Midas

The DL151 delivers legendary MIDAS sound quality in a cost effective, discrete 2U chassis that utilises time-tested and proven MIDAS technologies. Equipped with 24 channels of MIDAS premium mic-pre amplifiers with 2.5 dB gain steps and dual redundant AES50 networking ports, the DL151 is the ideal partner to the PRO 1 / PRO 2 digital consoles - significantly increasing the network capacity and number of mic inputs.

User interface controls and feedback is via an intuitively laid out front panel. The controls and LED indicators provide ease of use and instant feedback at a glance. All primary connections use high quality balanced XLR connectors.

Housed in a road-ready, rugged 19" 2U rack-mountable chassis, the DL151 is ideally suited for storage in standard flight cases (not included).
