*DiGiCo S31Mixing Console

The DiGiCo S31 is a 48 channel mixing console with 31 physical faders and 3 x 10 multitouch screens. Using state-of-the-art FPGA technology, the S31 provides the same high quality audio as the legendary SD-Range.

DiGiCo S-Series

DiGiCo consoles are used on many of the biggest live sound tours and events around the world and the compact S-Series made this pedigree of audio performance available to every part of the industry, with Stealth Digital Processing introducing a new standard of audio quality, power and flexibility not seen before at its price point.

Favoured by multitudes of sound engineers all over the world, the S31 brings DiGiCo ownership within easy reach of everyone with flagship audio quality, power and flexibility all in a compact frame that will travel easily in a car. With its increased functionality and accessibility, the S31 opens even more doors to limitless mixing creativity, at an astonishing price point.

The S31s expanded work surface is as intuitive as it familiar, with three 10-inch multi-touch screens over three banks of 10 faders, giving clear visual feedback and control of 30 channels simultaneously. With 48 flex-channels, the equivalent of 16 busses and benchmark 96kHz performance, the S31 is in every sense worthy of the DiGiCo badge.

Based on the same pioneering design approach as the industry-leading SD-Range, the S31 boasts the same proprietary algorithms plus a new ARM QuadCore RISC processor which runs in harmony with the FPGA core. The result is faster processing with lower power consumption, all packaged in the workflow that the industrys most respected engineers rely upon now available to everyone.

Under The Hood

Familiar to the touch and built for the road, the S31 offers mixing without limits. The integration of a high power QuadCore SoC with high bandwidth memory, a low power 484-ball array FPGA and a fourth-generation control SHARC DSP offers unprecedented power today as well as the potential for a future processing upgrade path. The compact footprint of the S31 has no relationship to the scale of processing power going on under the polycarbonate worksurface.

Visual feedback is further reinforced by the HTL (Hidden Till Lit) functionality of the encoder rings, while parameters currently not in use are automatically greyed out, always drawing your attention to the right controls.

The triple screens aim to aid the new user learning curve and remove distractions by not only giving you more channels to view at any one time, but also allowing one screen to be used as a setup or master whilst the others are utilised for operation. All touchscreens are responsive to EQ shaping, with fine-tuning available via the tactile and intuitive rotary encoders.

Altering the Channel Bank layout, and mixing and matching any channel, aux, group, control group, or matrix within a bank, is easily accomplished by drag and drop at the touch of a screen.

I/O

The consoles rear panel offers 24 Mic inputs and 12 Line outputs, a UB MADI interface for DAW recording, in addition to dual DMI (DiGiCo Multichannel Interface) option card slots, interfacing to industry formats such as Analogue, MADI, Dante, Waves SoundGrid, or Calrecs Hydra 2 Network.

Get instant access to 32 fully integrated low-latency Waves stereo MultiRacks, each with up to eight plug-ins per rack, by fitting the DiGiCo Waves SoundGrid DMI card linked to external SoundGrid or DiGiGrid servers, giving a total of 128 additional I/O.However, you should ch

*DiGiCo X-D2-AN-M D2-RACK with 48-Channel XLR and BNC MADI Connection

Delivering 96KHz on BNC

The D2-Rack spearheads DiGiCos digital connectivity with an expandable channel count and high sample rates, providing more than enough firepower to meet the needs of the most ambitious projects.

The compact 9U rack sports 48 inputs and 16 outputs as standard; these can be increased to 32 outputs by populating the two spare eight channel output slots with one or more of three available module options: Line out, AES or Aviom.

For further flexibility, the D2-Racks inputs can be specified as either 48 mic in or 24 mic/24 AES/EBU in.

Dual MADI ports, available on either BNC or DiGiCo Cat5e connections, either allow rack sharing at 48kHz between any two SD Series consoles or provide digital splits for recording. When combined, these ports create a single high definition 96kHz MADI connection with absolutely no reduction in I/O.

To ensure ultimate reliability the D2-Rack is equipped with dual redundant power supplies as standard.

• 9U MADI connected high performance rack
• Option of 48 Mic In or 24 Mic/24 AES/EBU In

*DiGiCo MOD-DMI-MADI-C 56/64 Channel MADI I/O 96 kilohertz Expansion Card with 2x EtherCON Connectors

DMI-MADI-C

This card can be used to connect another DiGiCo device that uses RJ45 Standard MADI (64 channels in and out) at 48KHz or 96KHz or an SD Series DiGiCo Rack with the appropriate connector (D-Rack, D2-Rack)

MADI (Multichannel Audio Digital Interface) is arguably one of the most popular protocols for transmitting high channel counts in professional audio. This is partially due to its ease of use, and the ability for cables to be run long lengths with minimal signal loss. Originally only capable of transmitting 56 channels, MADI is now capable of transmitting up to 64 channels.

DiGiCo offers two MADI DMI cards, each with different connector types. Both the MADI-B (BNC) and the MADI-C (RJ45) cards can be used to connect up to 64 channels of audio in and out at both 48kHz and 96kHz. At 96kHz, the B connection must be connected to provide the full channel count.

Main Features

• RJ45 connection
• 64 channels in and out at 48kHz and 96kHz
• Only for use with DiGiCo audio over Cat5 devices
• Internal switches to determine whether connected to a console or a rack
• Compatible with S-Series, Quantum Range, SD12, Orange Box and 4REA4
