INTRODUCTION

INTRODUCTION    

 
Taking on board all the welcome feedback we have received over the years about the DS800, 
we’ve redesigned our famous mic/line distribution system “from the ground up”, and are 
proud to introduce the DS8000. 
 
Featuring all new microphone pre-amps designed by Gottlier award winning Alex Cooper, the 
DS8000 offers many novel facilities including a dual redundant power supply, simple Outside 
Broadcast “one to many” split switching and 48V “safe” functions to prevent tampering. 
 
Subtle panel lighting for dark under-stage environments and the option of adding an ADC 
card for integration into digital networks, plus bespoke new output transformers all combine 
to produce a package that enhances its predecessor’s reputation as a flexible, rugged high 
quality distribution system. 
 
The DS8000 is a 2U, 8 input to 32 output mic/line distribution system with 16 transformer 
balanced isolated outputs, and 16 electronically balanced outputs fitted as standard.  Input 
transformers can be ordered as an option, as can the replacement of the electronically 
balanced outputs with transformer balanced outputs. 
 
Additionally, the “D” version of the unit can be factory fitted (non-retrofittable) with an AES 
output card that combines “XTA-grade” performance analogue to digital converters with 
microprocessor controlled digital output capabilities, providing two sets of independent AES 
digital outs with adjustable sample rate, and internal/external word clock sync capability.
