DHD – Broadcast Consoles for You


A broadcast console is not ‘just the mixing desk’ any longer. In today’s studios, it is the main command centre not only for audio, but also for many other systems needed to run the show. With DHD systems, you are in control – always.


DHD SYSTEMS – FLEXIBLE AND MODULAR


Our philosophy is simple: “Make it powerful, but easy to use.” DHD products are a successful combination of rock-solid hardware and sophisticated software. All devices are based on the same hardware platform, and allow you to choose the matching modules for your specific application. Of course, you can easily adapt or extend your DHD systems in the future. Our products consist of several compact modules for different tasks: Core modules contain both audio signal processing and logic control – they are the heart of any DHD system. I/O modules are responsible for getting signals in and out of the system – they are available in different versions to meet your requirements. For control, you can choose from several mixer consoles and single control modules. The dedicated hardware inside all modules uses very little power, there are no PCs and no hard disks inside.


RJ45 – MAKING THE NET WORK


All modules of a DHD system are connected to each other with standard CAT cables. They carry audio and control signals, as well as PoE (Power over Ethernet) to power console modules – all in one cable. Audio signals are connected via analogue or AES inputs, MADI, or the 3G/HD SDI De-embedder. In networked installations,

Core modules transport multi-channel audio (up to 512 audio channels) between each other over fibre optics connected to special DHD Gigabit Audio Ports. If you need Audio-Over-IP connectivity, we


provide the 52/XC Dante IP Audio Interface. This module works as a bridge between any Dante enabled system (hardware or software) and DHD devices (see inset on next page). There is also an Ethernet connection with


TCP/IP available. This is typically used for configuration, remote control, and to connect special DHD software to the hardware devices. To integrate other systems, you can use GPIO connections as well as the open DHD Control Protocol on TCP/IP.


52/SX – COMPACT CONSOLE


This compact console includes everything you need for building audio workstations, small to mid-sized On-Air studios or OB vans. Community and college radio stations can use the 52/SX as their main console, thanks to its attractive pricing. The 52/SX is a complete console, which needs very little space. It is a real turn-key system; but there are software options available to extend its functionality in larger set-ups.


The console desk consists of a central control


module, up to 16 faders, and a seven-inch TFT Touch Display. You can mount the modules flat within the furniture or put them in at a slight angle on a table. Fader modules can also be split-mounted. The signal processing modules of the 52/SX are just 1U high and provide inputs for microphones, headphones, analogue and digital signals. There are GPIO ports available, as well as two USB connectors that work as pro grade USB sound cards on your PC.


52/SX. Compact and good value.
