DX012 provides remote output expansion for Qu*, SQ, Avantis and dLive mixers, and for AHM audio matrix processors. Perfect for feeding IEM systems and amplifier racks with both analogue and AES digital output options in a compact 1U form factor.
*96kHz Qu models only
Outputs
12 XLR Outs
Flexible switching between balanced relay protected analogue and stereo AES digital on outputs 5–12.
Digital
AES Compatible
AES outputs globally switchable between 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz or 96kHz.
Connectivity
Redundant & Cascade
Redundant mode supports dual-cable connection to compatible hardware. Cascade mode allows daisy-chaining of up to 2 DX Expanders per DX port.
Setup
Plug-and-Play
No configuration required — just connect to your mixer. Firmware updates handled automatically by the host.
Analogue + AES
Need More Outputs?
The DX012 provides 12 XLR outputs with three flexible configuration options to suit your setup:
- 12 analogue line outputs
- 8 analogue line outputs + 4 stereo AES outputs
- 4 analogue line outputs + 8 stereo AES outputs
Flexibility
Put It Where You Need It
The DX012 can be placed up to 100m from the mixer via a single Cat5e cable with a secure EtherCon connection. A second locking EtherCon port provides redundant connection or daisy-chaining to a downstream DX Expander for additional remote I/O.
Format
Compact 1U Design
Integrated rack ears allow mounting in a 1U 19" space. Whether you're feeding an IEM rack at front-of-house, driving amplifier stacks at the side of stage or distributing audio across a venue, DX012 fits neatly into any rig.
