LD Systems ZONE X 1208 Hybrid Architecture DSP Matrix, 12 IN/8 OUT

With its DSP hybrid architecture, the ZONE X 1208 can adapt your sound system for different circumstances and possible uses. Choose one of the different DSP templates and use the event scheduler to set up calendar-managed workflows with automated preset options. Everything you need: Twelve balanced mic/line inputs with low-noise microphone preamplifiers and separate switchable 48V phantom power as well as eight balanced line outputs are available. There are also eight GPI and GPO logic ports which can be used e.g. for automated processes and the integration of third-party devices. The front panel with only 1 RU looks very tidy. The ZONE X 1208 is easy to set up and manage via Ethernet with the universal software Xilica Designer (Mac/Windows) providing an overview of all connections and settings. Thanks to the additional REMOTE bus connection, the ZONE X 1208 is already equipped for future remote panels and paging microphones from LD Systems. An Ethernet + Dante card with 64 x 64 channels can be installed as an upgrade option for audio over IP applications. The Dante standard opens up a whole world of compatible devices from different manufacturers for all conceivable applications.
