D&R BROADCAST MIXERS - Airlab DT

16 items

D&R Electronica have been designing and manufacturing broadcast mixing consoles since 1972. The consoles are designed for radio and television broadcast environments but are also at home in audio post-production studios.

Airlab DT is a digitally-controlled analogue, radio, on-air console. It is a modular design, so up to sixteen channels may be chosen to suit the needs of the station. Most channel modules have a choice of three, switched inputs including microphone and two line inputs; some have EQ. The telephone module includes a telephone hybrid and offers a clean feed output unique to that module, so any number up to 16, can be used. There are two main mixes, integrated talkback, AES digital output options and USB inputs and outputs for connection to an automation PC. The frame suits 'drop-through mounting' in a desk or console.

The mixer is available as a 'fully loaded' version or may be ordered as a selection of modules to be fitted to the frame with master section. It is 775mm wide by 415mm deep.


Airlab-DT Broadcast Mixer

Airlab-DT Broadcast mixer 'fully loaded' version (95-8671) is fitted with 6x Triple Input EQ Modules, 2x Triple Input Non EQ Modules, Master section, 1x Control Module USB, 4x Triple Input USB EQ, 2x Telephone Modules and software metering.


Airlab-DT 16 Frame

Airlab-DT 16 frame includes the frame and Master section. It may be loaded with modules to suit the requirements of the users

Master section

The Master section, in the centre of the console, has a recording output that can select its source from the sub or aux mix. There is a master control for the stereo aux mix, with an operator talkback button routing to that output. Within the control room section there are level controls for the operator headphones and the control room monitors. The source of this can be a selection or mix between an external input, the aux, sub, programme, or cue mix. There is a master control for the level of the sub mix, with a talkback button feeding the sub output and there are controls for links to the studio - where a presenter or guest(s) may be located. There are individual level controls for the studio monitors, guest headphones and announcer headphones, each with individual talkback buttons. The audio source can be the programme or sub mix, or can follow the control room. There is a control to adjust the level of the electret microphone on the upper panel.

The programme and sub mixes each have balanced, 3-pin XLR connectors for left and right outputs. Outputs for the studio monitor amplifier and two tape machines, as well as the 'aux' mix and 'cue out' are all available on individual pairs of RCA (phono) connectors. The 'Air In' and the 'external' monitoring inputs are also via pairs of unbalanced RCA (phono) sockets. The announcer and guest headphones outputs use stereo 6.35mm jack sockets and there are two 6.35mm jack sockets for 'On Air 1' and 'On Air 2' lights which are connected to reed relays driven by the input channel logic. Three spare XLR connectors are included for use by the user. A 9-pin D-sub connector provides RS232 connection to a PC , for remote computer configuration and displaying metering information. A separate 9-pin D-sub connector is provided for connecting to external hardware meters.
