Soundking DM20

Digital Mixing Desk - 16 Input - 8 Output Touch Screen, Motorized Faders

Overview

Soundking DM20 Digital Mixing Console

The Soundking DM20 is a digital mixer designed for live performance mixing in the modern age. Touch screen control and wireless iPad connectivity give ease of control, while motorized faders and scene saving and selection allow for effortless show setup. Signal and effect processing is taken care of onboard the DM20, so there is no need for external rack equipment or patching. The DM20 is an ideal mixing desk for bands that mix themselves or sound technicians mixing multiple bands.

12x Microphone Inputs and 8x Customisable XLR Outputs

The Soundking DM20 has 12 Mic Inputs with quality mic preamps, with 4 channels (9-12) being combo jacks allowing for mic or line signal connections. Channels 13 to 16 are stereo line level inputs for devices such as keyboards and electronic drums. The 8 XLR outputs on the back of the DM20 are fully customisable and can be routed to any internal signal bus. For example allowing for 2 main L/R outputs and 6 AUX (auxiliary) outputs. S/PDIF input/output and AES/EBU output allows for digital audio connections.

7" Touch Screen,  Large Master Control Knob, Motorized Faders

Featuring a 1200x600mm touchscreen for controlling all aspects of the mixing desk. Like any modern touchscreen, it is responsive to touch and easy to use. The large master control knob is perfect for fine-tuning dB settings and can be used in conjunction with the touchscreen with ease for quick and accurate mixing. The high quality ALPS motorized faders respond instantly to selection changes allowing the user to switch between channels 1-8, 9-16, 8-bus or 8-out at any time, while always landing at their precise location.

Input Channel Compressor, Parametric EQ, Gate

The dynamic stage of the DM20 features a Parametric EQ, Noise Gate and Compressor. The 4-band parametric EQ is on each input and bus channel allowing for perfect equalization that can be saved and shared between channels. The noise gate and compressor are designed for live performance and are fully featured to industry standard.

8 Effects Modules - 2 Reverb, 2 Modulation, 2 Delays, 2 GEQ

Effects processing is taken care of with 8 FX modules that any of the input signals or bus sends can be routed to for side chain processing. The 2x 15-Band Graphic EQ (GEQ) is perfect for processing the main L/R FOH output to suit the room / venue. While the reverb and modulation effect options are extensive and highly customisable to suit the needs of any musician.

10 Signal Busses - 4 Mono, 4 Stereo, L/R, Headphones

The 10 internal signal buses allow for routing any of the input signals into a bus for group signal processing the output. The BUS button activates the faders to control the volume the bus sends. Each bus can be routed to any of the 8 outputs. 

Wireless Operation via iPad

Control the DM20 wirelessly using an iPad (not included) and the DM20 App. Use the included USB WIFI adapter or an external router. The DM20 iOS app is available here.

High Definition Digital Audio Processing with 4th Generation DSP

DM20 adopts a 4th generation SHARC floating point processor, which delivers unrivaled DSP signal processing quality compared to other similar digital consoles. This SHARC processor ensures quality, but also reliability and stability for mixing multiple I/O when loaded with effects and processing. Each channel has an individual processing mode i.e. there is no extra load on the DSP just because you are processing on multiple channels. This intelligent processing keeps the latency under 2ms (unnoticeable) at all times. 

Save Scenes for Future Recall

Similar to its CADAC digital mixer counterparts, the DM20 also is equipped with scene memory capability.  This allows all settings on the DM20 to be saved and recalled for future use. You can save scenes to a USB and transfer to a different DM20. Having this function saves hours of sound checking and gives you the ability to have consistent sound without the need of a qualified sound engineer for every show.



DM20 created through cooperation between Soundking and CADAC

The DM20 is the result of many years of R&D by Soundking. They have combined their experience with audio signal processing and manufacturing, with the knowledge and proprietary technology from a partner and industry pioneer CADAC to produce the DM20. The result is a digital console with all the features and high quality signal processing expected of the modern digital mixer, delivered at a price point that offers unrivaled value.
