Description
The DL8 Stage Box provides 8 of MIdas' award-winning Midas PRO microphone preamplifiers with switchable +48 V phantom power; 8 electronically balanced low impedance line level; integrated ULTRANET distribution hub for connecting to Behringer P16-M personal monitor mixers or Turbosound speaker systems; plus dual AES50 SuperMAC ports for cascading additional StageBoxes.
Connecting over a single shielded (STP) CAT5 cable, up to three DL8s can be daisy-chained to deliver 48 channels in and 48 out to the stage. Klark Tekniks AES50 simultaneously provides high channel counts, extremely low and deterministic latencies, accurate phase-aligned networked clock distribution, error detection, network redundancy, with simple deployment and ease of use to meet the needs of the live performance industry. This unique combination also benefits both live and studio recording applications, as well as post-production, broadcasting and audio routing infrastructure.
