Overview
The M-DL-AES10O-A is the 10out version of the Allen & Heath AES3 card for dLive and Avantis, with 10 stereo AES3 outputs (20 channels) on XLR connectors. It is built for feeding a whole PA system digitally: mains, subs, fills, delays and side fills to amps or processors with AES inputs.
The outputs can be set to 44.1, 48, 88.2 or 96 kHz to suit the downstream gear, and everything is patched from the I/O screen on the console.
Highlights
- 10 stereo AES3 outputs (20 channels) on XLR
- Outputs switchable 44.1, 48, 88.2 or 96 kHz
- Fits any dLive or Avantis I/O port
