Product Overview
Prism 8x8 Dante features eight balanced switchable mic or line level inputs and eight balanced line outs plus 128 channel (64x64) Dante audio capability. The analog input and output count may be increased by adding Symetrix Dante-enabled xIn 4, xIO 4×4, xOut 4, xIn 12, and xOut 12 analog I/O expanders (sold separately). Dante integration ensures quick and easy implementaion, control, and maintenance of networked DSPs and Dante-enabled accessories such as microphones, loudspeakers, power amps, and mixing consoles (sold separately). Powered by Symetrix's award-winning open-architecture CAD application Composer, programming Prism is easy and flexible. Unique to Composer is the ability to natively configure Symetrix and select third-party Dante hardware (sold separately) thereby eliminating the confusion of multiple or redundant software applications. Multiple control options include low-cost Symetrix ARC wall panels and an easy-to-generate SymVue Windows virtual GUI. The human-readable Composer Control Protocol supports the programming of third-party touch screens and control devices. Prism’s embedded web server displays I/O levels, diagnostics data, and hosts ARC-WEB – a browser-based interface for smartphones, tablets, and computers. Prism 8×8 has been designed using standard 19” x 1U enclosures. (Surface and rack mount kits sold separately.)
