DiGiCo S31 Rack Pack with S31 Digital Console / DMI-DANTE2 / A168D Rack x3

The DiGiCo S31 Rack Pack includes the S31 Digital Console, a DMI-DANTE2 module, and three A168D racks, providing a robust audio solution for live sound applications.

S31 Digital Console

Favoured by multitudes of sound engineers worldwide, the S31 brings DiGiCo ownership within easy reach, offering flagship audio quality, power, and flexibility in a compact frame that’s easy to transport. With its increased functionality and accessibility, the S31 opens doors to limitless mixing creativity at an astonishing price point.

The S31’s expanded work surface is as intuitive as it is familiar, featuring three 10-inch multi-touch screens across three banks of 10 faders, providing clear visual feedback and control of 30 channels simultaneously. Boasting 48 flex-channels, 16 busses, and 96kHz performance, the S31 is fully deserving of the DiGiCo badge.

Based on the same pioneering design as the industry-leading SD-Range, the S31 employs the same proprietary algorithms and introduces a new ARM QuadCore RISC processor that works in harmony with the FPGA core. This combination delivers faster processing with lower power consumption, all within the trusted workflow that top engineers rely on—now available to everyone.

DMI-DANTE2

The DiGiCo DMI-DANTE64@96 allows 64 channels in and 64 channels out at both 48kHz and 96kHz. It has a Primary and a Secondary port, both of which are Ethercon ports, and an RJ45 Control port. The card has two modes that can be changed in Dante Controller. In Switched Mode, the three ports are switched together. In redundant mode, the Control and Primary ports shall be switched together and work as a redundant pair with the Secondary port, each having separate IP addresses so that if the primary connection fails, the secondary connection will take over.
