The DL431 is a 6U 19” rack unit which provides 24 mic/line inputs. Each input feeds three separate preamps, two with separate remote and local gain controls, the third being fixed gain. The two preamps with gain controls feed separate ADCs which pass digital audio to the network. Four discrete AES50 outputs supply dual redundant digital audio to FOH and monitor XL8 systems and allow for easy routing to any third party AES50 device (eg HD recorder), via the DL461 routers.

Two balanced analogue splits (sourced post each mic amp) are provided on the rear panel. The third, fixed gain, preamp feeds a transformer isolated split on the front panel for recording or broadcast applications.
