MIDAS DL152-UL 24 Output Stage Box (DL152-UL)

The DL152 emerges as a stalwart 2U 19" fixed-configuration rack I/O unit, boasting 24 line-level outputs and channeling the heralded Midas sound quality through battle-tested technologies forged by time and road-worn experience. Its arsenal includes two AES50 network ports, standing as guardians of redundancy, rendering the DL152 the quintessential companion to all Midas PRO and M32 Series digital consoles. It seamlessly weaves a digital serpentine link from the Front of the House to the stage, amplifying connectivity and fortifying the backbone of audio transmission.

Digital Audio Networking

The SuperMAC technology, compliant with AES50 standards and championed by Klark Teknik, stands as a paragon in digital audio networking. It orchestrates a symphony of high channel counts, ultra-low and predictable latencies, precise sample-synchronized clock distribution across networks, fortified by error detection and correction mechanisms, redundant network pathways, and seamless deployment—a perfect resonance with the exacting demands of live concert tours. The DL152 aligns seamlessly within this ecosystem, offering compatibility with all Midas digital consoles, audio system engines, and any other devices equipped with AES50 technology. This interoperability serves as a bridge, unifying diverse components into a cohesive audio network, ensuring a seamless flow of data and unparalleled ease of integration.

High Output Drive Line Outputs with Mute

The DL152 stands distinguished with its array of 24 active servo-balanced low-impedance line level outputs, empowered with robust output current capabilities tailor-made for traversing extensive cable distances. These outputs boast an intelligent automatic mute feature, poised to gracefully silence in tandem with the actions of the mixing console operator. Further enhancing its functionality, individual LED indicators adorn each output connector, offering visual cues and precise monitoring for each channel's status—a testament to its meticulous design and attention to detail.

96 kHz or 48 kHz Operation

DL152 supports multiple sample rates for the AES50 connections - 96 kHz for use with Midas PRO Series, and 48 kHz for use with Midas M32 Series.

Remote Console or Front Panel Control

The DL152 epitomizes ease and control, offering the flexibility to configure settings remotely from the mixing console or directly through an intuitively designed front panel interface. Its front panel boasts an LCD that facilitates seamless navigation through configuration options, complemented by LED status indicators that offer crystal-clear feedback on operational status. Crafted for optimal visibility across wide angles and distances, these indicators convey precise information regarding power supply output conditions and monitor the status and activity of AES50 and Ethernet network connections. This comprehensive display ensures at-a-glance oversight and effortless management of crucial system functionalities.

Built for the Road

Encased within a robust steel 2U rackmount housing, the DL152 stands as a testament to resilience, meticulously crafted to endure the demanding landscape of live concert touring. Its architecture incorporates premium Neutrik connectors, a hallmark of reliability ensuring steadfast audio and network connections, night after night, amidst the rigors of performance. This fortified design promises unwavering durability, poised to withstand the trials of each concert, maintaining pristine connectivity and unwavering performance.
