Product Details DX4.0
DX4.0 combines a four-input, eight-output loudspeaker controller and system matrix. Its converters and DSP run at 96 kHz, supporting the nominally flat response beyond 40 kHz described by Martin Audio.
Ethernet provides VU-NET remote control and monitoring, while the front panel gives local access. Four analogue/AES3 inputs and eight analogue/AES outputs are available, with AES3 connections selected in pairs.
Dante supports network-audio distribution with automatic fallback to analogue or AES3. Incoming analogue or AES audio can also be converted to Dante, allowing the controller to serve as a network-audio entry point and a front-of-house matrix feeding iKON amplifiers.
Each input offers high-pass filtering, three shelving filters and six parametric filters. Outputs provide crossover filtering, two shelving filters and eight parametric filters, alongside the specified delays and all-pass facilities. The limiter suite combines peak, RMS and excursion protection with multiband limiting for passive two-way loudspeakers; this is the basis of the published VX limiting feature.
FIR filters support O-Line optimisation. DX4.0 also works with U-Hub to deliver digital audio and network data to a supported MLA array or subwoofer array over one cable. The published global mains range is 100–240 V, 50/60 Hz.
