XL8 Live Performance System
Touring
The touring version of the XL8 Live Performance System has been especially congured
for high prole concerts, festivals and major events. Main inputs are connected via DL431
remote control 5-way mic splitters which have three fully independent non-interacting
mic pres per input. Two of these are remote controllable (2.5dB steps) and the third is xed
gain, feeding out as analogue via isolating transformers. The two remote control mic pres
separately feed both Midas digital networks and analogue outputs. The DL431 units can
be shared by the FOH and monitor XL8 consoles providing a cost eective system but still
retaining independent analogue mic pre remote gain control for the two engineers. Both
Midas digital network connections are duplicated for redundancy and the DL431 also has
dual-redundant power supplies.
Audio outputs are routed to any of the 5 supplied DL451 congurable I/O units, each of
which can have up to 24 outputs and 24 inputs depending on I/O card options tted.
Any DL451 (and DL431) unit can be up to 100m from either the stage router or FOH
location. The stage router can be up to 500m from FOH. All of these connections are dual
redundant, as are the network routers.
