XL8 Live Performance System
Install
The Install Version of the XL8 Live Performance System has been especially 
congured to be cost eective for permanent installations. The I/O XLRs are replaced 
by high-density D-type connectors. Each of the four remote DL451 24 channel in and 
24 channel out I/O boxes can be separately placed up to 100m from the stage router 
unit, which can itself be up to 500m from the control surface. The DL444 I/O cards 
in the DL451 frame each have 8 channels of remote controlled MIDAS mic pre with 
2.5dB steps as well as 8 line level outputs.
This version is ideally suited to theatres, multi-purpose venues, house-of-worship 
(and touring applications where 5-way active mic split may not be required).
