Overview
The DMX-P01 is a portable digital
mixer designed for professional
electronic news gathering (ENG) and
electronic field production (EFP). The
DMX-P01 has a compact, lightweight
body designed to be used in field
production, making it ideal for use
with digital video and audio recording
media such as a camcorder and
microphones, and so on.
The DMX-P01 has the following
features.
High quality audio signal
processing
The unit allows you to select a
sampling frequency of either 48 kHz
or 96 kHz
The unit converts an analog signal to a
24-bit digital signal and outputs an
AES3 format (AES/EBU connector)
or an IEC60958 format (S/PDIF
coaxial connector) digital audio signal.
This enables to record the sound with
excellent sound quality using digital
peripheral equipment such as a
portable recorder corresponding to an
96-kHz sampling frequency.
4 microphone/line inputs/2
balanced outputs
The unit is equipped with 4
microphone/line inputs and 2 outputs,
all with XLR type balanced
connectors. Furthermore, digital AES/
EBU output (stereo) with XLR
connectors and IEC60958 format
digital output with a coaxial connector
are provided.
Digital cascade
Since the unit is equipped with coaxial
input/output connectors, DMX-P01
mixers can be cascaded using one
coaxial cable, for applications
requiring additional inputs.
LCD panel for various
displays and easy setup
The LCD panel enables the unit to
display the level meter. battery
remaining amount, or cumulative time
in use.
The level meter can be easily chosen
from among a VU, a dBFS or four
types of PPM meters.
Setup menus displayed on the LCD
allow to easily change various
parameter settings.
Also, since a heater is built into the
LCD, the heated LCD displays
normally, even at low temperature.
High quality digital limiters/
compressors
The unit is equipped with digital
limiters at the input and both digital
compressor/limiters at the output.
Using these features, the unit can
provide highly stable audio recording.
Scene storing/recalling
The unit allows to store up to ten
different parameter settings such as
panel-lock, parameter lock, and so on,
as a scene file. Recalling the desired
scene file switches the operating
parameters of the unit immediately.
