built for reliability in continuous-use environments, the CONTROL FM operates on standard 220V mains power and is housed in a durable 19" 1U rack-mount chassis. With intuitive operation and flexible playback options, it’s a cost-effective and dependable choice for fixed-installation audio systems.
