Chapter 2: PRO Series Live Audio
Systems
This chapter gives an overview of the PRO Series Live Audio Systems.
Introducing the PRO3
The PRO3 Live Audio System is an entry-level system that is ideally suited to situations
requiring tighter budgets, enabling more touring riders and professional installations to
take advantage of Midas’ digital features.
The PRO3 Live Audio System has 56 input channels with remote controlled mic
preamps, 27 buses and six stereo effects. It utilises the fixed format, 5U I/O rack of
the DL251 Audio System I/O and can be fully upgraded to the specification of a PRO6 or
PRO9.
I/O box options include the DL351 Modular I/O and DL451 Modular I/O with the full
range of module options (DL441 analogue input (mic) module, DL442 analogue output
module, DL443 analogue Jack I/O module, DL444 8 analogue mic in and 8 analogue
line out module and DL452 AES/EBU input and output module), and also the DL431 Mic
Splitter.
Introducing the PRO6
The PRO6 Live Audio System is a mid-range system that is the heart of the PRO Series.
It has 64 simultaneous input processing channels with up to 35 discrete mixes in
monitor mode. The PRO6 is expandable to 288 inputs and 294 outputs, all of which can
be patched/routed on a scene-by-scene basis by the powerful snapshot automation
system.
The I/O options include the fixed configuration DL251 Audio System I/O at the stage
box end to the DL431 Mic Splitter (24-channel x 5-way), with the full range of module
options (DL441 analogue input (mic) module, DL442 analogue output module, DL443
analogue Jack I/O module, DL444 8 analogue mic in and 8 analogue line out module
and DL452 AES/EBU input and output module).
Further flexibility can be added to the system by utilising a Klark Teknik DN9650
Network Bridge digital format converter offering MADI and Dante connectivity.
The PRO6 is fully upgradable to the specification of a PRO9.
Introducing the PRO9
The PRO9 Live Audio System is the top of the range system of the PRO Series. It has a
massive 88 channel input count with 35 buses. It has dual stage boxes to give the
flexibility of up to 200 m apart and 500 m from front of house (FOH). It has the full
range of I/O box options (DL251, DL351, DL431 and DL451), each with the full range of
module options (DL441 analogue input (mic) module, DL442 analogue output module,
DL443 analogue Jack I/O module, DL444 8 analogue mic in and 8 analogue line out
module and DL452 AES/EBU input and output module).
Further flexibility can be added to the system by utilising a Klark Teknik DN9650
Network Bridge digital format converter offering MADI and Dante connectivity.
