DN4888 - Overview

Breakout Box with 8 Balanced XLR Line In and 8 Balanced XLR Line Out for StageConnect Systems!

The Midas DN4888 is the perfect solution for connecting additional equipment to your monitor or FOH console. It provides 8 additional analog in and outputs to enable for 8 analog inserts or the connection to wireless devices, like 8 wireless microphones and 8 wireless in-ear systems.

The StageConnect interface can be connected to other StageConnect devices using a single XLR cable for multi-channel audio transmission. There are various I/O options available providing easily scalable connectivity in your side rack. The devices of the DN48XX Series can be daisy-chained and will negotiate the channels for their respective connectivity automatically.

The DN48XX Series is the first generation of I/O Interfaces for the new StageConnect ecosystem. StageConnect was introduced with the Behringer WING mixing console. Even though the DN48XX Series was designed with the WING console in mind the devices can be used with all StageConnect devices like HUB4. The StageConnect Ecosystem opens a wide field of audio devices. May it be several I/O devices spread over the Stage or equipment in the siderack - the use cases for the DN48XX Series StageConnect Interfaces are virtually endless.

StageConnect - The Future of XLR!
What if any standard XLR or DMX cable could be used to transmit more than one channel of audio? What if that cable could transmit signals not only one way, but bi-directionally? What if that cable would allow the passage of control data at the same time? What if a connected StageConnect device could receive up to 18W of power through that same cable?

Well, these capabilities are exactly what StageConnect delivers - a new interface standard to be released by Music Tribe after two years of development. The Midas DN48XX Series is one of the first available I/O-Interfaces based on the StageConnect-Standard. This new standard comes with outstanding technical specs: 32 channels of uncompressed PCM audio in various I/O configurations, 24-bit at 48kHz, below 0.05ms of latency. For optimum performance and long cable runs 110Ω DMX cable is required.
