Overview

Eight Channels of Analog Summing, Transparent Monitoring

Description

The Dangerous Music D-Box Summing Monitor Mixer and D/A Convertor is a 1U rack mountable device designed by mastering engineers to integrate the functions of a summing mixer, a monitoring system with talkback, and a dedicated digital to analogue convertor.

For summing, the back of the unit features a 25-pin D-sub connector for feeding eight channels of analogue inputs into the mixer. You adjust the panning position and level of each channel within your Digital to Audio Workstation and then the overall level of the stereo analogue sum using the unit's sum output volume control. You can then send the sum through a balanced XLR pair of stereo sum outputs back through your analogue to digital convertor and into your DAW.

For monitoring, the unit features two stereo pairs of balanced XLR outputs for your monitors and alternate reference speakers. An alt speaker button on the front of the unit allows you to toggle between the two outputs, and an array of input selection buttons allows you to choose from the mixer sum, a stereo pair of analogue inputs, or one of two AES/SPDIF lockable digital inputs from a source such as a DAW or CD player.

A mono function button combines the left and right channels in the monitors and a left and right panning knob allows you to reposition the mix in stereophonic space. Eight LEDS on the front of the unit indicate the presence of your incoming signal. A volume control allows you to adjust the overall output signal to your monitors or alternate reference speakers.

The device includes two independent 20W headphone amplifiers with 1/4" TRS jacks and independent volume controls. A talkback microphone, talkback remote jack for footswitch operation, and front panel talk back function button enable you to address the artist through their headphones. A DC input on the back of the unit and external power supply allow the unit to operate at a cooler temperature. The device is meticulously hand-built in the USA to mastering standards.
