These remote I/O interfaces utilise DANTE to operate in conjunction with compatible Yamaha mixing consoles. Once implemented the operator gains remote inputs and/or outputs away from the front of house mixing console yet maintain full digital control of the signal processing.
Tio1608-D2 is a Dante-compatible I/O rack equipped with 16 mic/line inputs and 8 line outputs. It can control gain from TF Series and DM3 consoles remotely, allowing the construction of a stage¬box system. Tio1608-D2 also supports 96k, making it useful as an I/O rack in large installations with products such as the RIVAGE PM or DME7. Sampling rates of 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz and 96kHz are supported in the Tio1608-D2.
The Dante audio network standard is utilized in the DM3 and TF series, as well as in the CL and QL digital mixers. Up to three Tio1608-D2s can be used in combination with a TF series console with optional NY64-D expansion card, while only a single Tio1608-D2 is compatible with the DM3. These consoles can be freely combined with the Tio1608-D2 or an R series I/O rack to create a system that matches the required scale and budget. Patching can be enabled via ‘Dante Controller’ while Remote HA can be controlled by ‘R Remote’ software.
Power consumption: 50W. Dimensions: 2U, 480 x 88 x 364mm (WxHxD). Weight: 5.7kg.
Yamaha's Rio1608-D2 is a 3U rack-mountable, remote I/O, designed to work seamlessly alongside QL and CL ranges of digital mixing consoles as well as RIVAGE and PM series consoles. With 16 balanced analogue XLR inputs and 8 balanced XLR outputs the Rio1608-D2 can be utilised as a stage box to reduce the audio cable runs to the front of house mixer. Equally it could be positioned in the live room of a studio with the benefits of a single DANTE network cable run back to the control room console. The DANTE network protocol gives flexibility in terms of scalability whereby a user can link multiple Rio interfaces to their QL mixing console to increase the number of I/O connections available.
Sampling rates of 44.1kHz, 48kHz, 88.2kHz and 96kHz are supported in the Rio1608-D2 and across the R series I/O racks. To retain a consistently transmitted sound level when multiple compatible mixing consoles are connected to a single Rio1608-D2, a digital-stage gain compensation feature automatically compensates for analogue gain adjustments made by the operator. Operation can be handled without the need for a QL series console via the R Remote application for Mac OS X.
Power consumption: 72W. Dimensions: 3U, 480 x 132 x 368mm (WxHxD). Weight: 9.6kg.
RIO3224-D2
Rio3224-D2 has all the functionality of the Rio1608-D2 however it features a total of 32 analogue inputs with XLR3-31 type connections, and 16 analogue outputs plus 8 (4 stereo) 24bit AES/EBU outputs with balanced XLR-3-32 type connections. The Rio3224-D2 is rack-mountable and requires 5U vertical rack space.
Power consumption: 120W. Dimensions: 5U, 480 x 220 x 368mm (WxHxD). Weight: 13.5kg.
Ri8-D DANTE interface has many of the same features as the Rio1608-D, however this 1U rack mountable DANTE input interface has 8 analogue inputs on 3-pin XLR. This unit does not offer any outputs.
Power consumption: 35W. Dimensions: 1U, 480 x 44 x 362mm (WxHxD). Weight: 4.5kg.
