The dLive S5000 is the mid-size S Class control surface, striking the balance between fader count and footprint that many touring and installed applications demand. With 28 faders across 6 layers and dual 12″ capacitive touchscreens, it gives engineers fast access to 168 assignable strips while pairing with any dLive MixRack over redundant gigaACE.
The S5000 connects to any dLive MixRack via gigaACE, providing redundant audio transport over standard Cat5e. The surface includes built-in audio I/O and audio networking ports, plus a DX link for connecting additional I/O expanders. Dual touchscreens allow independent screen layouts — run your channel processing on one screen and a meter bridge or scene list on the other.
