Remotely Controllable Preamps Make Setup a Breeze
DL16’s ingenious monitoring/head amp control section allows you to select any of the 16 inputs,
8 bus outputs or P-16 output streams for immediate line checks. In addition to signal metering at the
stage box, you can also set individual input channel Gain, apply +48 V phantom power – and listen
directly to the input signal via headphones and much more. Once set, all con guration settings can
be locked at the console for total system security.
Dual AES50 Ports for Massive Connectivity
Connecting over a single shielded (STP) CAT5 cable, up to three DL16s can be daisy-chained to
deliver 48 channels in and 24 out to the stage. KLARK TEKNIK’s 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 bene ts both live and studio
recording applications, as well as post-production, broadcasting and audio routing infrastructure.
