Expand your Midas and Behringer digital mixing consoles with up to 32 channels of bidirectional networked audio with the DN32-DANTE from Klark Teknik. Sporting both a primary and redundant secondary port, this I/O expansion card lets you easily integrate your mixer into existing IP network infrastructure.
Via the optional Dante Controller software, you can remotely configure your network with a Windows or macOS computer, while the Dante Virtual Soundcard program allows for multichannel recording and playback. With professional Dante audio networking, you get up to 48 kHz sampling of uncompressed digital audio, with low latency, synchronization, and flexible interoperability.
Connectivity and Redundancy
DN32-DANTE features two Gigabit Ethernet ports connected through an internal switch. This allows the simultaneous merging of Ethernet remote control data for your console with bidirectional multichannel audio streams on the same cable. When both the primary and secondary interfaces are connected, the secondary serves as a redundant connection, and is automatically activated should the primary connection become unavailable. Please note that Dante runs Gigabit or 100 MBit/s network infrastructure and requires QoS capable switches.
Clock Synchronization and Routing
The DN32-DANTE card features a high-precision word clock that can serve as the clock master for the Dante network and your console. Alternately, the console can provide the master word clock that is distributed to the Dante network. Dante supports Unicast and Multicast flows and allows for signal routings on a per-channel basis. All routings and device parameters can be controlled from anywhere in the network, and are exclusively made using the Dante Controller application, which is available free of charge at www.audinate.com.
Computer Audio Interface Option
The Dante Virtual Soundcard application, which is available for PC and Mac computers, allows streaming to and from Dante enabled devices on a networked personal computer, including remote recording or playback over standard IP infrastructure. Live recordings of up to 64 channels are possible by receiving signals from more than one mixing console. Windows WDM and ASIO, and Mac OS X Core Audio are supported to ensure low-latency signal handling by your PC.
