DAI-24 is a 2U rackmountable input module for the D-Mitri digital audio platform providing 24 channels of balanced mic-level or line-level analog input on XLR connectors. The DAI-24 includes a high-quality preamplifier and precision A/D conversion for each channel, as well as transport of converted channels over D-Mitri’s AVB-enabled Ethernet network.D-Mitri is a sophisticated digital audio platform which is the basis for a family of powerful modules aimed at providing comprehensive audio processing, matrix mixing and routing for a variety of professional audio applications, including theatrical and spectacle productions, theme parks, and active acoustics. D-Mitri systems feature an extremely flexible and highly programmable control scheme that can be customized by the user via the Python scripting language and Open Sound Control real-time protocol (both open-source tools) to accomplish even the most complex tasks. D-Mitri modules communicate using the Ethernet/AVB standard, which provides guaranteed QoS (quality of service) and very low-latency.Selections of D-Mitri modules can be assembled to provide nearly any configuration of digital or analog inputs and outputs and channels of processing. The DAI-24 facilitates applications requiring large numbers of analog inputs.The DAI-24’s analog input circuitry accepts a wide range of input signal levels, from –57 dBu to +26 dBu and exhibits 115 dB of dynamic range. Each input channel has gain, phantom power, and a -18 dB pad, all controllable from CueStation softwre. -Provides 24 mic-level or line-level analog inputs -Highresolution A/D conversion: up to 96 kHz sample rate at 24 bits. -Accepts very wide range of input signal levels. -Software controlled gain and phantom power for each input. -Integrates converted audio into D-Mitri’s Ethernet/AVB network. -Additional redundant AVB port
