1. INTRODUCTION
First of all, we like to thank you for and congratulate you on buying a DYNACORD DRM 4000 8-in-2 Audio
Mixer & Router. To ensure optimal performance and to minimize the risk of damaging the appliance
through erroneous operation, please make sure to read this owner’s manual carefully before operating
the DRM 4000.
1.1 DRM 4000 CHARACTERISTICS
The DRM 4000 is a rack-mixer and/or audio signal router offering 8 audio inputs and 2 audio outputs. The
inputs are divided into 4 MIC/LINE channels and 4 AUX channels. Each input channel can be freely
assigned to either one or both output channels, offering Mono 2-Channel operation as well as Stereo
operation modes.
The DRM 4000 can be used as a pre-mixer for the DPM 4000, expanding the amount of available input
channels. DRM 4000 and DPM 4000 are linked via remote-interface. Priority functions, preset switching
and routing are easy to configure and operate. The DRM 4000 Mixer & Router can also be used as
stand-alone unit for simple sound reinforcement tasks, e.g. in a multimedia set-up, as well as for
straightforward intercom installations.
Field of Application
•
Pre-mixer to the DPM 4000 for connecting several switchable audio signal sources and microphones
with priority or mixing function
•
