Allen & Heath AH-DLIVE-DM64 dLive S Class MixRack 64x32 I/O, 128 x 64 FPGA, 3 option I/O, ME-1 port, Dual DX Expander Link, Hot Swap PSU

 The MixRack is the heart of any Allen & Heath dLive system. It houses the XCVI processing core complete with audio I/O, control and audio networking ports. It is typically connected to a dLive Surface, but can also be controlled at the same time as or even without a Surface using a laptop or iPad, Allen & Heath IP remotes or third party controllers via TCP/IP. There are 3 sizes of dLive MixRack available, with this model; the DM64, being a 64-input, 32-output version. All feature the same mix engine and differ only in the number of analog I/O. All models can work with the full 128 channels by adding DX expanders or patching digital sources. XCVI Core - The power of dLive emanates from the XCVI Core – using next generation FPGA technology - with 36 parallel virtual processing cores generating enough power for 160×64 channels of processing at 96kHz sampling rate. Six parallel mixing engines within the Core calculate over 10,000 cross points per sample, while the FPGA router has capacity for 3,000 x 3,000 audio paths. The massive power of XCVI (25 billion operations per second) allows dLive to deliver 128 full processing inputs and 16 stereo FX returns, a configurable 64 bus architecture, variable bit depth for ultimate precision and noise performance, a virtually infinite mix headroom thanks to a 96-bit accumulator, and class leading latency at an ultra-low 0.6ms. Deep Processing - DEEP processing architecture embeds class-leading compressors and processing emulations directly within dLive’s input and mix channels. An array of bespoke algorithms including Graphic EQs and Compressor models can be inserted on the fly without burning FX slots and without the setup, latency and license hassles associated with external plug-ins – right there, where you need them, whenever you need them. The compressor models capture the audio nuances and non-linear ballistics of industry classics, ranging from a Slow-Opto model, various RMS detection and soft knee circuits, through to super-fast peak and RMS-based compression/limiting devices.  Features  64 mic/line inputs, 32 line outputs XCVI 160×64 FPGA core: 96kHz sample rate Variable bit-depth for ultimate precision and noise performance Virtually infinite mix headroom thanks to 96-bit accumulator Class leading, ultra-low latency < 0.6ms 128 Input Channels with full processing 64 Mix Outputs with full processing Configurable 64 bus architecture (group, FX, aux, matrix, mains): LR, LCR and up to 5.1 mains mode Multiple PFLs 16 RackExtra FX with dedicated stereo returns 16 DCAs Specs INPUTS: Mic/Line XLR Inputs: Balanced XLR, +48V phantom power Mic/Line Preamp: Fully recallable Input Sensitivity: -60 to +15dBu Analog Gain: +5 to +60dB, 1dB steps Pad: -20dB Active PAD Maximum Input Level: +30dBu (PAD in) Input Impedance: >4kOhm (Pad out) >10kOhm (Pad in) Mic EIN: -127dB with 150 Ohm source Phantom Power indication: Per socket, internal or external phantom power sensing, triggered at 24V OUTPUTS: Analog XLR Outputs: Balanced, Relay protected Output Impedance: < 75 Ohm Nominal Output: +4dBu = 0dB meter reading Maximum Output Level: +22dBu Residual Output Noise: -92dBu (muted, 20-20kHz) -90dBu (muted, 20-40kHz) SYSTEM: Dynamic Range: 110dB System Signal to Noise: -92dB Frequency Response: 20Hz - 30 kHz +0/-0.8dB THD+N (analog in to out): 0.0015% @ + 16dBu output, 1kHz 0dB gain Headroom: +18dB Internal operating level: 0dBu dBFS Alignment: +18dBu = 0dBFS (+22dBu at XLR output) Meter Calibration: 0dB meter = .18dBFS (+4dBu at XLR out) Meter Peak indication: -3dBFS (+19dBu at XLR out) Sampling Rate: 96kHz ± -20 PPM ADC: 24-bit Delta-Sigma DAC: 24-bit Delta-Sigma Latency: < 0.6 ms (MixRack XLR in to XLR out, Input to Mix) + 5 samples, Surface to Mixrack (GigaACE hop) + 8 samples, DX32 to Mixrack (DX hop) Operating Temperature Range: 0° to 35° C (32°F to 95°F) Mains Power (MPS16): 100-240V AC, 47-63Hz, 300W max DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHTS (Width x Depth x Weight): Unboxed: 19" x 12.3" x 18" (482.6 x 313 x 458 mm) x 46 lbs.
