The DS8000 is a 2U, 8 input to 32 output mic/line distribution system with 16 transformer balanced isolated outputs, and 16 electronically balanced outputs fitted as standard. Input transformers and replacement of the electronically balanced outputs with transformer balanced outputs are available as options. Featuring microphone pre-amps designed by Gottelier award winning Alex Cooper, the DS8000 offers many facilities including a dual redundant power supply, simple Outside Broadcast “one to many” split switching and 48V “safe“ functions to prevent tampering. Subtle panel lighting for dark under-stage environments and the option of adding an ADC card for integration into digital networks, plus bespoke new output transformers all combine to produce a flexible, rugged high quality distribution system.

Input transformers and replacement of the electronically balanced outputs with transformer balanced outputs are available as options. DS8000D provides more flexibility with 2 x 8 AES outputs, with wordclock sync and master clock out. Featuring reassuring XTA quality ADCs operating at 48, 96 or 192k, this is all available in addtiion to the already comprehensive analogue output makeup.
