Allen & Heath strengthens dLive ecosystem with 4 new products
The IP6 and IP8 are next generation remote controllers for dLive, widening the system’s flexibility in installations and live sound. They interface with the dLive mixing system via standard TCP/IP connections and can be networked with other controllers, computers and third party devices using a standard Ethernet infrastructure. The IP6 provides 6 push ‘n turn rotary encoders and colour LCD displays, 19 programmable soft keys, and mic stand mounting options. The IP8 provides 8 motorised faders and colour LCD displays, and 23 programmable soft keys. Both can be configured with up to 6 layers for access to a large number of channels. They support PoE / PoE+ respectively, which gives installers and users the convenience of a single CAT5 cable for control and power.
The IP controllers bring even more diverse control options to the dLive family, and are ideal for applications such as personal monitoring, or in installations requiring limited control for day-to-day operators,” says Allen & Heath product manager, Nicola Beretta. “These flexible little units can operate as a standalone controller in conjunction with a dLive MixRack, and work well alongside the dLive Director software.”
The Waves V3 audio networking card takes full advantage of the dLive I/O Port architecture, providing a 128×128 channel, 48/96kHz interface to the Waves SoundGrid platform. Alongside plugin processing and audio distribution, it offers a super convenient way of recording 128 tracks of 96kHz audio to a Windows or Mac computer, over a single CAT cable.
The gigaACE card provides a 128×128 channel 96kHz point-to-point redundant link to another dLive mixing system. With no PC required, it is a truly plug ‘n play solution for digital split applications, that is also cost-effective and has ultra-low latency.
