DM1624F

16x24 Digital Matrix Processor
Routes any combination of 16 mic/line inputs to 24 outputs with adjustable gain at every crosspoint.

Advanced DSP on All Channels
Each input features 6 filters, compressor, delay, and automatic digital feedback elimination (ADFE); each output includes 9 filters, compressor/limiter, and delay.

Proportional Gain Auto Mixing
Uses patented AutoSkew™ to eliminate gating artifacts and comb filtering in multi-mic environments.

Output-Level Mixing Flexibility
Each output has its own NOM (Number of Open Microphones) bus, allowing tailored mixes for each destination.

Mic/Line Switchable Outputs
8 of the 24 outputs can be switched to mic level for direct connection to other audio devices or recorders.

Full DSP Availability
All processing functions are always available without DSP limitations thanks to Optimized Architecture™.

Extensive Automation with Macros
Store up to 128 macros, each supporting up to 64 commands for powerful system automation.

Robust Control and Integration
USB, RS-232, and Ethernet interfaces support LecNet2, AMX®, Crestron®, and third-party control.

Expandable with Daisy Chaining
Digital I/O ports allow connection with other LecNet2 devices for larger system builds.

Reliable Performance with Fan Cooling
Continuous fan cooling ensures stable operation in demanding installations.
