About Midas DL16

After more than 40 years of design experience, the DL16 16 Input and 8 Output Stage Box with 16 Midas Mic Preamps stands as a testament to the renowned MIDAS sound. This stage box features 16 award-winning MIDAS PRO microphone preamplifiers, known for their warmth, depth, and ability to capture a precise sound image. These preamps, the very same found in the highly-acclaimed PRO Series consoles, have inspired generations of live sound engineers worldwide.

The DL16 is equipped with eight electronically balanced low impedance line level outputs, designed by MIDAS engineers to handle both balanced and unbalanced signals. This design eliminates worries about signal degradation, noise, and crosstalk interference. The stage box also boasts dual Cirrus Logic Digital to Analogue converters, which reduce noise floor and lower distortion, and post-DAC filtering to remove wide-band noise.

For in-ear applications, the DL16 offers ULTRANET personal monitoring system connectivity. This feature allows each performer to control their own monitor mix, freeing you to focus on delivering a flawless sonic experience to your audience.

The DL16 also comes with dual ADAT outputs, making it compatible with a wide range of ADAT-compatible outboard devices. This makes it a versatile choice for splitter mode and stand-alone digital multicore applications.

For larger setups, the DL16 features dual AES50 ports, allowing for cascading of multiple units without the need for a merger or router. Up to three DL16s can be daisy-chained to deliver 48 channels in and 24 out to the stage, all over a single shielded (STP) CAT5 cable.

Remote operation is made easy with the DL16's ability to communicate up to 100m via CAT5/5e cable. This stage box also offers programmable settings from front panel controls or console, status indicator LEDs on the front panel, and a headphones output assignable to any of the inputs or outputs for on-stage monitoring.

The DL16 also supports bidirectional communication between the FOH console and on-stage MIDI devices via MIDI In/Out, making scene automation a breeze.

Built for durability, the DL16 is housed in a rugged 2U rackmount chassis, making it ideal for portable applications. It also features Neutrik etherCON AES50 and ULTRANET network ports, ensuring a high-quality signal path from start to finish.

Designed and engineered in England, the DL16 16 Input and 8 Output Stage Box with 16 Midas Mic Preamps is a testament to MIDAS's commitment to delivering superior sound quality and versatility in live sound and recording applications.
