D3 All digital broadcast & AV mixing desk
The digital D3 is a true universal dual tasking broadcast mixer, designed with modern broadcast techniques in mind.
The latest versions also has an adjustable delay for up to 100 msec in the output to compensate for video latency in television systems.
It has all facilities you generally only find on very large and much more expensive units:
- 8 fader channels with 3 inputs each, independent dual stereo balanced and digital outputs.
- A bright, full color touch screen which is amazingly intuitive to operate.
- Equalizer, dynamics and all settings that can be stored per input in up to 32 presets
- Mono / stereo switching, phase reverse, M/S stereo, low-pass filter per channel.
- Prefade listening, fader start and the much appreciated button start.
- Straight forward general purpose remote contacts for easy interfacing of all kind of equipment or automation systems.
- Extensive monitoring, PPM meters.
- Programmable stereo busses for studio foldback or outside source feed,
- Telephone hybrid interfacing with TalkBack and even DTMF tone dialing.
With the dual outputs in combination with the very flexible AUX busses you can do a live broadcast and a recording at the same time! Recording a telephone conversation while on air with another broadcast is no problem. The unit is also perfectly suited for voice tracking while on-air. The possibility to connect up to 4 telephone hybrids makes it an ideal unit for sports broadcasts or call show.
The latest firmware version includes a built-in sine wave and pink noise generator, a 'signal present' indicator at the input faders and
an adjustable delay for up to 100 msec. at the outputs to compensate for video latency or to use in small PA systems.
All previously shipped mixing desks can be upgraded with this version.
