Product Description

Behringer's first digital console offers a feature set you won't find in any other product in its class. In fact, you won't find some of the DDX3216's features in any compact digital console.

Start with its 32 channels, 16 internal busses, and 8 aux sends. Each channel features a fully parametric 4-band equalizer, sweepable high-pass filter, gate, compressor/limiter, and phase inversion - all simultaneously operable. The first 16 channels additionally offer a delay function. Add 4 onboard effects processors that put just about any imaginable effect type at your fingertips, naturally in top quality and also simultaneously accessible. Then full-fledged dynamic and static automation functions, extensive synchronization options and MIDI implementation, a comprehensive internal I/O patchbay, full digital compatibility, and functionality. Plus unusually flexible connectivity and expandability, supported via 2 expansion slots for ADAT, TDIF, AES/EBU interfaces, and more. All based on 32-bit floating-point processing (40-bit for the EQ's).

Imagine all of this in a rack-mountable case and with an intuitive, logically laid out user interface based on excellent software and effective control elements, like motorized ALPS¬ faders, assignable channel controls with LED rings, push-and-turn master controllers, and a large, backlit LCD display, and you begin to get the picture. A picture that fits perfectly in so many applications, we can't list them all here: recording, live sound, multimedia, audio for video, broadcasting, installations, etc.

The DDX3216 may not fully re-define digital mixing, but it goes a long way towards giving compact digital mixers a new meaning.
