ALLEN & HEATH iDR-8 | MATRIX MIXER

The iDR is a 16 x 16 matrix mixer with an extensive array of audio management tools designed to reduce the need for additional devices to be specified for an installation, or carried in the hire inventory. Pedigree ALLEN& HEATH preamps, 24bit converters and fixed DSP architecture ensure that concert-quality low-latency sound is delivered efficiently to where it is needed. iDR SERIES. WHY IS IT SO USEFUL? Network control The main iDR units can be easily controlled and programmed with anEthernet connection to a PC [ or MAC running OSX & PC simulator] Preset System iDR provides a system of up to 250 presets for total recall of system settings. PL-Anet The PL Series is the perfect interface between the iDR and the operators on site, providing simple, non-technical switch, indicator display, fader, IR and encoder control options. Furthermore, as the requirements grow at an installation, the control system can too. Automatic Level Management iDR is equipped with several powerful modules to manage a distributed sound system, so an operator or technician doesn’ t always need to be present. Expandability As the system requirements grow, additional iDR units or expanders can be added to suit the budget and application. Audio Quality Low latency [ 2.23ms from input to output] and a fixed DSP architecture ensures that the iDR system will distribute coherent audio no matter how many modules of DSP are used in the system. Signal Processing The iDR-4 & iDR-8 signal processing architectures provide 16 channels of input processing and 16 channels of output processing, centred around the 16x16 mix matrix. Using the DSP patchbays, the user can configure these channels to either analogue inputs/ outputs or to channels on the digital audio expansion port. iDR-8 16 X 16 Matrix Mixer • iDR DSP system • 16 processing channels ( inputs and outputs) • 8 analogue mic/ line inputs on XLR with 48V phantom power • 8 analogue line outputs on XLR • iDR-8ST version also available, with XLRs replaced by Euroblock ( Phoenix) connectors • 2 line inputs on TRS jack • 2 line outputs on TRS jack • Digital audio expansion ports ( 8 channels in, 8 channels out) • Hot Plug‘ n’ Play PL Series remote controllers • High Quality Audio Signal Path and DSP processing • Headphone monitor with mouse and ripple-through capability • MIDI In/ Out/ Thru connections
