The D816 console is a landmark in technology for the new radio studios with moderate budgets. D816 is the Digital Radio console with the lower cost of the international market, offering digital USB In/outs and balanced analog in/outs that cover all the needs for medium size radio studios. Or Production and News studios at large broadcasting stations in radio and TV. All faders are VCA controlled. It includes 3 telephone Hybrids; two for land lines and one for cellular telephone. All three are able to work in conference, included the cellular to phone conference, that none of the market consoles can manage.
     
 

The console has independent stereo outputs for AIR and Recordings. This way you can make two tasks at the same time. Four electronic VU-meters of comfortable reading indicate the levels of both outputs.

 
 
The connection of USB ports can be made in one or two computers. The visual indicator informs that the computer has recognized the console. If it indicates U4 there are 4 digital channels. Showing U8 it indicates 8 channels (2 stereo in PLAY and 2 stereo in REC). It has a VU-meter that indicates the microphone compression level, which allows you to have the same sound level for the three speaker's voices.
 

ETM-VCA Technology

Unlike other consoles, the D816 uses indirect control in all the audio channels. That is; the faders do not handle audio, but DC that commands a stereo amplifier of variable gain. The ETM-VCA technology and the use of the new Conductive Ceramic faders gives your radio more than 15 years of free maintenance operation and eliminates the noise caused by wearing down, even at the end of its life.

 

 

Phantom 48 V

All condenser microphones can be used with the D816, since it incorporates a 48 volts switching phantom power.

 

  The VU-meters turret of the console can be placed horizontally for transporting and being used at the most comfortable position by the operator
 
The D816 console is also unique by its dimensions. Electronic components of advanced technology allow us to assemble the thinner profile console at the market (about 15 mm). This feature avoids the need of cutting the operation desk for a comfortable operator's position
In fact, any desktop becomes in few minutes, a powerful Radio Studio. This allows to transmit some radio programs from the journalist's house, using the links that Solidyne offers (radio or Internet links)

 

 

The D816 console is designed for mobile use and quick installation, with standard connectors. XLR connectors for mic's; RCA for unbalanced lines and DIN-5 for stereo balanced lines.


 
 

Four independent outputs for Studio and Control Room monitors (loudspeakers and headphones) Balanced outputs for PGM and REC with stereo jacks 6,35 mm, RJ11 for 3 hybrids. Tally light (12V output). Connector to start external devices. 2 USB connections for one or two PC's
