3. dLive C Class is the digital mixing system that offers
value driven rental companies, corporate AV
specialists, houses of worship and theatres a powerful,
flexible mixing solution in an accessible, compact
format.
4. XCVI
dLive is founded on XCVI Core next generation FPGA
technology, with 36 parallel virtual processing cores
generating enough power for 160×64 channels of
processing at 96kHz sampling rate.
5. XCVI
DEEP
Our DEEP processing embeds class-leading
compressors and processing emulations directly within
input + mix channels. An array of bespoke GEQs and
Compressors can be inserted on the fly without burning
FX slots and without the setup, latency and licence
hassles of external plug-ins.
6. DEEP
HARMONY UI
dLive’s 12” touchscreens are framed by colour matched
rotary controls, allowing the creativity and immediacy of
tactile control over key processing functions, working in
harmony with the visual feedback displayed on the
screen.
12. • Compact, portable design
• Includes the first dLive 19” rack mountable console
• 100% compatibility with full dLive ecosystem
• Aggressive pricing brings dLive features and audio quality in
reach for wider range of customers and applications
14. WHY DLIVE C CLASS BEATS MIDAS PRO2
Sheer power. dLive C Class is capable of mixing of up to 144 sources and 62
mixes. The Pro 2 is way behind, with only 64 sources and 24 mixes max.
Next Gen FPGA. dLive C Class is founded on the 96kHz XCVI FPGA core,
allowing full phase coherency and an ultra low latency of 0.7ms. Midas employs
DSP processing and achieves a system latency of 1.79ms but in phase coherent
mode it jumps to an unacceptable 8.49ms.
Fit for a networked world. dLive C Class is a networking hub, with each I/O Port
providing 128 inputs and 128 outputs, all independently assigned and accepting a
broad range of cards for all the major protocols. Midas Pro2 comes with no ports
as standard, requiring a very expensive external convertor unit.
Touchscreen UI. The single or twin 12” touchscreens are a key element of dLive’s
acclaimed Harmony UI, providing a faster, more intuitive way to mix. Midas Pro 2
has no touchscreen and employs an antiquated trackball navigation system!
15. Sheer power. dLive C Class is capable of mixing of up to 144 sources and 62
mixes. Yamaha doesn’t even come close, with a maximum of just 80 sources
and 32 mixes on the largest CL5 mixer.
Next Gen FPGA. dLive C Class is founded on the 96kHz XCVI FPGA core,
allowing an ultra low latency of 0.7ms and enabling our DEEP processing
embedded plugins. Yamaha uses previous generation 48kHz DSP processing
in its QL and CL series, which both have a typical latency of 2.5ms.
Fit for a networked world. dLive C Class is a networking hub, scaling up to
hundreds of system inputs and outputs and catering for all major audio
networking protocols and technologies. Each I/O Port provides 128 inputs and
128 outputs, all independently assigned. Yamaha’s ports are limited to just 16
channels.
WHY DLIVE C CLASS BEATS YAMAHA QL / CL
As ambitious as rock n roll but nobody welcomes big Mix Position.
One in every town. Not meeting riders. Local gov, schools, festivals, sorporate work. Need ROI, looks the part and portability – often 2 guys with van.
Can match the scope of churches’ ambitions within their budgets. And with the user permissions, IP remotes and ME personal mixers dLive C Class allows less experienced users to get outstanding results.
Reduced height and footprint limits number of seats occupied and inobtrusive. Portable and versatile in multi-function environments. Perfect for schools. Over to Nic
Competitive landscape. Reference comp chart.
C Class against QL/CL, Roland in the corporate AV world and install, Midas Pro2 in the regional rental market.
