Allen & Heath is all about providing a diverse range of I/O options for use with their incredible digital consoles. These are their two newest all-in-one expander units!
The DX012

MSRP: $1,499.00 MAP: $1,199.00
The DX012 offers 12 XLR Outputs. Its outputs can be configured two ways! As 8 analogue + 4 stereo AES, or 4 analogue + 8 stereo AES outputs. A second unit can be cascaded, or a redundant connection can be made to compatible hardware.
Allen & Heath’s DX012 is a rack mountable 1U output expander for SQ and dLive consoles. It is a perfect solution for in-ear monitoring, or for the amplifier rack!
The GX4816

MSRP: $3,999.99 MAP: $3,599.99
Maybe just because we are audio nerds, but we were really excited about the release of this unit! The GX4816 offers a high input count, making it the perfect stage box for use with SQ and dLive consoles! It connects to your console via a single Cat5 cable run. What is really cool is its new 2 DX ports that allow for further expansion, or for you to use with a ME personal mixing system.
