Allen & Heath AH-DLIVE-DX32 dLive DX32 Modular Expander

The ideal addition to any installed sound system, the dLive DX32 Modular Expander from Allen & Heath adds remote, modular I/O to a dLive, AHM-64, Avantis, or SQ system, giving you easy scalability to expand your connectivity to fit the size of the venue. The DX32 provides 4x8 channel slots for customizable inputs and outputs for any combination of analog or digital equipment.

The DX32 carries up to 32x32 channels of uncompressed audio (at 96kHz) and control data. It also features automatic firmware updates when the system powers up, making corrections to firmware mismatches if they are detected—and thus making your job that much easier.
