Digital Audio Denmark Core 256 w/DADlink
MPN #NTP-DADCORE256-DL
848 input and output channels digital router and monitoring interface
Core 256 may not take up much space, but the power you can squeeze out of this little box might just make your jaw drop to the floor. With tons of channels, a wide palette of digital connectivity, internal summing engine and drivers for macOS and Windows 10, it is a pristine digital audio interface by any measure and for just about any application.
However, there is one application that should be emphasized in particular: Core 256 is simply the perfect Dante and MADI interface for any demanding live sound application " be it FOH, Monitor Mix or redundant Playback Station powered by our Control | Pack functionality.
But of course, it can also do other things such as sharing a 1U rack shelf with a Mac Mini running Dolby Atmos Renderer, Dolby Atmos Production Suite or Dolby Atmos Mastering Suite.
For live sound, as well as immersive audio post production facilities, Core 256 will represent the missing link that streamlines and optimizes any multichannel workflows seamlessly.
