Midas DL32

• 32 award-winning Midas PRO microphone preamplifiers with switchable 48V phantom power
• 16 electronically balanced low-impedance line-level outputs
• ULTRANET personal monitoring system connectivity for in-ear applications
• Dual ADAT outputs for use in splitter mode and stand-alone digital multicore applications
• Two AES-3 ports (AES/EBU),e.g. for directly connecting PA system controllers with digital inputs
• Remote operation up to 100 m via Cat 5/5e cable
• MIDI In/Out for bidirectional communication between FOH console and on-stage MIDI devices
• Features Neutrik etherCON AES50 and ULTRANET network ports
• Rugged 3 RU rackmount chassis for durability in portable applications
• Auto-ranging universal switch-mode power supply
• Mute-All-Inputs function for quietly patching any inputs on stage

When used as part of a complete M32 system, two DL32 Stage Boxes can be cascaded via the built-in AES50 ports, providing connectivity for up to 64 mic/line inputs, 32 balanced outputs and the ULTRANET port allows direct connection to Turbosound iQ Series loudspeakers and the Behringer POWERPLAY P-16 Personal Monitoring System, which can feed up to 48 individual monitor mixers. We also included 2 optical ADAT sockets and AES-3 (AES/EBU) for connecting to outboard devices, a convenient USB port for system updates via your PC, plus MIDI I/O for lighting systems and sound module control.

The DL32 was initially designed with our M32 Digital Mixing Console in mind, but any mixing board with AES50 networking capability can still tap directly into the DL32’s powerful feature set. For instance, a DL32 and M32C could be jointly utilized to create a remote controlled digital mixing system in only 4 RU. Another prime application might include the M32C providing independent monitor mix duties, while also relaying and sharing all I/O with the main console—an M32 or any other digital mixer that supports MADI, Dante, ADAT, or AES50 I/O. Reasonably priced option cards to replace the standard 32 x 32 channel USB interface are separately available for that exact purpose. You can even mix the complete show from the onstage M32C via dedicated remote control apps. And since the DL32 and M32C communicate via AES50, they can be separated by Cat 5 cabling, should that be more convenient for the venue.

The world-renowned engineers at Klark Teknik, Midas, Turbosound, and Behringer have all come together to create something truly innovative that will change your live and studio workflow forever—welcome to ULTRANET. This revolutionary technology seamlessly transmits up to 16 independent channels of 24-bit digital audio and control data via a single shielded Cat 5e cable between compatible digital devices, including mixers, I/O stage boxes, powered loudspeakers, and personal monitoring systems. Advantages realized through ULTRANET digital networking, versus traditional analog methods, include: all audio signals are impervious to Radio Frequency Interference (RFI); signal crosstalk is eliminated, and ease of uses translates directly into a significant amount of time saved during show setup or installation. ULTRANET effectuates a powerful digital eco-system that gives you unparalleled ease of deployment, performance, and control for Behringer P16 Personal Monitoring Systems and Turbosound iQ Speaker Series.

Klark Teknik SuperMAC (AES50-Compliant) technology gives the DL32 its high-capacity, ultralow latency digital interconnectivity as well as superbly simple deployment and ease of use. Klark Teknik engineers worked hand-in-hand with Behringer to ensure the DL32 meets, or exceeds, the requirements of live entertainers and their professional audio engineers. Some of the outstanding features are:FEATURES

• 48 bidirectional audio channels over Cat 5e cable (48 kHz)
• Single cable duplex interconnection for audio and sample clocks
• Ethernet physical layer audio data transmission
• High channel count and ultralow deterministic latency
• Accurate phase-aligned clock distribution.
• Comprehensive error detection and management
• Provision for redundant networking
• Minimal configuration—total ease of deployment and use
• Ethernet TCP/IP protocol-compatible auxiliary data channel
• Royalty-free implementations available as Xilinx FPGA cores
• OEM modules available from developer partners
