Overview

Digitally Controlled Mixer

The DCM-1, provides any space-conscious sound installation with a high level of flexibility, but without the need of a PC. It is ideal for contractors/installers who require flexible routing of line & mic signals.

The analogue zoner, with its simple-to-use digital control interface, can be controlled remotely via multiple LCD digital controllers. Optional active input modules extend the flexibility further. The DCM-1 is Cloud's first ever microprocessor controlled multi zoner.

With traditional installer friendly analogue I/O and signal path, but giving the contractor the flexibility and adaptability of digital control the DCM-1 has the traditional simplicity of Cloud products, with far greater functionality.

A free PC-Software allows complete configuration of inputs, microphone priorities, system and paging mic priority set up and Installer Key (password) changes. Using the intuitive front panel control of the DCM-1 or using the DCM-1 Utility Tool allows quick and easy set up of the DCM-1 Digitally Controlled Mixer.
