Digico SD9 96 Input Digital Mixing Console

Digico SD9 96 Input Digital Mixing Console DiGiCo SD9: Compact, affordable, extraordinary Compact in size but big on features, the DiGiCo SD9 brings the strength of Stealth Digital Processing and floating point Super FPGA technology to an exceptionally accessible price point.

Coupling the speed and efficiency of DiGiCo’s renowned workflow to the lightweight, small-footprint construction of a desk that fits every application, the fully integrated SD9 is as effective on the road as it is in a theatre, conference centre or house of worship Built for efficient and familiar operation, the SD9 work surface puts 24 touch-sensitive, motorised faders at your fingertips plus quick access function buttons within easy reach.

A 15-inch, high resolution backlit TFT LCD touchscreen provides ease-of-use and at a glance operation, while dedicated multi-function control knobs and electronic labelling ensures the show is always a success Welcome to the SD9 – your introduction to extraordinary high-end performance.

Under The Hood Boasting 96 channels at 48kHz/96kHz, the SD9 delivers a wealth of functionality Standard channel processing (inputs and outputs) includes Channel Delay, Single and Multi-Channel Presets, Hi- and Lo-pass filters @ 24dB/octave, four-band parametric EQ with band curve selection, Dual insert points, DiGiCo’s DYN 1 (Compressor, De-esser or Multi Band Compressor) and DYN 2 (Gate, Compressor or Ducker).

Also onboard are 155 Dynamic EQ processors which can be assigned to any of the input or output channels; 155 Multiband Compressors and 155 DiGiTuBes All channels deliver the same pure signal path and feature set, so no matter how you set up your console, you never lose any resources.

Within the master section are 16 gangable 32 band graphic EQs, 12 stereo effects (selectable from a palette of 33), and 12 control groups (VCAs) Using snapshots, engineers can switch between complete configurations at a touch.

The SD9’s 48 busses are all assignable as groups or auxiliary busses while further configurability comes courtesy of a 12×8 output matrix, dual solo busses, and a Master buss Unlike all other digital console manufacturers, you don’t lose Aux or Group Busses when using the Matrix as they are in addition, including the Master buss.

I/O The SD9’s vast local I/O section offers eight mic inputs, eight line outs, four mono AES/EBU, one MADI port, and two dedicated D-Rack Ports As standard, every SD9 is accompanied by a D-Rack, with 32-inputs and eight outputs (extendable to 16).

A second D-Rack can be connected for a total of 72 mic inputs 96 Input Channels 48 Aux / Sub-Group Busses LR/LCR Master Buss 12 x 8 Full Processing Matrix 155 Dynamic Equalizers 48/96kHz Sample Rate Specifications : Faders:: 24 x 100mm Touch-sensitive, motorised Screens:: 1 x 15” (38cm) LCD high – resolution touch screen Meters:: 24 x 8-Segment LED bargraph Input Channels:: 96 Input Channels 48 Aux/ Sub-Group Busses Solo Busses: 2 Stereo Busses Matrix: 12 x 8 Matrix (additional to busses above) Control Groups: 12, Selectable for VCA-style, Moving Fader, Mute Group Graphic EQ: 16 x 32-band, Gain +/- 12dB Internal FX: 12 Stereo FX Processors Local I/O: 8 x Mic/Line I/O, 4 x AES/EBU: I/O (Mono) MADI Interface: In / Out Optional Optics MIDI Interface: In / Out / Thru VGA Port: DB-15 Mini-Female (1024 x 768 Resolution) USB Ports 3 x USB2 Light Connection 2 x XLR3 1.2 – 12V Ext Sync: Word Clock, MADI Headphone: TRS Unbalanced / 8-600 Ohms 1/4 Inch Jack GPI: 2 x 1/4” Jack GPO: 2 x 1/4” Jack SD9 Dimensions: 878mm (w) x 785mm (d) x 262mm (h) SD9 Weight: 36Kg (105Kg with optional flightcase) SD9 Flightcase: 1063mm (w) x 1131mm (h) x 472mm (d) (Optional): SD9 Power: 90-264 VAC, 47-63Hz Auto Sensing.
